In other words, what do you want to have
accomplished/achieved/remembered for in specific aspects of your life?
Is being an inspiration to the society, your legacy?
Are your children your legacy?
Is your monetary/capital/property/entrepreneurial
investments your legacy?
Is your social connection/networking acumen your
legacy?
Is your professional achievements, attainment and
contribution your legacy?
Is your educational/academic achievements and attainment
your legacy?
Is your leadership achievements and attainment your
legacy?
Is your legacy “nothing to write home about”?
Are you “too young to have or to think of a legacy”?
All the above are good/okay. However, whatever age
(you are at), ensure that the ultimate legacy that you attain, is that your
name is found written in The LORD’s Book of life. For that is the only legacy
that will count, at the end of the day.
How do you ensure that your name is found written in
the Book of Life?
======By ensuring that you embrace Repentance for the
forgiveness of your sins through the blood of The LORD Jesus Christ, and
thereby partake of a pursuance of a walking & a living in Righteousness
(Seeking to be Right before The LORD), Holiness (Purity/Pure/Purification
before The LORD) and Wisdom (The Fear of The LORD/Reverence before The LORD The
God of Heaven). Also ensure that you Worship The LORD in Spirit and in Truth,
and that you Serve The LORD in purity, faithfulness and humility.
In other words, you (and I) must be born again
(partake of Salvation). Truly born again. This to attain the everlasting Legacy
of Eternal Life in the Kingdom of The LORD God Almighty in Heaven.
Do not miss out on this; your life depends on it: Your
Eternal life.
Preparation for it, is only done while still alive
here on earth (Not by might nor by power, but by The Spirit of The LORD). After
that, it will be too late to prepare.
SHALOM!!!
Ecclesiastes 1:1-18 ‘“The words of
the Preacher, the son of David, king in Jerusalem. “Vanity of vanities,” says
the Preacher; “Vanity of vanities, all is vanity (meaningless).” What
profit has a man from all his labor In which he toils under the sun? One
generation passes away, and another generation comes; But the earth abides
forever. The sun also rises, and the sun goes down, And hastens to the place
where it arose. The wind goes toward the south, And turns around to the north;
The wind whirls about continually, And comes again on its circuit. All the
rivers run into the sea, Yet the sea is not full; To the place from which the
rivers come, There they return again. All things are [d]full of labor; Man
cannot express it. The eye is not satisfied with seeing, Nor the ear filled
with hearing. That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what
will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun. Is there anything of
which it may be said, “See, this is new”? It has already been in ancient times
before us. There is no remembrance of former things, Nor will there be any
remembrance of things that are to come By those who will come after. I,
the Preacher, was king over Israel in Jerusalem. And I set my heart to seek and
search out by wisdom concerning all that is done under heaven; this burdensome
task God has given to the sons of man, by which they may be exercised. I have
seen all the works that are done under the sun; and indeed, all is vanity
(meaningless) and grasping for the wind. What is crooked cannot be
made straight, And what is lacking cannot be numbered. I communed with my
heart, saying, “Look, I have attained greatness, and have gained more wisdom
than all who were before me in Jerusalem. My heart has understood great wisdom
and knowledge.” And I set my heart to know wisdom and to know madness and
folly. I perceived that this also is grasping for the wind. For in
much wisdom is much grief, And he who increases knowledge increases sorrow.”’
Mark 8:36-38 ‘“For what will (shall) it profit a
man if he gains the whole world, and loses his own soul? Or what will a man
give in exchange for his soul? For whoever is ashamed of Me and My
words in this adulterous and sinful generation, of him the Son of Man also will
be ashamed when He comes in the glory of His Father with the holy angels.”’
John 3:1-8 ‘“There was a man of the Pharisees
named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews. This man came to Jesus by night and said
to Him, “Rabbi, we know that You are a teacher come from God; for no one can do
these signs that You do unless God is with him.” Jesus answered and
said to him, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born again, he cannot
see the kingdom of God.” Nicodemus said to Him, “How can a man be born
when he is old? Can he enter a second time into his mother’s womb and be born?”
Jesus answered, “Most assuredly, I say to you, unless one is born of water and
the Spirit, he cannot enter the kingdom of God. That which is born of the flesh
is flesh, and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit. Do not marvel that I
said to you, ‘You must be born again.’ The wind blows where it wishes, and you
hear the sound of it, but cannot tell where it comes from and where it goes. So
is everyone who is born of the Spirit.”’
Revelation 20:11-15 ‘“Then I saw a
great white throne and Him who sat on it, from whose face the earth and the
heaven fled away. And there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead,
small and great, standing before God, and books were opened. And
another book was opened, which is the Book of Life. And the dead were
judged according to their works, by the things which were written in the books.
The sea gave up the dead who were in it, and Death and Hades delivered up the
dead who were in them. And they were judged, each one according to his works.
Then Death and Hades were cast into the lake of fire. This is the
second death. And anyone not found written in the Book of Life was cast into
the lake of fire.”’
REPENTANCE PRAYER:
Precious Jesus,
I acknowledge today that
you are LORD and Savior of all mankind,
and today I have recognized
my shortfall,
I Repent and turn away from
all Sin.
Please cover me with your
Precious Blood,

my life,
that I may be found in
Righteousness and Holiness
and write my name in your
Book of Life
and baptize me with the
