DON’T SEEK TO GO TO HEAVEN ALONE

God bless you for taking the time to study.

TOPIC: DON’T SEEK TO GO TO HEAVEN ALONE.  

TEXT: LUKE 13:22-24 

THURSDAY OCTOBER 13TH

Key verse: Proverbs 11:30. The fruit of the righteous is a tree of life; and he that winneth souls are wise. 
In our text today, Jesus admonishes us to strive when it comes to the issue of heaven but come to think of it; are we going to heaven alone? Did Jesus die for us alone? Why shouldn’t we be concerned indeed? Why is the entire world perishing around us? When are we going to awake to the reality that our relations are not going to heaven because their names are not in the book of life? We are just seeing them on earth. 
When are you going to become conscious of the fact that your colleagues in your workplace are just there in the shadows of today and that in a little while eternity shall envelop them in the torments of hellfire? When are you going to awake to the reality that all these people you meet in the market are like doomed people waiting to be pushed into the abyss? Arise in compassion, in passion for the souls of men, and get them saved in Christ. Come on! Are you going to heaven alone? Then why are you not waking up to make sure you cry and cry to God for the perishing souls of men, women youths, and children?
Jude 22-23 22 And of some have compassion, making a difference: 23 And others save with fear, pulling them out of the fire; hating even the garment spotted by the flesh.
God wants us to awake to real passion as Paul: “For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me if I preach not the gospel!” 1 Corinthians 9:16. As a child of God, do you know that woe is unto you if you preach not the gospel? Let me tell you, Mordecai told Esther (paraphrased) “Esther, what do you mean? We are perishing here and you are sitting at ease in the King's palace thinking that you’re a queen and that the king cannot permit you to be killed? Are you thinking that you are going to be saved; that if we all die you will remain? God forbid! Esther 4:13-14

Thought for the day: Work hard to carry others along with you to heaven.

Song for the day: Must I go empty-handed … 

Bible reading for the day: 
Isaiah 50-52; 1Thessalonians 1 #Horemow.

THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS

REMAIN BLESSED AS YOU TAKE YOUR TIME TO STUDY THE WORD OF GOD. THURSDAY 30 DECEMBER THE LORD IS REMOVING UNCIRCUMCISED LEADERS TEXT: NUMBERS 14: 26-31  Key verse: Matthew 20:16 So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many  be called, but few chosen. Completion of the angelic message: The Lord continued. “Because of this mandate given to you, I am removing around you the uncircumcised leaders. I am going to fill their place with righteous and holy leaders from various nations and races.” Truly I had pondered if any minister has suffered like this. People I loved, cherished and lived peacefully with suddenly began to speak evil against me to my shock. Well, it happens in politics, but is limited to their countries, whereas mine is international! Yes, some ministers may have suffered these things, but that was before the advent of the Internet, so their sufferings were limited. Maybe through letters or newspapers for a limited time, but my own is in the world of the I...
