If tonight God asks for your soul - Preaching Preaching Outline on Luke 12:19-20 - And I will say to my soul, "Soul, you have in store for many years many goods; rest, eat, drink and be merry. But God said to him, "You fool, this night your soul will be asked for. Introduction to Luke 12:19-20 Jesus proposed a parable to tell man that there is nothing in this life that can satisfy his soul. Our soul is only satisfied in the presence of its creator. Here we see a man who is rich materially but poor spiritually. It's important to say that there's nothing wrong with possessing goods and wealth. So why does Jesus call this man mad? His madness lay in the fact that he anchored himself to his riches, thinking he was safe. Development In his pride and presumption he says: "Soul, you have many goods in store for many years; rest, eat, drink and be merry...". First: God has a plan not for many years, but for eternal life. Secondly: the soul cannot rest in possessions, it only rests in God. "But God said to him, 'You fool, this night your soul will be asked for, and what you have prepared for whom will it be? The question: who will it be for? Who refers to a person. God is asking you who you are preparing your soul. What does that mean? The soul can have two destinies: eternal rest (for the Lord) and eternal torment (for the adversary). It is a great mistake to think that everyone will go to the same place. Goods and riches can solve many problems, but they can't save you, nor can they bring you any rest or nourishment. Man's folly is in not preparing his soul to meet its creator. In this parable we see man bound to this earth by economic power. But from the Bible we know that there are five powers that bind man to this earth: economic, political, social, cultural and religious. Any one of the five powers (ox joints) that bind man to this land, leading him to refuse the Lord's invitation, makes man "mad" in God's eyes. What is God's concern in this? In the book of Revelation we see a church that lived based on riches instead of faith. She says: "As you say: I am rich, and have become wealthy, and have need of nothing: but God saith, And knowest not that thou art wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and naked;" (Revelation 3:17) "Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also" (Matthew 6:19-21). "If we hope in Christ only in this life, we are the most miserable of all men" (1 Corinthians 15:19). God confronts the man deluded by this life when he says: "Tonight they will ask for your soul". The night points to the time we are living in: the time of the brief, the time approaching the return of Jesus. Conclusion of Luke 12:19-20 The question God is asking you today is this: If God asks for your soul tonight, where will it go? There are two events that give man the possibility of choosing the destiny of his soul: death and the rapture of the church. When man dies, the destiny of his soul is set, there is no more to be done. The rapture of the church, which will happen in the twinkling of an eye, will also define the destiny of the soul. Today you have the choice to prepare your soul for the destiny you desire. Life or death. Tomorrow may be too late. Today Christ wants to set you free.
