THE NIGHT IS ALMOST OVER-PART 3
You are welcome to the hour of the trumpeter. It's indeed wonderful being in the presence of The Lord. I know that God is good to you and your dear ones, and hope that He is blessing you adequately through these messages of the end time.
We sincerely thank God for many people who are calling from different parts of the country, telling us how God has been blessing them through these messages, and many others who have surrendered their lives to God or renewed their lives as a result of the challenges coming from the revelation of Gods word. Indeed, we appreciate you and also encourage you to keep till the end. It is good to begin now,but the best to finish well.
That's what the word of God says in Ecclesiastes chapter 7 verse 8.
“Better is the end of a thing than the beginning thereof; and the patient in spirit is better than the proud in spirit”
May God Almighty help us to end well. Please, Be focused and always refresh yourself in the presence of The Lord.
So, in today's episode of the trumpeter, we will continue from where we stopped last week,as I promised and to conclude the series today. Remember the topic again, which is THE NIGHT IS ALMOST OVER. So this is part 3 of it.
As we commence in full, please bow down your heads and let’s pray,
In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen
Father, we thank you so much, for unto us, you have made to receive the mysteries of the kingdom. Touch our lives by the reason of your word. As a potter, re-mold our lives by the encounter of your word. Help us to be ready for your second coming. May our garment be white as snow and our head lack no oil. Thanks for this privilege and grace. We pray through Jesus Christ, our Lord. Amen.
The topic again is -THE NIGHT IS ALMOST OVER-PART 3.
For this concluding series, the portion of the Bible still remains the Epistle of Paul to the Romans chapter 13 verses 11 to 14
Romans 13 verses 11 to 14
“And this, knowing the season, that already it is time for you to awake out of sleep: for now is salvation nearer to us than when we first believed. The night is far spent, and the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armor of light. Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and jealousy. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof”
You should remember, we mentioned the reasons for this clarion call from the Apostle of our Lord Jesus Christ, the man, Paul-to the church of God. The urgency of the task is for the believers and unsaved in the society, telling us the exact time we are now. You can call it- a borrowed time. So we continue to emphasize that,we are at the time and season of the Lords appearing.
Again, It’s time to wake- up. I think I said similar thing when I preached about the Dream ship called Titanic built by the White Star Company.The passengers received many warnings but despised them. Why? Because they put their trust in a man, Captain Smith, the controller or the highest paid Captain of the company. You should know that they boasted, " Not even God can sink Titanic, but God laughed at them,as over thousand souls met their maker unprepared on the night of April 15th, 1912, precisely at 2.20am in the morning.
So, the same warning is coming to you, my listener -to be conscious of the fact, that - It’s nearly dawn. The night is almost over. So, be prepared for anything can happen now.
I told us certain activities which do take place in the night in the previous editions and the signs to watch for as we wait for the soon manifestation of the king of Kings, and Lord of Lords to take over the government of this world. I did mentioned the reasons which are,
1. Increased apostasy in the Church today.
2. Monumental increase in natural elements such as earthquakes, severe extreme weather patterns, floods, droughts, climatic changes, pestilences and flood worldwide.
3. The gathering of the prophesied fig tree and the worldwide hatred of Israel nation
4. The crisis in Middle East and global awakenings, resulting in wars and conflicts, which the word of God said, that " nations shall be against nations and kingdom against kingdoms". All these things are here before us today
5. Filth and corruption increase in our society today.
This is where we stopped last time, and so we are rounding up this series as we conclude with other reasons to show that the night is far spent and the word of God, from the passage we read is saying, my friend, please wake up for your salvation is nearer than you expect but if you are still a sinner, slumbering, it’s high time you wake up or face the full wrath of the Lord.
So, It’s time to wake up. The night is almost over! Rise, to do something now for time is coming when no man should work or repent again.
Whatsoever you do from now, do it in righteousness of the Lord to avoid, ‘Had I known’ at last.
Other reasons which spell the hour we are living are here with us. So,
6. The increase of Satanic activities.
There is increase of satanic agenda today.
