Comprehension, while reading the word of God, is key to any individual who has read the bible. Beloved, what is your understanding, regarding the Scripture quoted above? No matter the circumstance you find yourself in life, the bible passage above, is an open check to all souls reading the Holy scriptures.

47. Because thou servedst not the Lord thy God with joyfulness, and with gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things; 
48. Therefore shalt thou serve thine enemies which the Lord shall send against thee, in hunger, and in thirst, and in nakedness, and in want of all things, and he shall put a yoke of iron upon thy neck, until he have destroyed thee.

This is one of the bible passages, that makes me tremble before the Lord Most High. With this scripture, I am obligated to do whatever am doing for or with God joyfully; without thinking of men's praise but God's glory. Beloved, the Lord demands not just our service, but also a joyful service. The bible made it very clear, that anyone, who serves God, without joyfulness of heart is cursed. The Lord, desires that we serve Him with the whole of our heart and mind. For the abundance of things, the Lord Has done for us, He demands us to serve Him joyfully. We're not expected to be pushed to do the work of God. We're not supposed to look at others before serving God. As a matter of fact, we're required to work for God selflessly, and joyfully.

Beloved, there is a long and sure awaited event, which is the rapture of the Holy church of Christ. Indeed, the Holy Angels of God, and the Saints in heaven, are eager to witness this undeniable event. It is written, we shall be changed in a twinkling of an eye. The question is, what would you be changed into? Unquestionably, two changes takes place. One set of people to corruptible, while the other set to incorruptible. Some for eternal life in heaven and some for eternal destruction in Hell fire.

Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, is asking everyone living on earth this very serious question. Everyone on earth, has been given a specific gift to beautify, and add meaning to his or her life. An individual would have lived a wasted life without fulfilling the purpose for which he or she has been created. Each person, must strive very hard not to lose his or her gift. Jesus Christ, left His exalted throne in heaven; and came to earth to give His gift to humanity. Unfortunately, humanity has rejected such gift; that would have given them a place in eternity in heaven. John 3:16.

16. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

17. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.

According to the book of John 14:1-3, Jesus Christ our Lord and Savior, had told us that, He was going to prepare a place for us in heaven. He promised to come back and take us to where He is that we might be there also eternally with Him.

There is a specific purpose, and a specific reason God Has created everyone on earth. Before our formation in the womb, the Lord had plan for everyone according to Jeremiah 1 : 5. Therefore, the Lord expects everyone on earth to fulfill his or her purpose of being created. Each individual can only fulfill his or her purpose here on earth, only if he or she is aware of what is written concerning him or her originally by God. Unfortunately, these individuals fail to fulfill their purposes thereby their reason for existence is rendered useless.

The problem that most people are into today is caused by what they had said with their own mouth. Many people, even majority of believers don't know when to be quite.

Today, many Christians are crying and saying they want to hear from God. How can that be possible? When they themselves are busy, talking and not giving time to listening to God. 

This is a subject every believer must be serious and careful about. Sometimes, we ask ourselves questions on our walk with God, to know if it would be able to stand the test of time. Our work as believers is a sensitive one, therefore, it should not be joked with. One day, we would definitely give an account to Jesus Christ for our walk with him. Unfortunately, it's a pity, some Christians are playing games with their salvation and eternity by living in sin without considering the consequence of hell fire.
