THE URGENCY OF THE GOSPEL

I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work (John 9:4).

Time is one of the most precious resources you have, and the urgency of the moment demands that you use it wisely. Jesus knew this. He spoke of doing the Father’s work while it is day, revealing the urgency of the times and the shortness of the window we’ve been given.

There’s coming a time when the opportunities we have now to freely preach the Gospel will be gone. The doors we now walk through freely may one day be closed. That’s why you must act with urgency, preaching the Gospel. Impact your world with the light of Christ’s salvation now.

Delay in evangelism can mean eternal loss for someone who needed to hear the truth from you today. That co-worker, neighbour or friend may not have another chance. You’re their light; you’re God’s point of contact to bring them out of darkness into the glorious liberty of the sons of God. Don’t let them live another day without God. The Bible paints the gloomy state of those who live without God and without Christ in the world (Ephesians 2:12). They’re hopeless, in despair, and doomed to destruction. But you’re their hope.

This is not a season for complacent Christianity but a time for bold action, a time to complete the full preaching of the Gospel in all nations. Let your life be aligned with heaven’s urgency. Every moment matters. Every soul counts. Therefore, be led by the Spirit and seize the moment. Do all you can while you can!

Recall the words of the Master, “I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work” (John 9:4). The night approaches, but for now, we shine, proclaiming God’s truth, turning sinners to righteousness. We’re compelled by Christ’s love, and in the words of the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 9:16, necessity is laid upon us to preach the Gospel. Woe unto us if we don’t preach the Gospel. The nations are ready and ripe with harvest, and we’re bringing in the sheaves.

2 Corinthians 6:1-2 KJV
We then, [as] workers together [with him], beseech [you] also that ye receive not the grace of God in vain. 2 (For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee: behold, now [is] the accepted time; behold, now [is] the day of salvation.)

1 Corinthians 9:16 KJV
For though I preach the gospel, I have nothing to glory of: for necessity is laid upon me; yea, woe is unto me, if I preach not the gospel!

Romans 13:11-12 KJV
And that, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. 12 The night is far spent, the day is at hand: let us therefore cast off the works of darkness, and let us put on the armour of light.
