TOPIC: OLD DOCTRINE THAT RULES IN HEAVEN (II)
Read Isaiah 40:1-8
1. Comfort ye, comfort ye my people, saith your God.
2. Speak ye comfortably to Jerusalem, and cry unto her, that her warfare is accomplished, that her iniquity is pardoned: for she hath received of the Lord's hand double for all her sins.
3. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.
4. Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain:
5. And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.
6. The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field:
7. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the spirit of the Lord bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.
8. The grass withereth, the flower fadeth: but the word of our God shall stand for ever.
MEMORISE: The grass withers, the flower fades, but the word of our God abides forever (Isaiah 40:8)
EXPOSITION
God wishes that we come back to Him at the end of our race, on earth. He has prepared heaven for us. Read John 14:1-3 and Revelation 22:1-5. Here we see the Beautiful Heaven prepared for the saints. Why should you call yourself a Christian and live like ungodly people (2 Cor. 6:14ff)? True Christians i.e. those who have truly met the Lord Jesus, and are being changed by Him (2 Cor. 5:17) have the seed of God in them. This seed of God in you is the seed of God's holiness, for God is holy (Lev. 14:11; 1 Pet. 1:13-25).
The world is tired of this ancient godly pattern of living, and has fashioned out new ways of destruction for itself. You should run away from this (1 Jn. 2:15ff).
Holiness amd godliness are the ancient path God has ordained for us and they last forever. The world is like grass that will soon wither away. The world is like flower that its glory is fading away. Right now, the glory of the world is fading away and getting ready to be burned with everlasting fire. Why should you be among those who would be sent to hell fire, just because of lies, deceits, hypocrisy, unforgiving spirit, evil-mindedness, etc.? You need to come to Jesus Christ today, and give your life to Him.
Do not listen to Satan's ministration that, if God will destroy this world because of the sins of fornication, adultery, pre-marital sex, corruption, nudity, etc., it means that everybody will have to go to hell fire. This is neither biblically nor doctrinally correct. There are countless people of God who have chosen, and are glued to God's holy path. Join them today. That is the only key to making heaven (Heb. 12:14).
PRAYER POINTS
1. Father, I refuse to perish with people of the world, in the name of Jesus Christ.
2. Father, I join Your people who believe Your Word and live according to it. Let me never quit this band of glorious heaven-bound Christians.
3. Father, please deliver our children from the perilous times that make people compromise the standard of Your Word.
EXTRA READING FOR TODAY: Exodus 9; Matthew 28 & Mark 1
