Do your best and then sleep in peace. God is Awake.
Do not forget to watch and pray…
And being asked by the Pharisees, when the kingdom of God cometh, he answered them and said, The kingdom of God cometh not with observation: neither shall they say, Lo, here! or, There! for lo, the kingdom of God is within you...Luke 17:20-21. But of that day or that hour knows no one, not even the angels in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. It is as when a man, sojourning in another country, having left his house, and given authority to his servants, to each one his work, commanded also the porter to watch. Watch therefore: for ye know not when the lord of the house cometh, whether at even, or at midnight, or at cockcrowing, or in the morning; lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch...Mark 13:32-37. pray without ceasing; in everything give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus to you-ward...1 Thessalonians 5:17-18.
Jesus taught to watch and pray…what are we watching for His coming and the things we can do to facilitate His coming by making ourselves ready and prepared for the end to come. When you read John’s Revelation which church do you fall into? Jesus said the kingdom is given to us and we are to do our jobs or fulfill our plan and purpose. Like a business man that gives authority to those He left in charge…to fulfill their purpose. We cannot lose our purpose of preserving the faithful and making disciples or we will be found wanting like the virgins with no oil. Do you expect Jesus final coming to be in your life or are you like those who scoff saying He has already came?
Jesus died on the cross and was raised from the dead so we could be forgiven and choose right over wrong. You know there is really only one repentance…once you change and repent you will always be living out this change in life deeds. Jesus wants us to be righteous and not sinful but will teach and guide us to be righteous as we continue in becoming like Him. Do you want rest for your soul…then listen to what Jesus said… Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light...Matthew 11:28-30. Jesus will come into your life with the truth but our parts is to practice the truth He reveals to us. Do you agree to read the New Testament of Christ in order to learn Jesus teachings revealed to us through the Apostles and the Holy Spirit who spoke through chosen men…yes or no? If you do you find rest for a weary soul.
Prayer
Father please meet our soul’s deepest needs and heal our soul’s deepest wounds…please grant us repentance from sin and satan we renounce any other please send Jesus, in Jesus of Nazareth’s name amen.
