Thought For Today – January 18
When The roll Is Called Up Yonder!

“I will greatly rejoice in
the Lord, my soul shall be joyful in my God; for he hath clothed me
with the garments of salvation, he hath covered me with the robe of
righteousness, as a bridegroom decketh himself with ornaments, and as
a bride adorneth herself with her jewels.”
“And he answered and spoke
unto those who stood before him, saying, take away the filthy
garments from him. And unto him he said, behold, I have caused thine
iniquity to pass from thee, and I will clothe thee with change of
raiment.” Zec 3:4.
“And when the king came in to
see the guests, he saw a man there which had not on a wedding
garment: and he saith unto him, friend , how camest thou in hither,
not having a wedding garment? And he was speechless. Then said the
king to the servants, bind him hand and foot, and take him away, and
cast him into outer darkness: there shall be weeping and gnashing of
teeth. For many are called, but few are chosen.” Matthew 22:
11-14.
“He that overcometh, the same
shall be clothed in white raiment: and I will not blot out his name
out of the book of life, but I will confess his name before my
Father, and before his angels.” Rev 3:5.
When the roll is called up
yonder, will you be there? Is your name recorded in the Lamb's book
of life? Have you responded to the Lord's invitation to sit at the
banqueting table at the wedding feast of the Lord? Have your filthy
clothes been changed, and have you allowed the Lord to clothe you
with the shinning white garments of his righteousness.?
Have you acknowledged that you are a sinner by nature, as we all are, and that your own self righteousness is as filthy rags? We all need to be bathed in the blood of the Lamb of God, and clothed with his garments of righteousness. Unless we believe and come to Christ, and accept him as Savior and sacrifice for our sins, we will have to appear before God in our filthy rags, and our name will have been blotted out of the Lamb's book of life, and we will not hear the Lord calling our name to enter into the banqueting hall.

The Lord has a robe of
righteousness awaiting to be put on all those who will come to him
and believing in him. Do you know for sure that when the angel of
the Lord stands in heaven to call the roll of all the saints, that
your name will be called and not blotted out? If you are not sure
why not make sure of your salvation today, and believe and call upon
Christ before it is too late?
