THE NARROW ROAD TO HEAVEN

Apst. Emmanuel Osezele

KEY TEXT: Matthew 7:13-14 KJV: "Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it."

THE ROAD TO HEAVEN: The road to Heaven is narrower than you think. To enter Heaven is harder than what we may envision it to be. But the hardship of making it to Heaven does not stop or hinder God’s mercies that enable us to make it there. (Matthew 7:13-14)

TOTAL DEPENDENCE ON GOD’S MERCY: Making it to Heaven is going to take all of us, and also all of God’s mercies. We are to strive for Heaven as if there is no other way to do so, but also completely trusting that it is just the mercies of God that will take us there. (Romans 9:16)

STRIVE, BUT TRUST IN THE HOLY SPIRIT’S LEADING: Beloved, many have desired to strive for Heaven, many have sought to try their best to go there, but unfortunately they could not make it, because of sin in their lives. So therefore, lean on God’s strength and help, humble yourself to learn truth, and walk hand in hand with the Holy Ghost, asking Him every question so you are not unfortunately surprised in the end. Safe Journey. (1 Corinthians 10:12, Galatians 5:16)

PRAYER:

Heavenly Father, help me give all that it takes to make it into Heaven. Give me the supernatural grace that takes people into Heaven, in Jesus Christ’s mighty name, Amen.

REFLECTION:

Matthew 7:21 KJV: “Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.”
