There was a certain rich man who lived in the city of Lagos, This man had many servants, but he was particularly fond of the chief servant who was a Ghanaian and who had been with him for many years. One day, the chief servant went to the market to buy some things for the master. And whom did he meet? He met a person called Death. Death had appeared in the market in bodily form. Death stared at the chief servant who in turn became frightened by the long stare of this stranger. He was so frightened that he abandoned his mission and forgot to buy the goods his master had sent him to buy. When he got back home his master asked him, “Where are the things I sent you to buy?” He told his master about how he had met death who had appeared in a bodily form. The chief servant was truly shaken. The master quickly realized that the chief servant was truly shaken because he had not behaved that way before. The chief servant begged his master saying, “I am so terrified by the way Death stared at me and I want to leave Lagos immediately. I would like to go back to Accra before tonight. I really feel that death wanted to kill me.” The master really loved his servant and so released him to leave immediately to Accra. After the chief servant left, the master decided to go to town himself and there, to his surprise, was Death in bodily form. The master was fearless and approached death, confronting and challenging him, “How dare you stare at my servant that way? Who do you think you are? What do you mean by that?” Death stared silently at the master and then spoke. He said, “I was staring at him because I was surprised to find him in the market this morning seeing I have appointment with him in Accra tonight.” The master was aghast. He knew that there was no way his servant would escape the appointment with death. Dear friend, No one will escape the Day of Judgment. Death and judgment are appointments that you cannot avoid. The Day of Judgment will certainly come to pass for everyone. TODAY is the DAY to repent because you are not condemned yet. Believe and confess Jesus as your Saviour! God will receive you today.
