Don't Wait Another Minute!
Saturday's Devotion (1-10-04)
"Seek ye the LORD while he
may be found, call ye upon him while he is near: 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." Isaiah
55:6-7 (KJV)
Many people like
to reject the Lord and they think stuff like, "I'll just repent of my sins,
after I die or before I die!" However, you only get this life time to accept the
Lord. After this life is over and you haven't accepted Jesus, you will not be
able to beg for the mercy of the Lord. Well, you can try, but no mercy will be
found. You have this life time and if you don't accept the Lord, you will end up
going to Hell. That's what the Bible teaches in so many words. Hell, is eternal
torture and there is no pleasure there. These scriptures tell us, to call upon
the Lord, while we can and to come to Him and he will pardon our sins and show
mercy to us. If you think that you're just going to ask for mercy before you
die, think about this: How do you know when you're going to die? Don't a lot of
people die in their sleep? Wouldn't you hate to chance that and go to sleep and
then wake up in Hell? I don't mean to scare anyone, I just want to bring up
these few valid points. You can go to sleep and be assured that if you die,
you'll awake with the Lord, in a joyful place! You can have that assurance and
security, by accepting Jesus, into your heart right now. Don't wait another
minute, because you don't know what a minute can bring. It's scary to think
about, "What if I would've died before I accepted the Lord? I'd be in trouble!"
That's why it's important for me to mention this. Because there are so many
people, that just need the truth brought to their attention and they can be
saved. However, not many accept the truth and they deny Jesus, until the day
they die. Once you die, it's too late. Are you going to make a mistake of
waiting another day or even another minute? Today and right now, is the time for
you to accept the Lord!
