DAILY BREAD OF LIFE

(KJV.)  MATTHEW 25:10-13

(10)  And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came;  and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage:  and the door was shut.
(11)  Afterward came also the other virgins,  saying,  Lord, Lord, open to us.
(12)  But he answered and said,  Verily I say unto you,  I know you not.
(13)  Watch therefore,  for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.


WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT:

Brethren, the day we receive Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior, the angels rejoice in heaven for a winning soul;  however, down on this earth, our faith will be challenged by the loser, our adversary the devil:  he will use every evil devise to fight the battle to try to win us back again unto himself and unto destruction, when we receive Jesus Christ, as our Lord and Savior, the journey of faith begins right there at the altar calls;  therefore, our actions and behaviors going forward should portray the new men and women in Christ Jesus:  (a)  we need to build up a relationship with him through daily devotions;  (b)  we need to forgive others and embrace them as brothers and sisters;  (c)  we need to love and care for others as ourselves;  these godly attributes fuels up our lamps for the Second Coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ;  for, no knows the actual day or time when the trumpet shall sound for his glorious appearance, may we have enough oil in our lamps for the rapture on that faithful day.

Brethren,  our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, will give us a second and third chances to amend our ungodly ways unto righteousness;  he is at the doors of our hearts knocking everyday, and at all times, through people we talk to, friends and family, teachers and prophets, pastors and preachers, etc.... can we hear his voice now among the heathens?;  whether we like is or not, his voice is being heard now 24/7, on televisions sets and radio stations all over the world, and in some remote places of the world, now knows who he is, and of his Second Coming;  but, the question is are we ready for his Second Coming?    (i)  some might say, we know who he is but we cannot surrender to him now, maybe later;  (ii)  others might know him and accept him with nonchalantly attitudes;  (iii)  others might have heard about him, but still waiting to prove him as the only way to eternity;  (iv)  others are already saved, but still confused in the faith;   (v)  while others just do not care of any fate, or the existence of the Almighty, creator of all things;  more or less believe in Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior;  regardless of what group of people we associate with to today;  friends,  Jesus says it is not too late to seek his mercy and make it right with him so our lamps could shine to everlasting life.

Brethren,  today, if the trumpet shall sound in the heavenly places, which of these groups do we belong to?  are we sure of ourselves that we belong to Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior and have enough oil in our lamps;  or do we need to borrow some oil from our friends and neighbors;  friends, we still have time to fuel up our lamps and be ready for the Second Coming of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ;  today might be that day, are we ready?  let us check our lamps and replenish them with fresh oil, and be ready forever and evermore.  Amen and Amen!


QUOTE OF THE DAY:

(KJV.)  Matthew 24:36  But of that day and hour knoweth no man,  no,  not the angels of heaven,  but my Father only.
