WE ARE LIVING AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH!
Luke 17:26-27 - And as it was in the days of Noah, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noah entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
SO WHY DOES THE LORD WITHHOLD JUDGMENT?
Isaiah 46:10 - Be still, and know that I AM God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.
Luke 21:24 - And they (My people) shall fall by the edge of the sword, and shall be led away captive into all nations: and Jerusalem shall be trodden down of the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles be fulfilled.
Romans 9:22-24 - What if God, willing to show His wrath, and to make His power known, endured with much long-suffering the vessels of wrath fitted to destruction: and that He might make known the riches of His glory on the vessels of mercy, which He had afore prepared unto glory, even us, whom He has called, not of the Jews only, but also of the Gentiles?
Romans 11:25 - For I would not, brethren, that you should be ignorant of this mystery, lest you should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fullness of the Gentiles be come in.
1 Peter 3:20 - Which sometime were disobedient, when once the long-suffering of God waited in the days of Noah, while the ark was a preparing, wherein few, that is, eight souls were saved by water.
THE TIME OF WAITING IS COMING TO AN END!
2 Peter 3:3-10 - Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, and saying, Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the Word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: but the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same Word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some men count slackness; but is long-suffering toward us, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. But the Day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night; in which the heavens shall pass away with a great noise, and the elements shall melt with fervent heat, the earth also and the works that are therein shall be burned up.
TODAY
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON WHAT HAPPENED SEVENTEEN YEARS AGO!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON THE THREAT OF HURRICANES!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON INJUSTICE!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON GENOCIDE!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON CHILD ABUSE!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON THE STARVING!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON THE HOMELESS!
MANY ARE FOCUSED UPON THEIR OWN HEALTH ISSUES!
ALL THESE ARE WORTHY OF YOUR TIME AND CONCERN!
HOWEVER, ALL OF THESE SITUATIONS ARE TEMPORARY!
MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHAT IS YOUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS CHRIST?
IS HE YOUR LORD?
IS HE CALLING ON YOU TO SERVE HIM?
IF SO, IS HE GETTING THE GLORY FROM YOUR SERVICE?
TIME IS SHORT!
JESUS IS COMING FOR BELIEVERS!
WILL HE FIND YOU FAITHFUL WHEN YOU STAND BEFORE HIM?
THINK ABOUT IT!!!!!!!
