THE WITNESS STAND

People do not live by bread alone; rather, we live by every word that comes from the mouth of the Lord.”Deuteronomy 8:3

One day soon we will each take the witness stand.We will stand before our living God and be accountable for all that we have said and done in our lives.We will be accountable for each idle word and every wrong thing that we do.We currently live in God’s time of grace.We still have time to accept our Lord Jesus, as our Lord and Savior.We still have time to repent of our sins and have them wiped clean from the record book.It is time for us to stop trying to live our lives day by day in our worldly ways.It is time to begin to feed our spirits by listening and doing what the Word of God tells us to do.Our God made each of us in such a way that we need food and water to keep our earthly bodies nourish and strengthened each day.However, if don’t keep our spirit strong and nourished by his Holy Word then it will die.When we get to the witness stand, we want to hear the words, WELL DONE MY CHILD.We do not want to be standing there trying to convince God that the evil things we have done in our lives here on earth were actually for his good.We do not want to be there trying to convince our God of our reasons for not accepting Christ as our Lord and Savior when he gave us opportunities.Each morning we should read God’s Word and feed our spirits.Each day we should feed our spirits by praying and praising Him. We must always remember that we are only visitors to this world.We are spiritual beings living in a world of selfishness and evil.The time is now if you have not already accepted Jesus as your Lord and Savior.It is time to surrender and give your life to him.We must be properly prepared for the witness stand that is coming.JESUS IS LORD!
