Judgement day is coming. Prepare yourself, before it is too late. Death could take you tomorrow or even tonight, while you sleep. Come to understand the person that will be judging you and know what He is looking for. It would be terrible to face our ultimate judge and not even know Him or His will for mankind. 1There would surely be weeping and much guilt, when we are unknown in His presence and are sent to hell for eternity. So let’s get right down to it. Jesus is the judge. And 5“we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.” We will all give an account to the Lord Jesus in judgement. Everything good and bad will be on full display. Are you ready? You can answer yes to this question, if you have accepted Jesus into your life and have 2been born again. If this is the case, and you have become 5“a new creature”, where 5“old things are passed away,” then your sins are forgiven and you have nothing to fear. It is those people that do not believe in Jesus, or say they believe with no action, that will be terrified in judgement. Please know that the Lord Jesus has already paid the price for our sins, so that nobody has to go to hell. While in the flesh, Jesus made himself 5“to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.” This all took place on the cross, where He suffered, bled and died for our sins.
There is power in the name of Jesus. Trust in Him and He will give you strength. We can do all things in Christ Jesus. Anything that is holding us back now from accepting Him fully into our hearts, can be rid of today. What we cannot remove from our lives, the Lord can. 4There are specific sins that will keep us out of heaven, but we can be set free today. God’s power is stronger than any temptation we face. And know one thing, those in Christ Jesus were once given over to the flesh, but we are changed. We have been sanctified by the blood of Jesus and now our desires and appetites are different. 3We no longer serve sin but the Lord God. Because our desires are different, there is no more shame but joy in the Lord. We are hopeful for what happens next. 5“For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.” Death will not stop our passion and fire for the Lord and His kingdom. This desire to serve the Lord will continue on for eternity. I pray that this is your desire also. And if you are not there yet and have not made up your mind, when it comes to God, then think it through now and decide. Please know that 5“to be absent from the body,” is 5“to be present with the Lord.” The good and bad will face Christ the Lord on the day we die. The good are those that die with Christ as their Savior and the bad are those that choose not to trust in Jesus.
Let us pray:
Oh Lord, I pray that people awake to their sins and receive You into their lives, before death takes them. So much time is ticking away in people’s lives and they don’t realize it. Most people don’t even know that tomorrow is their day of reckoning with You in judgement. And the sad thing is, they have not been forgiven, nor been born again. There life is on the rocks and nothing will save them but Your blood alone. You have been waiting for them to call upon Your Name for mercy but instead, they have delayed Your call. Where so many people could be accepted into Your presence and experience heaven, instead they have chosen a different path to hell. My heart is grieved by this choice that people are making. Please wake them up to the sins they are committing, that they may repent today and have every chain be broken. I know that You have the power to save any person from their sins. Even those people that have shown no fruits in their belief in You, You are able to revive them to do Your will. I pray for a change of heart in more people before judgement day. May they experience Your great love and endure in their faith till the end. It is so wise, and I pray that more people make this decision today. I know You can do all things for those that put their trust in You, Jesus. I love You. Amen.

1Matthew 7:21-27 (KJV)
21 Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
22 Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
23 And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.
24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock:
25 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was founded upon a rock.
26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not, shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand:
27 And the rain descended, and the floods came, and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the fall of it.
2John 3:1-7 (KJV)
1 There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:
2 The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.
3 Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.
4 Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?
5 Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.
6 That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.
7 Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.
3Romans 6:1-11 (KJV)
1 What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?
2 God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?
3 Know ye not, that so many of us as were baptized into Jesus Christ were baptized into his death?
4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.
5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection:
6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.
7 For he that is dead is freed from sin.
8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:
9 Knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no more; death hath no more dominion over him.
10 For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he liveth, he liveth unto God.
11 Likewise reckon ye also yourselves to be dead indeed unto sin, but alive unto God through Jesus Christ our Lord.
41 Corinthians 6:9-11 (KJV)
9 Know ye not that the unrighteous shall not inherit the kingdom of God? Be not deceived: neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor effeminate, nor abusers of themselves with mankind,
10 Nor thieves, nor covetous, nor drunkards, nor revilers, nor extortioners, shall inherit the kingdom of God.
11 And such were some of you: but ye are washed, but ye are sanctified, but ye are justified in the name of the Lord Jesus, and by the Spirit of our God.
52 Corinthians 5 (KJV)
1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.
2 For in this we groan, earnestly desiring to be clothed upon with our house which is from heaven:
3 If so be that being clothed we shall not be found naked.
4 For we that are in this tabernacle do groan, being burdened: not for that we would be unclothed, but clothed upon, that mortality might be swallowed up of life.
5 Now he that hath wrought us for the selfsame thing is God, who also hath given unto us the earnest of the Spirit.
6 Therefore we are always confident, knowing that, whilst we are at home in the body, we are absent from the Lord:
7 (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)
8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord.
9 Wherefore we labour, that, whether present or absent, we may be accepted of him.
10 For we must all appear before the judgment seat of Christ; that every one may receive the things done in his body, according to that he hath done, whether it be good or bad.
11 Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences.
12 For we commend not ourselves again unto you, but give you occasion to glory on our behalf, that ye may have somewhat to answer them which glory in appearance, and not in heart.
13 For whether we be beside ourselves, it is to God: or whether we be sober, it is for your cause.
14 For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead:
15 And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again.
16 Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more.
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
19 To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
