Monday, October 13, 2025Key Verse

Text —Joel 2:1-5
Message
In every generation, God has always chosen righteous people whether young or old to warn those living in the world of the danger of hell. Those who identify with Christ by repenting of their sins have a responsibility to sound the alarm and turn sinners to God.
God gives pastors to the church for the same reason which is to “Preach the word; be instance in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.” (2 Timothy 4:2) Friends of Jesus have the responsibility to sound the alarm for two reasons: to warn the church and to warn the world. To accomplish this great assignment, God has placed each of us strategically in neighbourhoods, in schools, in buses, in the market and in the churches to warn the people of the danger of sin and the need to repent and turn to God to avoid eternal punishment.
Your assignment is very simple: sound the alarm; send out the message through personal evangelism, street evangelism, market evangelism, sharing of tracts and Christian magazines etc. No one should miss the message of salvation so that sinful children will come to Christ and escape hell.
