People Get Ready

Matthew 24:37 " But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be."

As we come nearer to resurrection Sunday I am reminded that Jesus is coming back again. He Is not coming back to seek and save the lost, no this time He is coming for His church, a church without spot or blemish. He is coming for the prepared people to take to the  place He went to prepare for them, and people we better be ready.

The word of God says, all who say Lord, Lord will not enter into the kingdom of heaven, but only those who do the will of the Father, yet the true laborers are few. There is a popular message going around that is full of the promise of earthly riches and positions of power that has people looking for what they can get from God, and then there is a much needed message which is not so popular, it is the message of repentance, and what we can do for God. Many live their lives based on God's love for us, and don't get me wrong God do love us, but He also cannot lie. When He says the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of heaven He means it. Let us begin to live a life that shows the world our love for God by living a life that is pleasing to Him and will lead lost souls to accept His free gift of salvation.

Here in our text Jesus Is telling the people how in the days of Noah, His message was unpopular, they laughed at him and continued doing their own thing. See they had never seen rain before, so Noah message seemed like nonsense to them. Todays unpopular message seems like nonsense to the masses, but when the rains came and the door was closed it was too late to accept the message from God. People get ready, when Jesus comes back, it will be too late to accept the message from God. Salvation is real and eternity is a long time, don't reject God's word because it seems unpopular, remember narrow is the way to righteousness, so don't be so quick to follow the crowd, they could be traveling down the broad road.
