From Time To Eternity
You Must Be Prepared
“So always be ready. You don’t know the day your Lord will come. Remember this: If the owner of the house knew what time a thief was coming, then the owner would be ready for him. The owner would watch and not let the thief enter his house. So you also must be ready. The Son of Man will come at a time you don’t expect him.
“Who is the wise and trusted servant? The master trusts one servant to give the other servants their food at the right time. When the master comes and finds the servant doing his work, the servant will be very happy. I tell you the truth. The master will choose that servant to take care of everything the master owns. But what will happen if the servant is evil and thinks his master will not come back soon? Then that servant will begin to beat the other servants. He will feast and get drunk with others like him. And the master will come when the servant is not ready and is not expecting him. Then the master will punish that servant. He will send him away to be among the hypocrites. There people will cry and grind their teeth with pain (Matt 24: 42-51).
Greeting grace and peace to you my friends in the name of God our Father, The Son and The Holy Spirit. Thank you, Lord, for allowing me to be among your chosen people. We continually need to be reassured that God loves us and that He is always with us. This knowledge gives us confidence in the ability to do whatever work God has set before us. This knowledge gives us the courage to live and not worry about things we can’t control because we know God is in control. We should not fool ourselves to think that God favors us because of something we have done to earn such a standing before Him. We are totally unworthy to receive anything from God under our own strength and ability. We cannot earn our way into God’s Favor. It is completely by His Grace, as a gift of His love, Amen! God continues to alert His people as to our need to be prepared for potential calamity. Lord thank you for this opportunity to share with your people your word concerning being prepared, In Jesus name Amen.
Brothers and Sisters God has always alerted His people for whatever is about to take place, that can will cause them problems because they are not prepared. Once God has alerted us and we live as if He didn’t alert us what are we to say? Is that not foolishness? The disciples Asked Jesus When we the Son of man return? Jesus told them, no one knows Not the Son of Man, Not the angels in heaven, only The Father knows. Jesus used the example of what happened during the time of Noah. For 120 years He preached that it was going to rain. Even though the people heard the warning they lived their lives as though it was not going to happen. They did not believe it was going to rain because it had never rained before. They ignored the warning, they did not believe God. When we see the dark clouds covering the sky and the wind changes its course we know that a storm is approaching. When a drought comes we know to store enough food to last until harvest. God has taught us how to read nature so that we can be safe, but if we don’t be attentive what good will it do us? When the rain came the people perished because they did not take heed of the warning God made available to them. The Lord is going to return the same way. There will be no prior, warning. He will just come. When You look up He will be there. We will pass from time to eternity. Amen!
We are God’s people, He has given us the responsibility of taking the gospel to the unsaved. We are servants that have been chosen to feed the others. Just because the Lord has not come yet we are not to act as though He is not coming. We are not to take advantage of and mistreat people because Jesus Has not returned yet. He is going to return, and if He finds you working you are going to be very happy. The world will do everything it can to distract you. The world will lie to you, the world will deceive you. The world will say Jesus is here or Jesus is there. Don’t believe it. When the Master of the house comes, He will not be hidden, everyone will see Him coming in the sky.
All who have not believed in Him at this advent will be left behind, it will be a glorious day, those who are dead in Christ will be raised first and then in a twinkling of the eye we will all be changed, and He will catch us up to be with Him in the Air, so we will all be forever with The Lord. Those who are not saved will experience the tribulation. It will be a time when people will suffer so bad that they want to die, and God won’t let them. This is one reason why it is so important for us to reach out to the unsaved, especially those who we love, those in our families. Unless we tell them, and they believe the gospel they won’t be saved. God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son so that whoever believes in Him will not Perish, but will have everlasting life (John 3:16). If you believe contact me, let me know. If you don’t understand Contact Me let me know, I will help you.
God Bless you.
