Matthew 28:1-20 (King James Version)

In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.
 
And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it. His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow: And for fear of him the keepers did shake, and became as dead men.

And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you.

And they departed quickly from the sepulchre with fear and great joy; and did run to bring his disciples word. And as they went to tell his disciples, behold, Jesus met them, saying, All hail. And they came and held him by the feet, and worshipped him.

Then said Jesus unto them, Be not afraid: go tell my brethren that they go into Galilee, and there shall they see me.

Now when they were going, behold, some of the watch came into the city, and shewed unto the chief priests all the things that were done. And when they were assembled with the elders, and had taken counsel, they gave large money unto the soldiers, Saying, Say ye, His disciples came by night, and stole him away while we slept. And if this come to the governor’s ears, we will persuade him, and secure you.

So they took the money, and did as they were taught: and this saying is commonly reported among the Jews until this day.

Then the eleven disciples went away into Galilee, into a mountain where Jesus had appointed them. And when they saw him, they worshipped him: but some doubted.

And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth. Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.

Malachi 4:1-3  For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch. But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. And ye shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the LORD of hosts.

God tells us clearly what will happen to those who have rejected him. They will be as stubble and they will be burned up. Stubble is the short, stiff stalks of grain or hay remaining on a field after harvesting. Since the wicked will remain as stubble, that means a harvest will have to come first. So, what is the harvest?

The harvest is the gathering of the Christian (or saved) people before that day happens. The Sun of righteousness (Jesus) will come and heal us of any and all infirmities we may have. He will gather us up and keep us safe. He will harvest us and take us away from the burning and heat that is coming. And after it is over, the wicked will be ashes.

If you have never accepted the Lord Jesus Christ as your Savior – as payment for all of your sins – do not delay. Accept him today. Confess your sins. Tell God you accept His Son Jesus as your Lord and Savior. Ask Jesus to cleanse you and to save you. He is waiting for you to ask. Ask sincerely – be honest with God because he knows your heart.

Do not be caught without Jesus’ protection on that day spoken about in Malachi 4. Be ready. No person knows the day or time. We are to be ready at all times, every day. Do it now – right this minute.

Until next time,

Psalm 46:10 
Be still, and know that I am God: I will be exalted among the heathen, I will be exalted in the earth.

There are times when God expects us to just be still and wait on Him. Be still and know that God is God and He will take care of you. Be still and listen for the voice of God. Sometimes we have to be still in order to hear Him because there are times when He speaks in a still small voice. He tells us that in the Bible when He was speaking to Elijah. (I suggest you read the whole 19th chapter of 1 Kings – or even that whole story to get the full details of what happened before this point.)

1 Kings 19:11-12  And he said, Go forth, and stand upon the mount before the LORD. And, behold, the LORD passed by, and a great and strong wind rent the mountains, and brake in pieces the rocks before the LORD; but the LORD was not in the wind: and after the wind an earthquake; but the LORD was not in the earthquake: And after the earthquake a fire; but the LORD was not in the fire: and after the fire a still small voice.

If you are having problems hearing the Lord, maybe it is your time to be still and know that He is God!

Jeremiah 14:14 

Then the LORD said unto me, The prophets prophesy lies in my name: I sent them not, neither have I commanded them, neither spake unto them: they prophesy unto you a false vision and divination, and a thing of nought, and the deceit of their heart.

It is good to have a vision for your life – to have some idea of where you are headed whether in business or everyday life. We do have to stay alert though and test the spirits to know whether our visions are false.

If you get a vision, pray about it. Ask God to reveal to you whether this is a true vision sent from him, or is it a false vision. False visions will always lead you away from God. True visions will lead you closer to God.

There are many false prophets out there who say that they receive visions in God’s name and it is just not true. Never take one person’s word about such things. Always test the spirits. If you read the Bible, you will see that usually whenever God’s people received a vision, it was always reinforced by it being shown twice and sometimes three times.

Reincarnation is a myth. It is a lie of Satan. If we do not get it (our lives) right this time around, there will not be a second time.

Hebrews 9:27-28  And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment: So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin unto salvation.

When a person dies there is no coming back to try it over again. The Bible says, “Once to die.” One time only – you live your life – then you die. Then, you face the judgment. What judgement? God’s judgement.

That is why Jesus Christ gave his life for us. He knew we only had one chance to get it right and that we could not get it right on our own. Salvation and the saving grace from God’s judgment is Jesus Christ.

Accept Him or Reject Him! It is your choice.
