He that hath ears to hear, let him hear

I. The Delusion of the Wicked and the Gentleness of Divine Correction

The world teeters on the edge of collapse, gripped by rebellion, selfishness, and spiritual blindness. As nations rage and leaders conspire, many walk in darkness, unable to discern the times or the truth. The Word warns us:

"There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death." (Proverbs 14:12, KJV)

Death and destruction await those who follow after the evil one. In a world seduced by perversion, power, and pride, many do not know the ways of the kingdom of God. They have been blinded by false doctrines, secular humanism, and demonic influences.

Yet even now, the Lord chastens gently, offering correction as a good Shepherd prods His sheep back onto the narrow path:

"For whom the Lord loveth he chasteneth, and scourgeth every son whom he receiveth." (Hebrews 12:6, KJV)

He is still calling. His rod is not for destruction, but for direction. He desires repentance, not ruin.

II. The Voice of the Shepherd and the Dividing of the Fold

Christ's sheep know His voice. Those who drink daily of the living water, which flows from His Spirit and His Word, are sustained through deception, persecution, and tribulation.

"My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me." (John 10:27, KJV)

But many have wandered. They’ve built their own folds, their own churches, their own doctrines that reject holiness and embrace compromise. They follow a counterfeit shepherd, the deceiver of souls. The wolves have been allowed in, and the sheep are being devoured.

"For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears." (2 Timothy 4:3, KJV)

This separation has begun. The wheat and tares are maturing. Judgment begins at the house of God (1 Peter 4:17). Will you hear the voice of the True Shepherd?

III. The Late Hour and the Call to Consecration

The time is late. The window of grace is closing. The desire of the Lord is for each of us to turn from our selfishness, our carnality, our vanity, and our compromise:

"If any man will come after me, let him deny himself, and take up his cross, and follow me." (Matthew 16:24, KJV)

Only the way of Christ leads to righteousness. There is no alternative path. The time for half-hearted belief is over. The Spirit of the Lord is calling for complete surrender. Cast off the weights and sins that so easily beset you (Hebrews 12:1).

"Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me." (Psalm 51:10, KJV)

This is the season to seek a new heart, to let Him remove the heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh (Ezekiel 36:26).

IV. A Pure Bride for a Holy Kingdom

The Father’s house is holy. No deceitful or corrupted heart shall enter. The Lamb is worthy, and His bride must be without spot or wrinkle.

"Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God." (Matthew 5:8, KJV)

Imagine a world without sin, without deception, without pain. That is the promise of His coming kingdom. But that kingdom is not for those who love the world.

"Love not the world, neither the things that are in the world. If any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him." (1 John 2:15, KJV)

The trumpet is about to sound. The King is coming. Will He find you watching, praying, ready, purified, and consecrated?

V. A Final Call to Repentance and Salvation

Time is short. He comes quickly, suddenly, and without delay. The door is closing.

"Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book." (Revelation 22:7, KJV)

Now is the day of salvation. Surrender your will. Humble your heart. He is the Holy One of Israel. He is the Prince of Peace. He is the Lamb slain for the sin of the world.

"Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world." (John 1:29, KJV)

VI. The Gospel Invitation

All have sinned. "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:23, KJV)

Sin brings death."For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." (Romans 6:23, KJV)

Jesus paid the price."But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us." (Romans 5:8, KJV)

Confess and believe."That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved." (Romans 10:9, KJV)

VII. Conclusion

The door is closing. The Bridegroom is coming. The kingdom will soon be established in righteousness and truth. Do not delay. Today is the day to forsake wickedness, embrace holiness, and abide in the love and mercy of Jesus Christ.

Sound the alarm. Warn the nations. Call the prodigals home. Prepare the way of the Lord.

He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.

Worthy is the Lamb.
