TOPIC: The Ultimate Separation (DCLM Daily Manna 7 March 2024)
KEY VERSE: “And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal” (Matthew 25:46).
TEXT: Matthew 25:31-46 (KJV)
31 When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:
32 And before him shall be gathered all nations: and he shall separate them one from another, as a shepherd divideth his sheep from the goats:
33 He shall set the sheep on his right hand, but the goats on the left.
34 Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the Kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world:
35 For I was hungered, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in:
36 Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.
37 Then the righteous shall answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee hungry, and fed thee? Or thirsty, and gave thee drink?
38 When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee?
39 Or when saw we thee sick or in prison, and came unto thee?
40 And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you since ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.
41 Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels:
42 For I was hungered, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink:
43 I was a stranger, and ye took me not in naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.
44 Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungered, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?
45 Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, since ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me.
46 And these shall go away into everlasting punishment: but the righteous into life eternal.
DCLM Daily Manna For Today MESSAGE:
It was the interment event of a beloved godly mother. The crowd wore gloomy looks as they came to pay their last respect to the great woman. The preacher gave his emotion-laden homily to extol the virtues and work of the departed Christian woman. While concluding the appeal, he fired two remarks targeted at the children. To those born again among them, the preacher said their Mum bade them “Good Night.” To those who were not born again, he said their Mum bade them “Goodbye.” Those two contrastive parting remarks illustrate the final separation and allude to two destinations that will ultimately play out at the end of life.

In today’s text, Christ affirms the existence of two separate destinations and what will determine where everyone will spend eternity. While the King (God) will welcome those on the right hand (the believers in Christ), and they will be ushered into eternal bliss in heaven, those on the left hand (the unbelievers) will have their abode in hell, where they will suffer forever. According to the Lord, the life we live here, the love we show others, and our decision to remain sheep in His fold will determine what side we will go to at the end of life.
Regardless of man’s arguments and opposition to the reality of heaven and hell and the final separation, none of these can invalidate the fulfillment of what Christ said would happen.
As pilgrims, we must then be wise in preparing for our eternal home. The only condition that guarantees access to heaven is to switch to the right side now by becoming sheep in the Kingdom through repentance from all sins, faith in Christ, and acceptance of His salvation.
THOUGHT FOR THE DAY
Separation from sin here prevents separation from God hereafter.
