It won't last long

Here comes another beautiful day but, with something new to learn and know. And if you already know you may be thinking it wouldn't be so but, I am telling you categorically that "it won't last long."

If you know how to pretend, it won't last long. If you know how to dislodge others of their properties or belongings to make them yours, it won't last long. If you know how to kill for no just cause or for the purpose of getting rich, it won't last long. If you know how to cheat others to reap their sweat, it won't last long. If you know how to destroy others to get undue advantage over them, it won't last long. If you know how to make up and tell lies against someone who is innocent in order to get that person into trouble, it won't last long.

More so, if you know how to change women as garment, it won't last long. Even if you know how to jump from one man's bed to another man's bed, it won't last long. If you also know how to do evil without recourse to the aftermath effect, it won't last long. If you know how to bribe your ways to achieve greatness, it won't last long. No matter what you know how best to do through evil none of them will last long. Come to think about this, if you know how to use power to victimize others or to stigmatize others, it won't last long. If you also trust in your ill-gotten wealth or riches or position to afflict others in life, it won't last long.

Let us briefly go into the scripture for some example. Luke 16 vs. 19 to 31 says,
"There was a certain rich man, which was clothed in purple and fine linen, and fared sumptuously every day: and there was a certain beggar named Lazarus, which was laid at his gate, full of sores, and desiring to be fed with the crumbs which fell from the rich man's table: moreover the dogs came and licked his sores. And it came to pass, that the beggar died, and was carried by the angels into Abraham's bosom: the rich man also died, and was buried; and in hell he lift up his eyes, being in torments, and seeth Abraham affar off, and Lazarus in his bosom. And he cried and said, Father Abraham, have mercy on me, and send Lazarus, that he may dip the tip of his finger in water, and cool my tongue; for I am tormented in this flame. But Abraham said, son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented. And beside all this, between us and you there is a great gulf fixed: so that they which would pass from hence to you cannot; neither can they pass to us, that would come from thence. Then he said, I pray thee therefore, father, that thou wouldest send him to my father's house: for I have five brethren; that he may testify unto them, lest they also come into this place of torment. Abraham saith unto him, they have Moses and the prophets; let them hear them. And he said, nay, father Abraham: but if one went unto them from the dead, they will repent. And he said unto him, if they hear not Moses and the prophets, neither will they be persuaded, though one rose from the dead."

There are a lots of lessons to learn and know from the above Bible reference, and they are as follows:
  • The rich man thought he would continue to enjoy without end but, he was rudely shocked to know that all he had and was enjoying on earth won't last long.
  • The rich man thought he would continue to live the same life he was living on earth after death but, was again shocked to find himself in the place of torment.
  • The rich man also thought Lazarus would continue to suffer the same fate he suffered while he was on earth after death but, he, again, was caught with a wide shock.
  • The rich man, even, after noticing he was in place of torments and being in agony, still want to be ordering people about but, the case was not the same again.
  • The rich man also thought he could change the hands of clock to favor his brothers left behind in earth, but was told how impossible it would be.
  • The rich man thought he would be respected after death even while in the place of torment but, the case was not as expected.
Now, take a look at your lifestyle as at now, do you think it will last long? What about your ways of life, do you think it will also last long? Let us ponder on the ways you have been maltreating others to fall away from the right track, do you also think this will last long? What about your kidnapping business, do you still think it will last for long? Think about your waywardness, are you still in the belief that it will last long?

If, with everything that rich man had, and none of them was able to save him or last long for him to continue to oppress as he was used to while in earth, what gives you the impression that what you have or what you are doing will last long either?

This is a call to think about who you are right now. This is a call to think about your end. If for any reason, you think you can continue to change someone's destiny or tied someone's destiny from being fulfilled, let me tell you point blank that this won't also last long.

There are many other notable examples beside you that you know about, which of them last longer than you thought? There are other incidence you can pinpoint all around you, do they last long? If you have seen the end of the wicked, you will know that yours will not also last long. If you have seen the end of tyranny, it is a warning signal to you that yours won't also be different.

If you have seen the end of being a hooker or armed robber or hired assassin or kidnappers or adulterers or killers or power drunk people or witches or wizards or sorcerers, there's no way yours will last long and be different.

Think and re-think before you continue in that same attitude of no one can catch up with me; I am telling you sooner than expected, the hands of the clock will be turned against you, and by then, you will know that nothing last long.

Don't be at fault as the case of that rich man; it won't be surprising where you will find yourself if you continue to think that what you are doing and who you are presently will last long; IT WON'T LAST LONG. Remain blessed as you also pass this message across to others, and also make this blog known to others.
