WHAT IS YOUR TEMPERATURE?

In Scriptures, there are only 3 spiritual temperatures that you and I can live as:

1- Cold. If you are spiritually cold, you are dead to the things of God. The Lord is not first place in your life, you don't care to hear him, nor do you have any interest in Him. When you are spiritually cold, you refuse the gentle, yet strong convictions of the Holy Spirit. In fact, you may not even feel convicted by things that are not pleasing to the Lord. A cold heart is heart that is dead.

2- Lukewarm. You may think this is better than being cold, but the word says that one who is lukewarm is makes God sick. If you are lukewarm, you are saved but like the world. You are not completely abandoned or surrendered to God. You like what you like and you make your own decisions in life, leaving God at a distance. You are unwilling to get very close to Jesus. In fact, one foot is in the Lord, and one is in the world. If you are lukewarm, you are ineffective for the Kingdom of God. Though you brag of your relationship with God, no one is attracted to this God of yours. The verdict is in the evidence of your lukewarm temperature.

3- Hot. This is God's will and desire for you. In fact, He wants this to be your desire. The Bible says in the book of Acts that Apollos' temperature for the Lord was fiery hot! He had great passion for the Lord and it was evident in his passion to teach the Word. His life was Christ. When you are fiery hot spiritually, you surrender and obey, not matter what. You look different than the world. Your convictions overcome compromise. Your life is Christ, not wrapped up in yourself. People are attracted to this Savior of yours. You refuse to be private about the Lord, but are unashamed of the gospel.
