Are you ready? Have you taken care of your soul so that at
any given moment you would be ready to stand before God in judgment? Have you opened up your heart to the Lord and
invited Him to come in? Are you careful
how you live? Or, is there a sense of
uncertainty about it all and you are afraid what it would be like to face God
if you were to do it today?
It is very important
that we ask ourselves these questions because we don’t know when it will be our
turn to face God. No one knows if he
will live beyond the moment. No one can
be assured he will live a certain number of days. No one knows for sure when the Lord will
return. The way things are looking, I believe the Lord is coming very
soon.
In order to know for
sure that you are ready to stand before God, you must live in readiness
today. You must confess any sin in your
heart that you have been letting lie there.
You must seek the Lord out in His Word and in your prayer closet. You must be involved in Christian fellowship
for the nurturing of your soul. You must
be using your time and energy to serve the Lord and not yourself. You must live compassionately amongst men and
strive to help others know Him too.
You must stand guard
over your soul and resist the lures of temptation. You must take responsibility for your mind
and heart and fill them with godly and not ungodly things. The more you do these things, the readier you
will be for the Lord to come for you.
You can look for that day with confidence or fear. Are you ready?
