RHAPSODY OF REALITIES **Seize The Moment: Preach The Gospel Now. ** Friday 13th May . Pastor Chris

Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine (2 Timothy 4:2).

Our opening verse was Apostle Paul's charge to Timothy. He said, "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season...." This is God's charge to you today; preach the Word, in season and out of season. There're nations today where you can't preach the Gospel openly, but some years ago, they were open. Preach the Word now before the doors of some nations are closed; some cities will be closed very soon, and you won't be able to preach the Gospel there, like you can now.

There're many ways that a nation or city gets closed. For instance, when in a country, there're cities and states where you can't organize open-air gospel meetings because of prohibitions, it means that city or nation is closed. Even when you attempt to organise such meetings, the security agencies will tell you, "We can't accept or allow you to do it." Another example is when some nations enact laws against conversion, so that it becomes difficult for a Christian to lead someone else to Christ. Some even prohibit personal conversion; meaning, no one is allowed to convert himself from the state religion to Christianity.

Jesus said, "I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work" (John 9:4). The time to preach the Gospel is now! If the Spirit of God is leading you and giving you a vision to organize soul-winning outreaches, do it quickly. Seize the moment! If you wait, it might be too late. Be relentless in your evangelical work.
Don't take it for granted if you're still able to distribute Rhapsody of Realities in your city or country; do it more now, while you can. Pray for the nations of the world, and move quickly. Treasure the freedom and opportunities you have now to preach the Gospel.

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for the opportunities I have to preach the Word to those around me. I move with the speed and urgency of the Spirit, guided by your wisdom in leading many to righteousness. I receive increased grace and ability to fulfil the ministry of reconciliation to those in my world, and in the regions beyond, in Jesus' Name. Amen.
