MESSAGE

Many live today as though there is no end. They live in constant wickedness and greed forgetting that it is appointed unto men to die once and after that is the judgment (Hebrews 9:27). Because people are not prepared for judgment, it is obvious that many will find themselves to blame when they appear before the judgment throne.

Paul in His letter to the Corinthians declared that every one of us, Christians and non-Christians must appear before the judgment seat of Christ to give account for how they spend their lives.

The Lord in the book of Revelations declares it this way: “Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. Revelation 22:12 NKJV

The truth is that there is nothing that men does that has no reward. Galatians 6:7-8 says that a man can only fool himself but not God, that everything a man sow He will reap. Those who sow unto themsel rightsounes will reap the fruit of righteousness and those who sow to the corrupt desire of the natural man will reap the consequences of fleshy life.

How are you living your life friend? Today, we see man believer live such an unchristian life that puts them in the league of non-christians. Some are so indiciplined and unfaithful that you can not differentiate them from every other person. Such persons should know that reward is coming and they can not escape the judgment that will follow.

Are you are pretender, living a double life? Even if nobody sees your shady dark life, can you hide from God? Everything is opened before the eyes of your Maker and He will reward you accordingly. Whatever lifestyle a person may be indulge in will bring either good or evil consequence. Sin will only send a man to everlasting reproach, therefore you must repent and desist from every sinful habits and lifestyles that may put you in trouble on that great and terrible day.

Believer who are walking straight and uprightly must take heed and be watchful because only those who are endure till the end shall be saved.

REFLECTION

Then they will see the Son of Man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

Mark 13:26 NKJV

Jesus coming soon, do you believe? Are you prepared for His coming? Whether men likes it or not, Jesus will come, the only question is if you be found in Him.

PRAYER

Father, please help me to be found in your when you return to rapture the church.
