The Call to "BE PREPARED!" - January 2024
Matthew Chapter 25 v 1-4 reads
1 Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins, which took their lamps, and went forth to meet the bridegroom. 2 And five of them were wise, and five were foolish. 3 They that were foolish took their lamps, and took no oil with them: 4 But the wise took oil in their vessels with their lamps.
Before you read any thing else,
Before you see any thing else today,
Know that time is arriving at a junction that will call you to have ALREADY MADE a decision about Whom you Serve, God or self or even the devil himself.
Did you know,
Half the Church IS NOT READY!
Half the population of the planet IS NOT READY!
If you do belong to our LORD JESUS, Yeshua our Messiah, who came once and for all to settle the penalty for sin, that we might not die but rather dwell forever in the Kingdom of our God and bypass death, then you have already Repented, and your life is His, and no longer your own, and you are one of the ten who is Prepared.
If you have not heard about the Oil of God, the essence of His Spirit, and the Lamp that lights our path and guides our feet, Psalm 119:105 the illumination being available to us for a time. And importantly, the LORD Himself, He is returning for His Bride, at the appointed time only the Father knows. As is Jewish custom, the Bride (body of Christ) awaits the coming of the Groom, and when she sees Him coming from a distance, she rushes to prepare for Him to take her back to His Father's House, and to celebrate at the Wedding Feast.
Just five of the ten virgins have their lamps prepared, they are awaiting our LORD the Bridegroom of the Bride. The other five know Him full well also, but are negligent, caught up in the world and not to obedience in Christ.
This is a call to be READY, for time is now. Scripture to study: Matthew 24, Daniel 7, 9, 11, 12 (Daniel's 70 weeks Prophetic video link below)
