I’ve called to you over and over; still you refuse to come to me. I’ve pleaded with you again and again, yet you’ve turned a deaf ear to my voice. Because you have laughed at my counsel and have insisted on continuing in your stubbornness, I will laugh when your calamity comes and will turn away from you at the time of your disaster. Make a joke of my advice, will you? Then I’ll make a joke out of you! When the storm clouds of terror gather over your head, when dread and distress consume you and your catastrophe comes like a hurricane, you will cry out to me, but I won’t answer. Then it will be too late to expect my help. When desperation drives you to search for me, I will be nowhere to be found. Proverbs 1:24-28
With all that’s happening in our world, it’s hard to not pay attention to these words. Seems that the Lord is trying to wake up people so that they will listen and come back to him.
I hear so many people stating that Jesus is coming soon because of what we see around us. But let’s not focus too much on Him returning, but on how much we have to do before he does.
Pray for the lost. Pray for those who are deceived. Stop being focused on getting out of here and focus on the lost. Get off your easy chair watching the news and go out and find people who need hope. They’re out there. You just need to look for them.
It’s not about preaching from a street corner. It’s about showing Gods love and encouragement to those who have no hope.
