I've been a christian my entire life, right now i'm a college student studying business but recently i've realized even though i've stayed away from drinking/some sin/trends of my generation i really haven't seeked after god and truly put my life focused on him/his word.
Anyhow recently i've been praying/reading the word with all of my focus, and i feel like god spoke to me last night, about his judgment, and i almost felt like my stomach sank, as in i needed to preach this message to the world, that we are in the last days and we need to rise up as christians and really understand god's calling, his judgment and realize that the church/christian's are falling from his ways.
I woke up today and felt like a new man, i don't even looka t life the same way anymore, money/riches/popularity everything doesnt matter and it's just a weird feeling, i alsmot feel this urgency to go and preach this key point of his judgment but i dont know if i should go into ministry or not.
anyhow..

my own parents have thought his ludacris and said i need to focus on my grades/school etc, and i was shocked to hear my dad tell me i shouldn't take my bible out before class cuz my college isin't a religious school, and he said i needed to get "balance"in my life, when all i was sayin is recently i've really had a fire lit for god and i never thought my rents would get angry over this and not talk to me and etc etc. point being i dont know but i really feel like we are in the last days, becuase if you look at the church/christian walk, it's fading and the signs are so clear to me..anyone else feeling this right now?

Thank you all so much for that. I mean it's just a tough thing when the rock/i.e. your parents who you thought believed the same way don't really react. My own father called me back tonight and said, son "i dont think you should take your bible out in class, esp since it's not even a religious institution" to which i couldn't comprehend. But I know god is almighty and i just need to seek him and understand that it's more important to listent to your spirit/god, and seek his understanding than worry about being rich/degree or anything this temporary life can afford us.
god bless yall and thanks for the words.

My opinion is that if God has spoken to you and totally changed your heart and your mind as you said then you are on the right path. While your parents reactions were shocking.... dont let that get to you too much... Let God continue to have the control of your path in this life and everything will fall into place. The devil is angry that you are choosing to do what God has appointed you to do and is trying to attack by using your parents. But what we know as belivers is that God has already won the battle and satin has no power.
Just continue to do what you are doing.... praying and reaching out to God .... that is what God wants. He will show you the way and guide you down your path. You are on fire for the Lord and stay close to Him so it doesnt dim. Feel blessed that God has called upon you to preach....
May God continue to Bless you along your way...

Follow God's leading on your life, even when it does not seem "logical" to others. However, proclaiming His Word could take many forms, not just that of being a pastor.
Pray for God's direction on this call on your life. He will open doors of service if you are willing to follow.

Serve God fervently. You must not ignore His speaking to you or you may never hear from Him again. Do not get involved in religion, avoid churches. Seek out and serve God as he leads you.

I think he was telling you to just be vigilant because we are heading into the last days and it will be very confusing for those who are not confirmed in his grace and it will be easy for people to be deceived about many things.
