“The Danger Of Delay”
Saturday, April 26, 2025Key Verse
“And while he lingered, the men laid hold upon his hand, and upon the hand of his wife, and upon the hand of his two daughters; the LORD being merciful unto him: and they brought him forth, and set him without the city” (Genesis 19:16).
Text —Genesis 19:15-17
Message
Many people have missed their scheduled flights because they wasted so much time at home. They postponed action on preparing for the trip and instead gave more time to things that might not be important and urgent, or important but not urgent. Hence John L. Mason declared that, “When a procrastinator has finally made up his mind, the opportunity has always passed by.” Do not linger or delay.
Youths who linger or postpone their salvation, should know that they are taking a very serious risk. Lot was lucky the angels laid hold on him and pulled him out of the doomed Sodom. The Lord is doing the same thing today. He is appealing to you to repent before it becomes too late. The blood of Jesus is still effective and still saving souls today. Do not linger or delay. Those who failed to come out of Sodom were destroyed by fire because of their sinful lifestyles and passion for continued disobedience to the voice of God. Come out of Sodom. Come out of Egypt. Repent and believe the gospel now!
