As our nation battles over what is right or wrong in their own eyes without consideration of what the word of God says, I am reminded that there is a day of judgement coming. I am fearful of our future, but I am more fearful of what God’s judgement will bring unless our nation repents.
The Bible says; “For behold, the day is coming, burning like an oven, when all the arrogant and all evildoers will be stubble. The day that is coming shall set them ablaze, says the LORD of hosts, so that it will leave them neither root nor branch. (Malachi 4:1 ESV)
There is a day coming. We don’t talk about it much. We go about our days as if we have tomorrow. As if we are the masters of our future and that future depends on us–or on circumstances.
But…we forget.
There is a day coming.
For the evildoers. For the arrogant. They will be set afire.
Why don’t we listen to this warning? We know it’s coming–we may deny it; but I think deep down we all know that it is true. Our bodies long for it. Our bodies anticipate it. When we hear of it we are alert and on guard. That is how we are made.
But we continue to deny. We continue to live as nothing was about to occur. What if we did nothing to prepare for the hurricane?
There is a day coming. Are you prepared?

This post is a fresh rewrite from a post title “There is a Day” posted in December 2007. It is interesting that not very much of this post was changed because the truth is timeless. We must all repent of our sins and follow Christ to prepare for that day. For more information on following Christ at Forgive.me
