Be mindful of the Word...!

2 Peter 3:2-4,10 NKJV

that you may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior, knowing this first: that scoffers will come in the last days, walking according to their own lusts, and saying, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they  were from the beginning of creation.” But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up.

† Shalom †......! Day #180. Do you know that in the last days scoffers will come walking according to their lust and ridicules the second coming of the Lord and the prophecies spoken by the prophets? Let us pray. Father, we want to be found faithful when You come for the second time. Let us not walk as the scoffers, but in obedience and in reverence. In Jesus name we ask and pray, amen!

Friends,  here apostle Peter is advising us to be "mindful of the words spoken by the Holy prophets". What does it means? Mindful means, to remember, to be alert, to study. The purified minds of Christians are to be stirred up, that they may be active and lively in the work of holiness. There will be scoffers in the last days, under the gospel, men who make light of sin, and mock at salvation by Jesus Christ. One very principal article of our faith refers to what only has a promise to rest upon, and scoffers will attack it till our Lord is come. They will not believe that He  will come. Because they see no changes, therefore they fear not God, Ps 55:19. What He never has done, they fancy He never can do, or never will do. Even there are already many who ridicules prophecy, giving their ears to hear soothing messages and not hard rebukes. There are even some who say, "Jesus isn't coming any sooner, let us party 🎉 ". But hey, don't they know it's the end of the world? They know! Yet they aren't giving heed to it. People don't bother to live the Lord's commandments, but theu twisting it for their own good. Sin is creeping into our church once again. You'll be witnessing real life Sodom and Gomorrah.

For since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they  were from the beginning of creation.” But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. People who living neglecting the second coming of the Lord is as same as a person who does not know when the thief will come. The thief will not give you a phone call and say "hey dude, I'm coming tonight to rob your house." NO! But the theif comes secretly, comes silently, comes suddenly. Never be given into the lies of the devil saying that the Lord will not come. Be alert and watchful. Focus on the presence of God.

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
