Topic : The Need To Prepare.

Memory Verse :2 Peter 3:11. Since all these things will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people should you be? Your lives should be holy and dedicated to God,

Bible Reading : 2 Peter 3:8-10 GNB. Key Verse : v9.

But do not forget one thing, my dear friends! There is no difference in the Lord’s sight between one day and a thousand years; to him the two are the same. The Lord is not slow to do what he has promised, as some think. Instead, he is patient with you, because he does not want anyone to be destroyed, but wants all to turn away from their sins. But the Day of the Lord will come like a thief. On that Day the heavens will disappear with a shrill noise, the heavenly bodies will burn up and be destroyed, and the earth with everything in it will vanish.

Jesus came to the earth the first time as a lamb of God and sacrificed himself on the cross of calvary for the sin of the whole world. Yet not all men believe in the work of redemption as finished by him, right there on the cross. This finished work can only be effective in our lives when we recognise and accept him as saviour, so that he can be Lord of our lives. When men reject him, they reject God’s plan for salvation which leaves them with no choice but to suffer condemnation at the end when he shall return. His return to the earth or second coming is an event that will shock the whole earth to the marrow. Now, he is coming back to the earth to reward those who believed in and serve him on one hand and to judge and punish those who rejected the salvation he made available to men free of charge and with his own blood. “Listen!” says Jesus. “I am coming soon! I will bring my rewards with me, to give to each one according to what he has done. I am the first and the last, the beginning and the end.”” Revelation 22’12-13..

Many people in the world doesn’t believe in Jesus in the first place, so they think that everything about him including his return to the earth doesn’t concern them. Some people are bold enough to mock and doubt it. The worst being many people in church today, who hardly consider his impending second coming and the need to prepare for it by all and sundry. His coming won’t be in the a secret but an open event for all to witness. The event of his second coming will mark the end the grace we presently enjoy. As the window of grace shuts down, men shall face an uncompromising God in his judgment and for reward as the case may be. For the scripture says: “As surely as I am the living God, says the Lord, everyone will kneel before me, and everyone will confess that I am God.” Every one of us, then, will have to give an account of ourselves to God.” Romans 14:11-13..

Knowing that this present world is not a lasting home for us and that we are pilgrims on a journey to eternity, there’s need to wake up to prepare to meet our God. Fact is that when men die, their own Christ has come. Such individuals has no more window to seek God not think of serving him. He is delaying his second coming because it is not his desire that any man he created should perish or be cast in hell, which is reserved for Satan and all the fallen angels that rebelled with him against their maker, including humans who chose the devil ahead of Jesus Christ as their master. “For God did not send his Son into the world to be its judge, but to be its saviour. Those who believe in the Son are not judged; but those who do not believe have already been judged, because they have not believed in God’s only Son.This is how the judgement works: the light has come into the world, but people love the darkness rather than the light, because their deeds are evil.” John 3:17-19.

Prayer :Thank you Father God because it is not your will that anyone you created should perish, but that all should come to the knowledge of repentance. Jesus I choose to live for you all my days and spend eternity with you. Uphold me with your mighty hand and help me to be ready for your second coming in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.

Yearly Bible Reading : Acts 5:17-42.
