HOW AND WHY I MISSED MY FLIGHT TODAY My wife and I were fully informed and later booked for a local flight to another city here in Nigeria since early November this year. Due to our busy task and activities, we started preparing for this trip early; we were putting things in place so that nothing would fall short during our travel away period. But it got to a point when it seems we were over preparing. “Is it not this few days holiday trip? Everything is almost set. “ We also felt, “ The date is still far away, let’s relax so we don’t over prepared ourselves” So we relaxed and relented towards our preparing, feeling that almost everything was in place and the rest would be taken care of within few hours. Our flight was timed 3:20pm and we were informed to arrivere by 2pm. Waking up this morning, after my early prayer, I rushed out for an activity, and my wife was also busy with one thing and the other. Around 9am, I felt like, “Wow, the day is still young and 2pm still far away.” And also considering that our house is not too far from the Airport, we felt little relaxed. Until when it was around 12noon that I realized many things to still do and still undone. I began to rush, hasten, drove a bit faster, hurrying myself up. “I must not miss my flight, oh no!” Time was running closer and so I began to run faster. We eventually left home about 2:40pm, hoping to still meet the flight. With little stress we got to the Airport’s Departure entrance at 3:15pm but unfortunately they had already checked in and closed. We could not enter. Those who came early were checked in to the plane but we were left behind. Talking with the airline manager, he said we should have come early, but now they have closed and no way for us to board the plane, though they delayed a bit and expected us to come. We carried our baggage’s and went back home. Some neighbors we had bit goodbye when we were going to then airport, saw us coming back. What happened? We replied, We missed our flight There are lessons to learn from this incidence. Do you know that the same thing is applicable to many in their spiritual living? - You have been saved for a long time, you are aware of the coming of Jesus Christ and well preparing for it, along the way, you feel relaxed because it seems you are over preparing or you are taking things too serious. If you relent or relax, you are at the danger of missing the rapture. It is not how long you have been called into salvation or busy in the service of God, but it is how you eventually ENTER into the kingdom. - It is not how close you are to the kingdom of Heaven that matters, but how you eventually enter. Many will be disqualified at the gate of heaven. Knowledge and anointing in our spiritual lives are not as important as living daily to please God and prepare for His coming. - No matter how close you are to the things of God, what matter most is you having your name in the Book of life. Are you familiar with God’s things or you are faithful to God? - Delaying your salvation is more dangerous than any danger. - It is better to get earlier than get late, it is better to over prepare than to under prepared and later be disqualified. Nothing will ever be as painful as getting to the beautiful gate of heaven and never enter, how terrible! - Do all you can now never to miss the last flight of the saints- RAPTURE. You can miss any flight at the airport and re-book, I came back home today with my wife from the airport after we missed our flight, talking and laughing over it. We can book for another flight later. But there is a flight with no re-booking, no second chance, we can’t afford to miss, and that is the flight of the rapture – the catching away of the repented and prepared children of God. Those who miss the flight of the rapture will be left with the blight of Satan and Anti- Christ. We must be prepared and prayerful never to miss this great and glorious FLIGHT OF THE RAPTURE which can take place any moment now. If you have not been genuinely saved, do not delay further. If you have backslidden as a Christian, you must take and trace your way back NOW! If you are serving God, do not relax or relent, it is dangerous here. Matthew 25:11- 13, “Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ But he answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ “Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.
