[2 Corinthians 5:11 KJV] “Knowing therefore the terror of the Lord, we persuade men; but we are made manifest unto God; and I trust also are made manifest in your consciences”.
Sometimes I wonder why a greater portion of the Church is so cold towards the lost and the work of soul winning. Indeed, there cannot be any greater reason than the fact that many of us are unaware of the terror of the Lord. If only we knew the terror of the Lord we would stop at nothing to warn the lost especially our friends and family.
The Apostle Paul states that those who know the terror of the Lord cease not to persuade all men. Those of us who know the terror of the Lord strive to persuade all men. I pray that the church of God will be awakened to discern and understand the terror of the Lord. We have come to know so much about the grace and love of God but so little about the terror of the Lord.
May this generation wake up to this reality. There is no better trigger or catalyst to a revival than the knowledge of the terror of the Lord. When this generation begins to understand the terror of the Lord, we will be moved with compassion to reach out to the lost and the indulgent.
If only we knew the terror of the Lord, we would not be so casual with our response to our duties in the ministry or to the call to service. When we gain understanding into the severity of terror of the Lord, we would be quickened and inspired to reach out to the down-and-out and to the lost.
No sacrifice is too big if it is meant to save the lost and bring the wanderer back home. The value of a soul is too much for any to be lost. The price of winning a soul is nothing as compared to the value of a soul. May the Lord awaken His church to reach out to the lost!
I dare say that if we knew the terror of the Lord, we would stop at nothing to persuade men. This is the time and season to reach out and persuade men. Any value lost in the pursuit of the lost is no loss at all. Arise and get involved!
Stay blessed; I love you!
