Brethren, the end is here and the Master is returning for us just as he promised in Revelation 22:12. “And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward [is] with me, to give every man according as his work shall be”. Will He find you worthy to spend eternity with Him? Or will you spend your eternity in exile with Satan and all his angels?
Every now and again in a vision, the LORD would often weep for those on the path to destruction. One time, He showed me a vision of hell and people from from all works of life; both great and small were queuing to enter the flames of hell. I saw idolaters, liars, adulterers, fornicators and murderers go in to hell. There was weeping and terrifying screams. Brethren it is most terrifying to fall into the hands of Almighty GOD (Hebrews 10:31)-“It is a dreadful thing to fall into the hands of the living God”.
GOD is JUST and Justice demands punishment for sin. But if you will only believe in Jesus, the saviour and live according to His commands then you will escape the judgement of GOD that is coming. Brethren, belief in Jesus alone is insufficient but we must live by the word of GOD. We must forsake sin and become the salt and light of the world (Matthew 5: 13-16). It says “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.
You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven”. Also in Matthew 7:21; he says “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only the one who does the will of my Father who is in heaven”. So we must ensure that we confess our sins unto GOD and do away with all unrighteousness, so that when the Bridegroom comes He may delight in you. Brethren, good works alone cannot save us for without holiness no eye shall see GOD (Hebrews 12:14). Isaiah 35:8 also states “And a highway will be there; it will be called the Way of Holiness; it will be for those who walk on that Way. The unclean will not journey on it; wicked fools will not go about on it”. We must do all we can to go through the narrow gate and Jesus is the only way to The Father. Any other way will lead us to destruction and death.
How are you living your life? Are you living a double life? There is a high risk that most of us “Christians” will miss out of the kingdom of GOD. This could be due to unbelief, lies, secret sins, unforgiveness e.t.c. Some of us have become reckless in the way we live; in that we no longer have the fear of GOD. We are constantly living below the standard of God's Word and there are believers who are unforgiving, adulterous/ fornicators, liars, ungodly e.t.c who erroneously believe that GOD will overlook their sins simply because they profess Christ. But this is far from the truth. The bible says in (Revelation 21:8) “But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—they will be consigned to the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death”.
Remember, We shall all stand before the Judgement seat of Christ (2nd Corinthians 5:10) “For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ, so that each of us may receive what is due us for the things done while in the body, whether good or bad”.
Finally, Jesus is calling out to you. He is the ultimate insurance/ assurance that will never fail. Confess your sins and repent and He will show you mercy. He will be your GOD and you will be His son/daughter. Reject Him and you will spend eternity in hell. Brethren, I cannot stress this enough; HELL IS REAL- It is a real place and it is terrifying, bereft of the presence and love of GOD. It is Eternal and it is Final. To you my brethren in Christ, you must ensure that you are ready to give a good account when the Master returns. We must endeavour to put aside all meaningless strife and malice so that nothing will keep us from the inheritance that the LORD has reserved for those who love Him (Colossians 1:9-15) “For this reason, since the day we heard about you, we have not stopped praying for you. We continually ask God to fill you with the knowledge of his will through all the wisdom and understanding that the Spirit gives, so that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened with all power according to his glorious might so that you may have great endurance and patience, and giving joyful thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of his holy people in the kingdom of light. For he has rescued us from the dominion of darkness and brought us into the kingdom of the Son he loves, in whom we have redemption, the forgiveness of sins”.
Won’t you come to Jesus?; He is waiting with open arms to embrace you. He is the only way to the Father. He loves you dearly; that is why He died for you so that you may have life. Brother, sister there is no life outside of Christ. Call on Him earnestly; He will answer you. Confess your sins sincerely; He will forgive you. Abide in Him and He will Abide in you.
Brethren, you are now part of Jesus’ family. I recommend you join a bible believing church so you can be taught the way of truth. You should also get a bible, it is the Word of GOD and key to the Kingdom. Read it; meditate on it day and night; and put it to practice.(James 1:22-25) “Do not merely listen to the word, and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says. Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like someone who looks at his face in a mirror and, after looking at himself, goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. But whoever looks intently into the perfect law that gives freedom, and continues in it—not forgetting what they have heard, but doing it—they will be blessed in what they do”.
AND REMEMBER JESUS IS COMING SOON. SHALOM.
I am coming soon. Hold on to what you have, so that no one will take your crown.(Revelation 3:11)
