It wrecked me actually.
You may not be able to tell, but this is from a display of Noah and the Ark.
The boat was in place.
Noah and his family were inside.
The waters were rising.
And there were people on the highest points, crying out for entry.
And that's really what it must have been like.
Can you imagine?
Can you imagine watching a life boat float away and realizing you had completely missed it.
Can you imagine standing on a high mountaintop, holding your babies while water continued to come towards you.
Can you just imagine?
One of my students asked me, "why didn't Noah just open the door and let them in?"
And I had to give her this sobering answer:
The word of God says that the Lord sealed them in.
God said enough is enough and time is up.
And He literally SEALED the door.
No getting out, no coming in.
People mocked Noah for building the ark.
They continued on with their lives, not realizing how close eternity was for them.
They were eating, drinking, and marrying.
They were birthing children.
They were living their lives, and they didn't realize how serious it was.
They didn't realize there was salvation if they would only listen and believe.
And that's where we're at today friends.
Time is running out and the Lord is about to seal some doors.
But you don't have to perish- just call upon His name.
If you are in bondage, He can break it.
If you are in sin, He can cleanse you.
If you have a bad past, join the club.
God is no respecter of persons.
But you must repent.
Oh, if you don't know Him you are in serious trouble!
Call out to Him tonight and surrender your life to Him.
He will take you as you are, but you must surrender.
We never know when our last breath will happen, and what a terrifying thing to enter into eternity without the blood of Jesus as your covering.
This is serious.
Time is short.
Today is the day of salvation.
And PS. He really, really, REALLY loves you and wants you with Him.
It's not too late to cry out and let Him cover you

I was so delighted when I discovered Marc the Messenger introduced a lady's voice under the heading of "God's Chosen Ones Never Go to Church." I immediately contacted my publisher and one revered mentor. I took the time to write word for word what I heard. I emailed a copy to two mentors. They were impressed. The first asked if I wrote it. The second said I agree (with the article) 100%! My search for the author was relentless. I believe you are the author and perhaps the voice.
ReplyDeleteToday I was pleasantly surprised to see my late friend and brother in Jesus, Edward Fudge's picture on your blog! Edward and I were long-time friends. Both my mentors listed above knew and respected him. I was in school with Edward. He was about 3-4 years ahead of me at Athens Bible School in Athens, AL. I feel greatly blessed to finally find you. Another instance of "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear"! God bless you richly, Ron
