Don’t Miss It

It’s Hard to believe another year has come and gone. It seems as though it was only yesterday that I trained myself to write 2019 on everything and now it starts all over again with 2020.

I believe the Lord is speaking to us as His children that this year is going to be a year of turmoil for those who are not walking with Him. But those who are seeking Him and His will, the year 2020 is going to be a year of double portions. This Year will be a year of great expectancy.

As I was reflecting on what this past year had been, What had been done in this past year that was worthwhile and would remain for all eternity?

Then I thought of the verse, “For no other foundation can anyone lay than that which is laid, which is Jesus Christ. Now if anyone builds on this foundation with gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, straw, each one’s work will become manifest; for the day will declare it, because it will be revealed by fire; and fire will test each one’s work, of what sort it is.

If anyone’s work which he has built on it endures, he will receive a reward. If anyone’s work is burned, he will suffer loss; “[1 Cor. 3: 11-15 A].

That scripture makes it pretty clear, that what we do with our life and time is very important.

It’s a good time to look back and see if what we did this past year would burn up in the heavenly fire or did we do some building with the gold, silver and precious stones.

Now you know I’m talking about eternal things. Like what kind of an example did we set for those around us?

Did we Tithe to keep the church going, or just tip God on Sunday morning, did we give above our tithe so that God’s Covenant can be established.

Could Jesus be a part of what we entertain ourselves with, what we watch on T.V.?

It is written “But Lay up for yourselves treasures in

sures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust does corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:”[Matt.6:20]. Who did we talk to about

Jesus? ? Did we give Alms to help someone less fortunate than ourselves? Paul talked about being a pattern that someone else could live their lives by. He mentioned “Whether therefore you eat, or drink, or whatsoever you do, do all things to the glory of God” [1Cor. 10:31].

As we began this next year, what is our projected plan? I pray, as we make plans for this next year, we will not make new resolutions, but we will make new commitments, commitments and dedications to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

He said “Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His Righteousness and all these things will be added [ Matt. 6: 33].

This may be a time you are praising God for all the wonderful things He has done for you or those dangers and mistakes He saved you from. Or you may want to repent and get a fresh new start with The Father. As the end draws near in these last days we are going to find that The Lord is our only real help in times of trouble.

Let us get in on what God is doing and invest in those heavenly things that are everlasting. The payoff is Great! “Don’t Miss It”
