Almost is never Enough!!
almost
not quite; very nearly
Acts 26:28
Then Agrippa said unto Paul, Almost thou persuadest me to be a Christian.
To almost do something is not doing it at all. We almost got married, we almost had a baby,you almost went to college, you almost ...... You can almost do something but never really quite make it to the end well does it even count for anything! Ive started alot of things in my life but never finished alot of things i have given up right before the end! Following this vision God has for my life is tiring at time i just want to just go back to college and say i almost had what God said i could but decided to go another way. Can you say I almost decided to follow Jesus. Well did you or didn't you! Almost is never enough because its either you did or you didnt!
So Close!
Matthew 7:21-23
21 “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. 22 Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ 23 And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’
What if you got before God thought you were about to get into heaven and God just said no! SORRY ! WHO ARE YOU! MAN SO CLOSE BUT NO! I DONT KNOW YOU? Lived a life thinking you were going to heaven but in reality you where not even close. Close is close but its not good enough. Well i was so close to getting into heaven but got to see God and he said he didnt know me so now i have to spend my life in hell! Almost is never enough, so close is still not good enough!
I will do it later!
Luke 12:15-20 And he said unto them, Take heed, and beware of covetousness: for a man's life consisteth not in the abundance of the things which he possesseth. And he spake a parable unto them, saying, The ground of a certain rich man brought forth plentifully:17 And he thought within himself, saying, What shall I do, because I have no room where to bestow my fruits?18 And he said, This will I do: I will pull down my barns, and build greater; and there will I bestow all my fruits and my goods.19 And I will say to my soul, Soul, thou hast much goods laid up for many years; take thine ease, eat, drink, and be merry.20 But God said unto him, Thou fool, this night thy soul shall be required of thee: then whose shall those things be, which thou hast provided?
Sometimes there is not a later. This man thought that he had a later he spent his whole life trying to save up what the world said was good for him. Yet when he turned around death was knocking at his door. Sometimes we put things off in our life thinking we have time. Yet sometimes that is not the case. What would happen if you died tomorrow where would you go? Heaven or hell? Somethings you can not put off because if you do you may not have tomorrow!So do it now!
Do it Now!
now
nou/Submit
adverb
1.
at the present time or moment.
Matthew 14:28-29 And Peter answered him and said, Lord, if it be thou, bid me come unto thee on the water.29 And he said, Come. And when Peter was come down out of the ship, he walked on the water, to go to Jesus.
Do it now! See peter saw a place in his life to step out on faith!So he took it. He didnt wait he said Lord if its you tell me to come and he came!When it was Jesus he didnt wait he did it now. Dont almost step out on faith, dont do it when its to late and you miss the move of God,do npt dont it when its to late. Do it now! Hebrews 11:1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. Now FAITH!!hAVE A NOW FAITH! A FAITH that say I did it I made it to the place i thought i would, i followed Jesus, I had a baby , i got married, i moved, i went to college!No more almost! Yet Do it Now! Have Faith!
Job 8:7 Though thy beginning was small, yet thy latter end should greatly increase.
