Victory

The day is drawing near, but is anyone in a rush, if there was a big clearance sale,  
then you would hear a fuss.
If the sign said concert, baseball, or a football game, people would stand for many 
hours, even stand in the rain.
People might climb high mountains to showcase their fame, spray paint their name on the 
sign Hollywood-just for worldly gains.
People take risk in life, but what do they achieve, if their soul is going to hell for 
all of eternity.

In a basketball game, when the clock counts three, you’re in a race against time; you’re 
in a race for the victory.
Were in a race for our souls, the true meaning of life, God already gave the ultimate 
sacrifice.
He gave us His son...He died for our sins.
He gave us a chance, so that we might be able to WIN.

Sometimes we feel, that we took all that we can,
Sometimes we act like we just don't care, but the Lord Jesus took all that He could bear.
He stayed on the cross, after three days he rose.
The ultimate gift was His life...Aren’t we all glad that He didn't think twice?

Take a look at yourself…only two things to choose.
You could be the wise man or you could be the fool.
Take a good look at yourself…what do you see…
Are you on your way to the ultimate victory?
This time take a real good look at yourself…
This time keep it real…
There’s two options left; it’s real simple…
Will it be HEAVEN or hell?
