It's Your Choice Heaven Or Hell

It’s Your Choice
Heaven or Hell?
By Charlene Crooms

Revelation 3:14-22
14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;
15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot: I would thou wert cold or hot.
16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.
17 Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked:
18 I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire, that thou mayest be rich; and white raiment, that thou mayest be clothed, and that the shame of thy nakedness do not appear; and anoint thine eyes with eyesalve, that thou mayest see.
19 As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore, and repent.
20 Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
21 To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
22 He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.
It’s your choice your decision Hot or Cold. Are you going to open the door or will you continue to leave the Do Not Disturb Sign Out.
The decision is yours. I looked up the word Decision in the Webster Dictionary Decision: the act of deciding or settling a dispute or question. The acts of making up ones mind a judgment or conclusion.
My Pastor taught us that the miracle comes after the message. And today I proclaim my miracle. He said that our ability to hear God’s voice gives us the option to obey. He told us to listen to what God is telling us and to act on it.
In my spirit I was hearing God saying Turn Around. I could hear John speaking Matthew 3:2 Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand. In my spirit I begin to see John baptizing in the Jordan River and the people openly confessing their sins.
I could hear Nickademous asking what must I do to enter the Kingdom OF Heaven and the spirit saying you must be Born Again.
I began to pray and ask for forgiveness. And saying to my self I’ve already been baptized and the spirit spoke and said to me 1 time was for the Father when you excepted Christ 1 time was for the Son for the remission of your sins and to receive the Holy Spirit. 1 time is so you can be cleansed and Born Again.
Your body is the temple of the lords and my spirit can not dwell in an unclean place. That right there is going to mess a lot of tradition up cause the old folks would say you need only be baptized 1 time. But I had to be real with God many of us was baptized as a child and I don’t know about you but since then I myself have committed many sins and I needed to be cleansed again.


Hebrews 3:15
15 While it is said, To day if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts, as in the provocation.
16 For some, when they had heard, did provoke: howbeit not all that came out of Egypt by Moses.
17 But with whom was he grieved forty years? was it not with them that had sinned, whose carcases fell in the wilderness?
18 And to whom swear he that they should not enter into his rest, but to them that believed not?
19 So we see that they could not enter in because of unbelief.

We hear his voice by spending time in his word. Picking up your bible on Sunday morning and Bible Study night is not considered as spending time in his word. We must study the word in order for us to renew our minds and our spirits. So with an open heart I asked what must I study to find the true meaning of being Born Again how do I become this new being that the word says I can be.
The Spirit said to be Born Again is to become like a new born baby in Christ to be born again is to put away the old things the old habits in order to become a new person but a lot of us don’t want to let go of the old things or the old habits. I know I had a lot of habits a lot of things in my life: weed, alcohol, crack cocaine, clubbing, fornication but
I’m so glad Jesus took all that (x) and lifted me up from the old me and gave me his (t) cross. Because you do know when you take an x and stand it up straight it becomes a cross. Jesus said pick up your cross and follow me.
But to be Born Again is like becoming a new born baby spiritually because you have to learn everything about Jesus all over again. See a lot of us need to let go of big momma’s religion and what papa thought was church was not necessarily church. God says he is not looking for religion but a close and personal relationship with us.

The spirit comes to teach you all things of the gospel and to be born again is to have spiritual eyesight because the natural man can and will not know and understand the things of God. Wonder why your life is not prospering? Go get you eyes checked. I don’t know about you but after all the hell I been through I told the Lord I needed me some bifocals because I want to be able to see what thus said the Lord.
Many say that the church has lost its power but I tell you that if the church will began to take its focus off its members and put it back on the ministry. Stop building Mega Churches and start building Mega Ministries. Then and only then will the world come running asking what must it do to be saved.
I began to hear the spirit saying come and let me teach and train you so that you can go out and spread my gospel. Can you hear Jesus saying in Matthew 4:19 And he saith unto them, Follow me, and I will make you fishers of men. Many believers don’t want to go fishing. They’re satisfied by just rolling up to the fish market (church) and have their fish all ready and prepared for them.


Watch what you put into your mouth and watch what goes into your spirit. We are letting too much junk and not enough Christ (the real bread) in our bodies.
We wonder why we get sick all the time and were always stressed out. In order to guard your spirit you must first put on the full armor of God.
I was lead further into studying and then I began to study the book of Job and as I studied in my spirit I began to hear Job 42:12 12 So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: and I received that but can I keep it real for just a moment I was like Lord did I have to read and study the whole 42 chapters to get that down in my spirit. And the spirit answered and said chapters 3- 41 was for purpose.
There’s always going to be some one that’s going to be like Job friends that’s go question your ministry and I want you to be able to handle it just like JOB did.
I have given you an unusual anointing and for those that need conformation when you was baptized the first time for the Father he gave you and unusual scripture to carry he predestined Ephesians 6:19 for you 19 And for me, that utterance may be given unto me, that I may open my mouth boldly, to make known the mystery of the gospel,
So today I proclaim I passed Inspection my Check Engine light is no longer on. The Lord took the old me and made me New; a new Woman of God.
He took away the old me and he moved the old habits away from me. He showed me how to give up the worlds high for a higher dimension. He showed me how to give up the lust of the world for the love and lust of Christ. I don’t know about you but I was sick and tired of playing church. Sick and tired of coming to church and going home the same way.
Our First Lady taught us how to be a dream girl and I don’t know about any of you but once I left and change my old life I was determined not to be the same old me. How many of you today are tired of carrying the weight of the world on your shoulders?
Choose Ye This Day Whom You Will Serve Or You Going To Be Hot or Cold cause I don’t know about you but I was tired of being lukewarm, tired of being depressed, tired of being stressed, tired of the heart breaks and the heartaches.
I now know a man named Jesus and whomever the son sets free is free indeed. Has the world lost its power in your lives? The word says if my people who are called by my name would humble themselves and turn from their wicked ways, then shall I hear from heaven and heal their lands.
I don’t know about you but that don’t sound like he’s talking to the non believers. It sounds to me like he’s speaking to the church.
Jesus said not all that will say Lord, Lord will enter into the Kingdom of heaven. You better check your motives today because no man knows the day or the hour of Jesus’ return. I don’t know about you but I have a home way beyond this home. I have a place reserved for me at the right hand of my father.
It’s your choice: Hot or Cold?
