Be dressed, ready for service.

“Be dressed, ready for service, and have your lamps shining. Be like servants who are waiting for their master to come home from a wedding party. When he comes and knocks, the servants immediately open the door for him" (Luke 12:35, 36 NCV). Are you ready for the coming of the Lord? Is your heart ready and dressed with faith, love, Christ, and excited to see the Lord? He's coming back and it might be sooner then it seems. We, the body of Christ, must have the oil in our lamps shining and ready for His return. We must be ready to meet the Groom so that the Groom can take His bride home. We must be ready for Him. We are waiting for the Groom to come. We do not know the hour or the day that God will send the Groom to take His church, but we know Scripture says "to be ready" at all times, waiting for the knock on the door. Are we truly all ready for the knock at our door? If He would come back this split second, are we ready? There are many out there among us who are not ready. Their hearts are given over to something of this world rather than to the Groom of the church. We have to continue to pray for them that are spiritually blind. Watchful servants don't have their eyes on the government and waiting for what they're going to do, but their eyes are on the Lord's return. The government has their own agenda, just as God also has His own agenda. (V:40) "So you also must be ready, because the Son of Man will come at a time when you don’t expect him!”. Be watchful. God bless you all.
