On Call 24/7

Many hardships and perplexing circumstances confront the righteous, But the Lord rescues him from them all. (Psalm 34:19, AMP)

Aboard British Airways flight, at about 35000 feet, there was nothing really to do so as the gentleman who sat next to me. We decided to share jokes among other things for about two hours. He shared one which got me off my seat which I believe there are some lessons to learn from as God’s children.

The Joke

A Christian and unbeliever (bearded man) were travelling by air. It was six hours journey so the Christian took that opportunity to share the Gospel with this unbeliever. He shared a message on how Jesus is protecting God’s children 24/7.The unbeliever didn’t believe the message so he asked if the Christian could keep his mouth shut.

After about 45 minutes, the pilot announced that he had lost control of the plane and that it could crash any moment. Upon hearing the pilot, the Christian cried out loud; “JESUS SAVE ME!” Immediately, he disappeared from the plane.

Fascinated by what he has heard and seen, the unbeliever opened his mouth in attempt to repeat what he heard but “JESUS SHAVE ME!” came out. Immediately, his beard disappeared. The plane crashed and he died.”

Lesson:

Indeed, he who watches over Israel never slumbers or sleeps. (Psalm 121:4, NLT)
“The name of the Lord is a strong tower; The righteous runs to it and is safe and set on high [far above evil].” (Proverbs 18:10, AMP)
Jesus protects you 24/7.
“For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.” (Romans 10:13, KJV)
In times of trouble call on Jesus and He will save you.
