Heaven 15 October 2022 TOPIC: The Urgency For Salvation
MEMORISE: But exhort one another
daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the
deceitfulness of sin. Hebrews 3:13
READ: Romans 13:11-13 (KJV)
11. And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of
sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed.
12. The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off
the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
13. Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: MATTHEW 21:1-46, MATTHEW
22:1-46
Open Heaven 15 October 2022 MESSAGE:
My beloved, if man makes a threat, circumstances can go against him so that
he would not be able to carry it out. However, when God warns of impending doom
and provides a way of escape, we had better pay attention to it because He is
more than able to bring it to pass.

Many people have scoffed at the warning of the impending eternal damnation
that awaits sinners by ignoring the message of salvation. Such people are
thinking that just because the return of Christ is yet to come, the message
doesn’t matter. If man says a thing, it may not come to pass; however, when God
speaks, thousands of years may pass by, but that word will still be fulfilled.
“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man
be. For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and
drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into
the ark, And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall
also the coming of the Son of man be.” “Matthew 24:37-39”
God threatened to wipe out the whole world with a flood and then instructed
Noah to build an ark to save himself, his family and two of every other sort of
living thing. For over a century, the flood did not happen, but Noah ensured he
constructed the ark. When the flood eventually started, those who despised the
word of God were doomed.
There were many prophecies about Jesus Christ in the Old Testament but the
fulfilment of His birth came thousands of years after. No matter how long it
may seem to take, the word of God will surely come to pass. Those who scoff at
the word of God now will eventually have themselves to blame.
You may have been delaying your salvation to a later date, 2 Corinthians
6:2 says: “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.”
What makes you think that you will have another opportunity to repent
before you are called home? This moment is the only one you are sure of; use it
to get yourself right with God before it is too late.
