The Lord Jesus Christ gave me a dream that my sister and I should
evangelise to our Grandmother because she was about to die.She lives in
another province so we told my Aunty over the phone to be encouraging
her to read the bible.
Then I had another dream where I saw
horrible demons waiting for her in Hell.Some where in snake form,dragon
form,dogs and very fat demons.They were preparing for her torture and I
heard in the dream that she was going to die in about a week.I woke up
very terrified and realised we had not done our best in evangelising to
her.So we called my Aunty to hand her the phone that we may talk to her.
This time, we told her directly to stop using traditional medicines as
protection from witchcraft because only Jesus can protect her. We told
her that those remedies carried demons.We told her to be praying,reading
the Bible and we prayed for her to be baptised with the Holy Spirit
just over the phone.
She was very willing and said she wanted Jesus
Christ right there and then.She said she would stop using traditional
medicines and that she would be reading the bible.Her response was very
shocking and we saw it clearly that the Lord had softened her heart to
receive him. Ezekiel 36:26 "And I will give you a new heart, and a new
spirit I will put within you. And I will remove the heart of stone from
your flesh and give you a heart of flesh."
Then the most shocking
thing happened.My very young vibrant Aunty whom we used to pass the
messages to my Grandmother died.She died before my Grandmother and this
left everyone wondering why the Lord had not given a message concerning
her Soul.
My Grandmother died shortly after her and the Lord
showed me a vision where she became young,very happy and the gates of
Heaven swinging wide open for her.He also showed me my Aunty falling
into the pit of Hell and a lot of demons receiving her.
2 Corinthians 6:2 says " I tell you, now is the time of God's favor,for today is the day of salvation."
To be alive and able to repent is God's favour.The Lord had given my
Aunty many chances to repent but she may have been hardening her Heart.
She may have thought she has more time. He gave my grandmother who
received Salvation at her last minute the reward of the Kingdom of
Heaven the same just like someone who has served him their whole
life.Someone who knew the Lord earlier than her may have even
backslidden and failed to enter while she did.That is the Grace of
God.Matthew 20:1-16.
If you cry out to God with all your heart,he
hears you.If you ask him to wash you clean of all your wrongs,he does
but do not take him for granted. Do not think he'll warn you right
before you die.Do not expect any special favour just because he uses
you,the Lord has no partiality.People in Hell can not repent because
forgiveness is only here on earth.The Lord knew my Aunty would die even
earlier than my Grandmother but he did not warn her because she had used
up all her chances of Salvation.Instead,he warned my Grandmother and
prepared her heart to recieve him.That is what happens when you take God
for granted.He can pass you right by and save the person next to
you,leaving you doomed. Are you hardening your heart?The Lord can give
you a heart of flesh which is able to accept him like he did my
Grandmother.Are you taking him for granted? He can use you as a medium
to save someone while you are going to Hell yourself.Life on earth is
only a passing Shadow,the reality is eternity.Choose wisely.
THE FIRST SHALL BE THE LAST.
