Number Our Days!



"And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment..." 
Hebrews 9:27


"There is no man that hath power over the spirit to retain the spirit; neither hath he power in the day of death: and there is no discharge in that war; neither shall wickedness deliver those that are given to it. All this have I seen, and applied my heart unto every work that is done under the sun...  Because sentence against an evil work is not executed speedily, therefore the heart of the sons of men is fully set in them to do evil.  Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him: But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not before God."
Ecclesiastes 8:8-9,11-13


     When it is our time to die, none of us have the power to prevent death. Those that have lived their lives in sin, and have not turned to Jesus, will not be spared or pardoned,  just because their natural lives in the flesh has come to an end. Whoever dies in their sins, will face the judgement of God. It will then be to late to repent and turn to Jesus for salvation. This is something we need to consider now, while we are able to make the decision! "For He saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured (helped) thee: behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation."  2 Corinthians 6:2.

     We see many people live very ungodly lives, and many times they are the ones most prosperous and successful, but be assured, they will not escape the wrath and judgement of God when their time comes to an end! Remember our time here on earth, even if we live to be an old age, is as nothing compared to spending all of eternity in either Heaven or Hell! 

    
"LORD, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered--how fleeting my life is." 
Psalm 39:4 (NLT)


"So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom."  
Psalm 90:12.

"Watch out! Don't let your hearts be dulled by carousing and drunkenness, and by the worries of this life. Don't let that day catch you unaware"
Luke 21:34 (NLT)

     If you have not received the Lord Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Saviour, please consider these words. He is reaching out to you right now with open arms, He loves you more than words can describe, He loves you so much He willingly suffered and died to pay the penalty for your sins! 

"For whosoever shall call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved."
Romans 10:13
