We've got a message for the whole world and we want them to know that Jesus didn't die for nothing. That Man that died on the cross didn't die a religious death; He's real. He's real in my heart. Hallelujah! And one of these days He'll come back and I'm looking forward to that. He's coming again. That's why we're telling men and women around the world: "Get ready! He's coming again! He's coming again!"
"And the dead in Christ shall rise first and we that are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them to meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord."
Prepare your life because He's coming again. We're not preaching for nothing; no! We're getting men and women prepared for the soon coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. He's coming for a Church without spot, without wrinkle or any blemish or any such thing; a Church that is holy and undefiled, a Church that is living in faith, walking in faith, walking in the Word of God; manifesting the realities of the Kingdom of God. That's the Church He's coming for. If that Kingdom is not in your heart, there's no way you're gonna go in there.
It's for those who have lived it from their spirits and that's why the Bible talks about the spirits of just men made perfect: those who have gone ahead of us.
One day very soon we will be caught up from here. This world is not our home; it belongs to us but it's not our home. We're the Seed of Abraham. So get ready!
One soul means so much to God. The Bible says for the salvation of just one soul there's joy in heaven. I wonder why any Christian would ask the question, "Must I preach the Gospel?" What else do you want to preach? What is your life for? Why do you live? What do you want to live for?
He left us here to win souls to Christ. He gave us the whole world. It means so much to Him.
"For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil" and save men and bring them into the righteousness of God. That's what we live for. There's no other reason. It's not for your business. It's not for your biological family. There's a spiritual family that means so much to God. That's what you live for. And if you make up your mind to be what God raised you to be then you fulfil his dream. Don't live an empty life. It's useless to do so. Give your heart to the Lord truly and say, "Lord Jesus, I belong to You. I'll live every day for You. I'll keep your consciousness in my mind, in my soul, in my spirit every day" and walk in the knowledge of His victory and be the victor He's made you. Refuse to succumb to the pressures of this world! Refuse! Stand strong in Him! Be alert and alive because Christ Jesus has given you power over all devils. He's given you power over fear. Be not afraid of anything. Stand strong because He's made you a victor in this life! As He is so are we in this world.
And when He comes again, we'll bring our sheaves with us. Glory to God! We'll present all that we've won to Him. And He'll say, "Well done, thou good and faithful servant. Enter into the joy of thy Lord."
That's what our singing is for, that's what our worship is for, that's what our giving is for. That's what everything we do is for.
With that consciousness: my Lord is coming again. He's coming!
He's called the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob! The same God the prophets knew, the same God the apostles knew! Thank God!
"There's no other name under heaven given amongst men whereby they may be saved."
