Procrastination

Are you thinking about becoming a Christian but are waiting for a more "convenient season" like Felix in Acts 24:25? You are carelessly risking your soul.

Have you once "known the way of righteousness", but turned "from the holy commandment delivered unto" you (II Peter 2:21) and now say "I’ll straighten out one of these days." Your procrastination is likely to cause you to spend an eternity with the devil.

If you’re saying, "I’m going to be faithful to the Lord, but first I am going to do this," Jesus says you are not "fit for the kingdom of God" in Luke 9:62. We never know if we’re going to have even one more day here on this earth. Proverbs 27:1 reads "Boast not thyself of tomorrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth." James 4:13-14 reads, "Go to now, ye that say, Today or tomorrow we will go into such a city, and continue there a year, and buy and sell, and get gain: Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away."

If you are putting it off, you are gambling you will still be alive at some future point in time. Your gamble is a silly one because you have everything to lose and nothing to gain. If you lose the gamble, you lose your soul. If you win the gamble and live until the day you become faithful to God, your waiting has not gained you a solitary thing. Won’t you obey now before it is too late?