Friend,Don't know you that our world is saying and waving" good-bye" to our God who made and created all things. Today, in some of the Western world who came to us with the gospel of the kingdom, the prayer in the classroom and government functions have been removed while some of the world comedians now ridicule the name of our Master and Savior Jesus Christ, and his followers which no one has the audacity to do with any other religion- even in our country.
Today, people pay heavily, just to laugh and make caricature of the holy things. Are you not seeing it now? People call upon the name of God in vain or jest with the sacred Holy Ghost and His fire in the name of entertainment. What can God do?
Don't worry, in one of the trumpeter series, we may once preach on the message “The end of all parties" about Belshazzar in Daniel chapter 5 and for you to see and know how God will end all caricature against His name. Really, a hand is still at the wall, writing and saying this time "Do not take the name of the Lord in vain" So, if you are on this way,Be warned before the judgement of God falls on you. So,you see today that the Christians and their beliefs are openly ridiculed and made fun of,on our televisions and movies by our wonderful self-proclaimed role models. In this country, you have the freedom to stomp on the name of Jesus without fear of retribution but over there, in the Middle East, say one negative thing about Allah or Mohammad, his prophet and you face your death warrant immediately.
What is happening? Is satan rejoicing today because of your activity? How are you living your life? Are you mocking your maker and his children. Remember, the case of Belshazzar, for he died the same night after the interpretation of Gods writing on the wall by his servant, Daniel
Satanic activities are on the increase today. Are you part of it?
We can feel it everywhere. In the school, society and nation- even the church.
Some nations today have permitted the murder of children through abortion and call it " planned Parenthood" If I may ask, young lady, "why going for it when you know you can't keep the result” God told Cain, “the blood of your brother,Abel whom you killed is crying for vengeance against you from the ground”
Genesis chapter 4:10
“And he said, What hast thou done? the voice of thy brother's blood crieth unto me from the ground”
Blood speaks. Anytime one sheds blood, either by killing, ritual or evacuation- the blood speaks.
Friend, Are you hearing me? Don't allow the devil to deceive you by telling you it doesn't matter. It matters.
Have you seen it? You may receive the repercussion of some of your actions now that you are alive- just like the vagabond, Cain.Why can't you say "No"to the devil and be free forever. All these actions in the world today are some of the ways to introduce the New World Order.
One architect of the New World Order said, “to achieve world government, it is necessary to remove from the minds of people their individualism, loyalty to family tradition, national patriotism and religious dogmas”
Have you seen it?
The world government already gathering now wants you to be brainwashed and to take everything that will make you Godly and so think about evil all the time.
As you are hearing my voice now, I don't know where you are, and what you are thinking? May be how to commit evil or immorality- If true, please desist from it and escape for your life now. There is no gain in the path of unrighteousness.
What am I saying?
The night is almost over.
Another reason to show you how night is getting over us, is
7.The satanic focus on children and youths.
The battle is shifting fastly against our kids and youths.
I think I said in the last edition, if you know your God, this is the accurate time to pray for our youth- I mean your child.
Beloved, Don't you know we are losing this generation? Or are you not thinking how this earth will look in the next ten years- if Jesus tarries. I think, it was at this point that Christ asked an interesting question, " When Son of man shall come, will He find faith on the earth?
Now, you hear children talking about the comic book superheroes which they know but can't recite a simple verse in the word of God. They talk about Iron man, Superman, Spider-Man and spend their time playing their interactive war games on their iPads and iPhones, or feed their addiction to Facebook and Twitters instead of learning about their Maker. It's indeed tragic!
A young girl of sixteen committed suicide few days ago because another girl told her in the Facebook- “Look at you, just look at yourself. Don't you know you are too ugly. Nobody likes you and no one may cherish you. Go and die" She taught it for many days and couldn't hold it longer and so took her life.
This is where the world is going now. Someone can write anything and post in the social contact without considering what the reader may get out of it.
No wonder the results and consequences are alarming today.
My Brother,sister, wake up! Your night is far spent. Enough of these things which do not glorify God.
By now, you should know that worldwide, the suicide rate is up because it is perceived that there is no more hope in the world. Economies are falling, people are living paycheck to paycheck, in constant fear that the bubble will burst and their entitlements from the governments will run out.
