SEEK THE LORD!

ISAIAH 55:6

"Seek the Lord while you can find Him. Call on Him now while He is near!"

You are in a foxhole and the bombs are bursting all around you, and just before you call out the Lord's name to save you the bomb explodes and kills you instantly. You are in a car and you do not see the other car swerving into your lane as it hits you head on, there is no time to call out to the Lord for help. You are on a plane that crashes on take off or landing and there is no warning that disaster is imminent. You find yourself in one of a thousand situations that are beyond your control and that lead to an almost instant death, what are the consequences?

If you have all ready sought out the Lord and opened the door of your heart to Him then you are Saved by grace and death has no victory. If you have rejected the Lord throughout your life and even said I will wait until the right moment to accept Him, its too late now. You made a choice and that will lead to a just response from the Lord. When you call out to Him after death and seek His salvation, it will be too late. Jesus will tell you to depart from Him and that He never knew you. Now you realize that your inaction has consequences, now you want a Saviour!

The one truth today is that now is the accepted time for salvation. Today is the day of your Salvation if you call out to the Lord. You can find Him right now if you will only seek Him and ask Him into your heart. If you call on Him right now, He will hear you and He is right there near to you. You are responsible for you choices and you can choose to call out or not. You are subject to the consequences of your actions and inaction's. If you reject the Lord, He will reject you. SEEK THE LORD WHILE YOU CAN FIND HIM. CALL UPON HIM NOW WHILE HE IS NEAR!
