A stupendously rich man died some time ago. While they were burying the remains at the graveyard; a mad man shouted; "Heeh, HOLD ON, DON'T BURY HIM ALONE; PUT ALL HIS CARS AND HOUSES IN THE GRAVE AND BURY THEM WITH HIM" Everyone was shocked at the mad man's statement but God used him to preach a message. If that rich man had died with any iota of sin while on earth,
his soul will be damned in Hell.
From the world statistics records on mortality rate; in every hour, more than 6,400 people dies. In every 24 hours, More than 153,000 people dies while more than 300,000 babies are been produce to replace the death in every 24 hours.
My beloved; no matter how rich, poor, shameless, honored, tall, short, married, barren, un-marry, sad, overjoyed, educated, illiterate, dark or light in complexion; WE ARE ALL INDEBTED TO DEATH. Life is too small to feel big or better than anybody. We are all naked to death. Nothing in life is worth fighting for. Your best clothes are someone's rag. Your bank account balance is someone church offering.
Every single prostitute you see in a hotel or on the street at night was at some point in time a virgin. rich, poor, young and old are all indebted to death. BUT WHERE SHALL WE SPEND OUR ETERNITY? Nothing can save us from death. Death is just a passage toward eternity. I hate to see people who brag about their wealth, beauty, intelligence, education, fame and material possessions.
It hurts, whenever i behold someone vibrating at the pitch of his/her tune "
HOW DARE YOU; DON'T YOU KNOW WHO I AM, I WILL SHOW YOU THAT I AM FROM ...." There is nothing we have amassed in life that no one else has ever gotten. There is only one thing that is worth bragging and that is “
HOW TO SPEND YOUR ETERNITY IN HEAVEN"
VANITIES NATURE OF LIFE.
Worldly Life is a tale told by an idiot, full of sound and fury and signifying nothing. Righteous life isn't boastful, pride or hate. Is all about helping the needy, counseling and putting smile on people face and laying-up an eternal treasure above.
Someone once say to me "Brother Paulinus Paul, my life is miserable. God didn't care about me. He is silent and has rejected me probably due to my addicted immoral lifestyles which am yet to overcome. My life is empty and void. I don't have hope or faith in God. I think he is tired of my life. Sometimes, i always thought of killing myself.
But i replied and said; my dear sister, has God beholdeth any SINNER whom he can't forgive? Has Jesus Christ beholdeth any SIN which his blood can't cleanse? I continue; some are seriously wreck-down with H.I.V virus. Some are presently in the hospital suffering from an Un-diagnosed illness. Some their legs and arm are amputated. Some are blind from birth and wish to behold the sun just for a minute.
Go to foster or motherless homes; millions of babies are weeping and beckoning unto someone to become their loving mother. Some are wrongly convicted, lavishing within the prison walls and wish to give anything in order to breathe the air of freedom. You need to appreciate God for whatever miserable condition you are bond with because God is working out something supersonic to the glory of his name. Moreover; if thou persecution, trials, suffering and sinfulness isn't big enough. Likewise, the testimonies of your life and salvation will be greatly small.
In fact, it can't even prink their heart or cause your brethren to rejoice to the glory of God. Therefore; the greater your encounter with disappointment, problems and troubles in life, the greater and higher shall joy and happiness encamp around the atmosphere of your testimonies.
ETERNITY REWARD FOR RIGHTEOUS SOUL.
The eye of the Lord is always revolving around us and wants to rewards each and every one of us someday in eternity. Banana stem will one day become rotten and dried-up. Likewise, we shall die someday but what righteous-legacy shall we left behind after death?
How many people have we putted smile on their face since the beginning of this year? How many brethren have we keenly observed in our church that hasn't honor church service for some weeks? How many of our brethren do we often Telephone-call during the day of church service to remind them of their service unto God? How many of our new convert or brethren have you followed-up or visited since the beginning of this year?
My beloved brethren; don't live a selfish christian ambition lifestyle. One day, one of us will no longer be here and then it will be too late to show them love and care for their eternal soul. Though, tears may flow but we shall be long gone.
So, send regard, text messages, make phone call to your long forgotten friends and relatives; tell them how much you love, pray and care for their eternal soul to be in heaven with Christ. If you can't fly then run, if you can't run then walk, if you can't walk then crawl, but whatever you do, ensure you keep pressing toward eternity in Heaven because life on earth is too short while eternity is so near.