What about the sudden maltreatment of the Christians worldwide?
Christians today, are being persecuted more than ever before, beginning from our environment to the outside world. The cases are rampant now in Africa and some parts of the Middle East. Why? The reason is because Christ is appearing to many people from the other religion by himself, and so many of the converts are at considerable risk to their very lives. Few months ago, a pastor refused to renounce his belief in Jesus Christ and the children of the bond woman decided to slit his throat. Every day we are hearing more and more reports of believers being slaughtered in some parts of our country because of their faith in Christ.
Anyway, Jesus Christ said in Matthew chapter 5 verses 10-12
“Blessed are they that have been persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Blessed are ye when men shall reproach you, and persecute you, and say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake. Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets that were before you”
Oh!, this is the victory of the believers.
Are you hearing me now? The night is almost over when you hear of some countries in Europe voting and passing a bill that children with health issues such as terminal diseases should now choose euthanasia instead of living- that is slow death by choice. So for some sicknesses, people are living at the mercy of the doctors or caregivers who should decide if they should live or die. Life is no more a precious commodity. What a world!
At least as I round up this message, you should now be conscious that the ‘Big Brother’ is here with. What I mean is the monitoring cameras,survellience machines and gadgets everywhere.The world is now wired and so don't be deceived to think that your life transactions and comments are secret anymore. My dear, they are not. Your e-mails, chatting and negative comments at facebooks, text messages, phone calls and Internet searches or histories are being documented. They will be an exhibit against you during the reign of the world government which are to be formed any moment from now.
What are you to do now?
Wake up and put on the armor of light. Stand firm and on the truth always for your life and eternal destiny after here. Remember until Jesus comes back and sin is removed permanently from this earth, you will never fix anything. I mean, never.
The solution is what Paul said in our main passage of this message, the book of Romans chapter 13 verses 13-14
“Let us walk becomingly, as in the day; not in revelling and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and jealousy. But put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ, and make not provision for the flesh, to fulfil the lusts thereof”
This means firstly, you should monitor your walk, that is- walking honestly now, anywhere you find yourself and separate ourselves from worldly entanglements. Secondly, you should put on in totality, the personality of Jesus Christ and then say ‘no’ to every lusts of the flesh. The Bible says,Make no provision for the flesh.
How?
By casting down every Satanic imagination which wars against the spirit. Live as a stranger and pilgrim here as you hope for eternity to come. You can do something now.You don't have to be a Reinhard Bonnke or Billy Graham, to do your part in spreading the gospel. You can contribute in the spreading of the truth, for time is running too fast.Be kind to people and through your kindness they will know what king you serve. As a Christian, place all your cares and concern to Jesus. He has very big shoulders. He promised to care for you and to be with you even to the end of the age. You should not waste time in telling people about your God because the world is fast becoming a scary place and people want to know what to do. The Holy Spirit may use you to link to a person’s heart. Who knows, you may be the catalyst that causes the final person to become saved to usher in the Rapture.
To a sinner, hearing my voice now, don't you know, your life is in danger? You are not safe unless you are saved. But, there is still hope for you as you have not gone home finally. You can change or amend your ways. Give your life to Jesus Christ and be free forever. Your first miracle is your salvation not breakthrough or prophecies of open door.
Are you ready now to call Jesus into your life and to surrender to him totally?
If you want to do that now, then follow after me in this simple but mighty prayer and believe it with all your heart.
"Lord Jesus, I come to you today by faith. I'm a sinner and I can't save myself. I have heard your word and discovered that I need your mercy and forgiveness. Come into my life and be my Lord and personal savior.Forgive me all my sins. I reject self and the world and hereby promise to worship you sincerely. Thank you Lord for saving me today. Amen
I now pray for you
Lord, I pray for my listener who had prayed this prayer now. Please accept him into your kingdom. Forgive all iniquities and transgressions and give him or her a new life to live for you. Thank You Lord for we pray in Jesus Name. Amen
My friend, thank you for the new life you have received in Christ Jesus today. Congratulation, and begin to study the Word of God on daily basis and ask the Holy Spirit to help you with His understanding always. You may begin with the gospel of John and fellowship with other believers in Christ for your growth.
