Not Too Late
How shall we escape, if we neglect so great salvation, which at the first began to be spoken by the Lord, and was confirmed unto us by them that heard him (Hebrew 2:3, KJV).
Mr. Moody had tried by the Spirit of God to lead a young man to Christ but he was blatantly uninterested. That night Mr. Moody was awakened by a loud knocking on his door. Putting his head out of the window, he saw a woman with a shawl wrapped around her. ‘Oh, Mr. Moody,’ she cried, her voice filled with anguish, ‘come quickly. My husband is sick, and I am afraid. Please come at once.’
In a moment, Mr. Moody recognized her as the wife of the young man he had spoken to that afternoon. ‘It would be no use’, was his reply. ‘Your husband gave me his final refusal this afternoon. He had crossed the deadline. It would be useless for me to go.’ But because of her entreaties, he got dressed and went. As he mounted the steps he saw the young man lying on his back on the bed, his eyes wide open, but apparently unconscious of those around him.
As he approached he heard him uttering just two words, ‘Too late! Too late!’ kneeling down by his side, he grasped his hand, opened his Bible and commenced to pray. But the young man paid no attention whatsoever. He just kept staring up at the ceiling, and crying out, ‘Too late! Too late! Too late!’ Mr. Moody did everything to arouse him, but there was no recognition, and in a few minutes he expired, still claiming as he had before, ‘Too late!’
Dear friend, thank God it’s not too late for you yet. But it is dangerous to continue to reject God’s offer of salvation. You have to receive Jesus as your own personal Saviour now to escape eternal damnation. Invite Him into your life right now. He will honour your invitation and give you His glorious life. I pray, it shall not be too late for you. In Jesus name!
Today’s corporate prayer: I ask that by divine mercy, salvation shall not be too late for me. In Jesus merciful name!
