THE LAMP DEVOTION

Acts 17:30-31
30 Truly, these times of ignorance God overlooked, but now commands all men everywhere to repent, 31 because He has appointed a day on which He will judge the world in righteousness by the Man whom He has ordained. He has given assurance of this to all by raising Him from the dead.”

John 3:16 stands as one of the greatest verses in the bible. It simply summarizes what God has been doing since man fell from the glory of God in the early dawn of creation. The critical portion of that verse is “whosoever”. The word means the invitation is for everyone. The salvation God offered humanity by the death of His Son on the cross is not restricted to a group of people on earth.
God wants all men to come to the knowledge of the truth and be saved. There is a place in heaven for all the almost 7.9 billion people living on the earth today, as well as those that will be added if Jesus tarries His coming.
That is why He commands all men everywhere to repent. There are a lot of religions in the world today, trying to offer people hope for living now and for some of them in the future. All these ones that came after Calvary add up to the ones before Calvary that God calls times of ignorance. It is sad that after Jesus came, more ignorance has crept in. Many popular religions today are among the biggest deceptions of the enemy that crept in.
This is yet another reason we must gird our loins, pray, prepare ourselves, invest in time and money to reach out to the lost. He has said in His word that He does not delight in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked should repent and live. God wants them in, and He will save them if they come.

Prayer
1. Thank God that the gates of heaven are still open for many to come in.
2. Pray that you will be a vessel in God’s hands to bring many into the kingdom.
3. Father, let my life now be given fully for God for souls for heaven.

Declarations
I declare that my heart is full of compassion for the lost. I carry them with me each time I enter my closet. Praying for the lost shall be my passion forever at every opportunity I get to share the gospel. I declare that God will always bring the lost my way to share the gospel with in the name of Jesus.
