"Sounding the Alarm!"


“Sounding the Alarm!”

 

And do this, understanding the present time:  The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.   The night is nearly over; the day is almost here.  So let us put aside the deeds of darkness and put on the armor of light.          Romans 13:11-12

 

I believe that this is a message that God truly wanted delivered.  A message that would ‘SOUND the ALARM.   Time is fleeting, and MANY are perishing.  It’s time for God’s children to AWAKE from their SLUMBER and get busy spreading the GOOD NEWS:  JESUS SAVES!!  We need to SOUND the ALARM:  HE IS COMING SOON, BE READY TO MEET HIM!!

 

The Bible tells us that NO ONE knows the day or hour when He will return, but it gives us signs to look for and the Apostle Paul felt in his heart that it was NEARER than ever, in his day.  So how much CLOSER are we in this present time, in which we live?  All you need to do is look around you.  Sin is running rampant, lawlessness abounds everywhere, wars and rumors of wars are popping up all around us.  Our own nation is in DESPERATE NEED of HELP.  And as God’s children we need to not find ourselves participating in the deeds of darkness, but to put on the armor of light and to let our light shine in a DARK, CORRUPT, SIN-LADEN world. 

 

Paul’s warning to the believers in Rome, is more applicable to us TODAY.  The time has come for the TRUE BELIEVERS to WAKE UP!  And to get moving, we must be about God’s business of, sharing His LOVE with a LOST and DYING world.   The finality of our salvation is nearer NOW than it has ever been.  The NIGHT, THIS present time, is nearly over; the DAY, Christ’s return, is almost here.   Are we ready?   Are we DILIGENTLY seeking the lost and sharing God’s love?  Have we done all we can do, to let our light shine in the darkness?   These are some crucial questions for the TRUE BELIEVERS to ponder.

 

But NOW, let me ask YOU, are you READY for Christ’s return?  Have you given you HEART and LIFE to God and asked Him for His FORGIVENESS?  If not you will be one of the ones that will be LEFT BEHIND, and have to deal with ALL the calamities that will ensue during the tribulation time, AFTER Christ has come and taken His TRUE BELIEVERS from this doomed world.  You NOW have the opportunity to Give your HEART and LIFE to God by:  CONFESSING your sins to Him, and asking Him for His FORGIVENESS, BELIEVING, with ALL your HEART, that Jesus died for YOU, and is ALIVE in Heaven, making intercession for you, before God, then ACCEPT His gift of SALVATION, and be one of His TRUE BELIEVERS, who is READY for His return.  Do it NOW, while you still can.  He’s waiting and coming SOON!  GO AND SOUND THE ALARM!!!
