Thursday, January 21, 2021 The Devil's Word "This means that anyone who belongs to Christ has become a new person. The old life is gone; a new life has begun!" (2 Corinthians 5:17 NLT). What do you think is life's most dangerous word? Is it diet? Exercise? No. Life's most dangerous word is tomorrow. It sounds so innocent. But tomorrow is the road that leads to a town called Never. Tomorrow is the barred and bolted door that shuts people out of Heaven. Tomorrow is the Devil's word, and he has ripped-off so many people with his strategy. Yet the Bible says, "Today is the day of salvation" (2 Corinthians 6:2 NLT). King Nebuchadnezzar had a full year to get his act together, a full year to repent. But he blew it off. Then one day he looked out from his balcony and said, "Look at this great city of Babylon! By my own mighty power, I have built this beautiful city as my royal residence to display my majestic splendor" (Daniel 4:30 NLT). The Bible says that "while these words were still in his mouth, a voice called down from heaven, 'O King Nebuchadnezzar, this message is for you! You are no longer ruler of this kingdom'" (Daniel 4:31 NLT). |
