In those days, John the Baptist appeared in the wilderness of Judea, proclaiming, “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven has come near.” Matthew 3:1

My brothers and sisters in Christ, Scripture reminds us that, John the Baptist was the prophet whom Isaiah spoke about when he said, “The voice of one crying in the wilderness, prepare the way of the Lord, make his paths straight!” But who is the one who is crying out to us, begging us to repent, to prepare the way of the Lord, and to make straight his paths? God has sent us many messengers, but many of us refuse to listen, and to repent, or to make straight the paths of the Lord; but I am here to remind you, that we living in wilderness times, and there are messengers begging us to repent, to prepare a home in our hearts for God, where he may abide. My brothers and sisters in Christ, let us ask God to remove anything that is preventing, us from making our paths straight for our God.
