Isaiah 55:6-7 ~ 6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. KJV
Sinner, what are you waiting for?
The night is coming and soon it will be too late to be saved. On that day when God
sends Jesus to call His bride “home”, it will be too late. You cannot live like
the devil and then on that day ask for salvation, it will be too late. Realize you are a sinner without salvation going to hell, then turn to Jesus, ask for forgiveness, invite Him into your heart as your Saviour!
Jeremiah 8:20 The harvest is past, the summer is ended, and we are not
saved.
Genesis 7:16 – And they that went in, went in male and female of all
flesh, as God had commanded him: and the Lord shut him in.
There may be someone reading this who has put off salvation for a later date or even completely. There may be someone who has been riding on the grace, mercy, and longsuffering of God their whole life. You may hate God, you may despise God, you may do everything you do in opposition to God – the very God whose existence you may deny, the very God who gives you the breath to curse Him and the ability to do wickedly despite Him. Every good thing comes from God; God rains on the just and the unjust. Things may be going well for you currently. You may be set for life, or so you think. You may not see a need to be saved. You may be like the men of Athens – And when they heard of the resurrection of the dead, some mocked: and others said, We will hear thee again of this matter. – Acts 17:32. You may be like Agrippa, Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian. – Acts 26:28.
Maybe
you conveniently excuse your refusal of salvation through justification of what
you see in professing Christians. This is not a valid excuse for not being saved, either. Everyone will give an account to
God, no one will escape. God spared not the angels, God spared not Sodom, God
spared not the old world which was destroyed in Noah’s flood and God will not
spare this current world. Be sure of this one thing, God’s wrath and judgement
is coming to this world. They will say peace and safety, they will be going
about business as per usual, they will be marrying and giving in marriage, they
will be eating, drinking, and partying. They will know not until the day of the
Lord comes like a thief in the night. Maybe you just think you can live
your life how you want now and worry about where you’re heading later or negotiate it when you get there.
If so, you have got it all wrong. The Bible is very clear that there
comes a time when it is too late to be saved. 2 Corinthians 6:2
– For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of
salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now
is the day of salvation.
When God stops dealing with you, it’s over. There is a time for every unbeliever when it is too late. Only God knows the time, it is not for me or any man to say. I can only imagine the sheer terror of realizing I have refused God one too many times.
If you refuse
today for the first or hundredth time, ask yourself, was this the last time God
dealt with me?
Revelation
22:17 – And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say,
Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the
water of life freely.
HE LOVES US!
