"Vengeance is Mine and recompense; their feet shall slip in due time; for the day of their calamity is at hand, and the things to come hasten upon them."
Deuteronomy 32:35 NKJV
God was ready to take vengeance on Israel's enemies but, Israel had to learn a lesson first. They needed to stop relying on their false gods for help in times of troubles and, turn to God for help. He would then act on their behalf.
The great preacher Jonathan Edwards, used this text when he preached his infamous sermon - 'Sinners in the hands of an angry God', in 1741 at The Great Awakening in Enfield, Connecticut. The impact on the crowd was astonishing; they were hanging on to chairs, tables and even trees outside of the church, to prevent them sliding into hell. Many of these people were unsaved, critical and unsavoury men and women, who paid little attention to God. But this day they had turned up to listen to this man who the town were talking about. The result was they had a great awakening and they repented and were never the same again.
God knows who are genuine believers and He also knows those who profess to be but, haven't actually asked Jesus into their lives. Let me just say this, time is running out. Take a look at our world, it is full of evil and its decaying rapidly. People are far away from Jesus and are dying in their sin and all they have to look forward to, is eternity in hell, separated from God and their believing loved one's.
Don't get left out. You may have been a Christian but, something happened to turn you away. Turn back to Him now. Others may never have thought about Jesus properly but, He has thought about you, often. Being a Christian is not a fairy tale. You will still have problems but, you will have Jesus to help you. Whatever has happened, Jesus will take revenge on all who have hurt you. Just leave it to Him and come and give your life to Him now:
'Lord Jesus, I repent of all my wrong-doing. Please forgive my sins. I am sorry. Please come and live in my heart and, fill me with Your Holy Spirit and be my Lord and Saviour. Amen
One thing is for sure, you will not now, slide into hell, you'll walk into heaven and the ams of Jesus when you die. Until then, walk happily with Jesus.
