We started the year with a special all-nations programme entitled: ‘What God has determined shall be done.” And through that programme, the Almighty God unveiled to us what He determined to do this year for His people who will keep to His commandment.

In that power packed programme, we were made to understand that those that will live a spirit filled and controlled life, and maintain righteousness, shall be blessed and whatever they desire that are according to God’s will shall be done for them.

But as He has planned well for the righteous, He also has reserved wrath for the unrighteous, the wicked one. Everyone shall be rewarded according to his work. He, who is liberal, shall be dealt with liberally, while he that is righteous shall be rewarded and he, who is wicked, shall reap according to his deeds.

Gal.6: 7 says, “Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.”

Are you a wicked man or woman, and have not bothered to repent? Do not be deceived by God’s delay in executing His judgment; rather you should know that His longsuffering and tolerant is to give you time to repent. God has not forgotten to reward you accordingly. In fact, He has determined to reward you this year according to your deed. This very year, if you are a wicked person, it shall not be well with you. As you have chosen evil above good, your reward shall be in proportion to your work. God has purposed your judgment this year and you shall not escape, for what He determined shall be done.

Ecc. 8: 12 -13 says, “Though a sinner do evil an hundred times, and his days be prolonged, yet surely I know that it shall be well with them that fear God, which fear before him: 13 But it shall not be well with the wicked, neither shall he prolong his days, which are as a shadow; because he feareth not before God.”

Through the years, the wicked may have presumed that the long arm of the Lord cannot reach them, but they goof. That the judgment of God is not speedily executed on their evil works, does not grant them the leverage to continue their transgressions. If the wicked refuses to repent now that grace abounds, then he will regret forever in hell fire. The Almighty God has determined to prove to him this year that He is the God of justice. God has said, “Upon the wicked he shall rain snares, fire and brimstone, and a horrible tempest: this shall be the portion of their cup” (Psalm 11: 6).

Except the wicked repents, God shall rain snares upon him this year. Snares to hold him captive for torment, then followed by fire and brimstone, and he cannot escape. These shall be rained upon him when he least thinks of it, even in the midst of his jolliness. This shall be his case this year except he repents. As the Lord visits him, then shall the question be answered why God has given him long life and wealth, which he misused for wickedness. Then shall he be called to suffer for all his wicked deeds and at that instance, all the people that were desirous of being like him shall hide their faces in shame.

So it was in the days of Lazarus and the king. When the king came face to face with the reality of the consequences of his wickedness, he cried and asked for mercy. “But Abraham said, Son, remember that thou in thy lifetime receivedst thy good things, and likewise Lazarus evil things: but now he is comforted, and thou art tormented” (Lk 16: 25).

After the judgment came the condemnation of the king, as was determined by God. The wicked king did as it pleased him, but now he is being tormented.

People should understand that the allurement of Satanic lifestyle shall always attract the worst punishments in their next life, for God is determined to punish that wickedness- anger, adultery, fornication, murder, uncleanness, abortion, the pride of life, robbery, and all kinds of wickedness.

So, let the wicked repent now before God’s determination is executed.
