THEME: CAUGHT UNAWARES
MEMORISE:
For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so cometh as a thief in the night. 1 Thessalonians 5:2
READ: Luke 21:34-36
34. And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.
35. For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.
36. Watch ye, therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.
MESSAGE:
The second coming of Christ is a message that is rarely preached these days. Whether it is preached or not, my child, know that the second coming of Christ is imminent and a lot of persons will be caught unawares. There are many signs that He is coming very soon. If you read Matthew 24:3-10, you will discover that all the signs of the end time stated in there have been manifested. Nations rise against nations, people are boastful, there are a lot of natural disasters such as tsunamis, earthquakes, fire outbreaks et cetera in the world today. Do not be caught unawares. For you not to be caught off-guard, plan your journey to heaven by living each day as if Jesus would come in the next minute. Don't live carelessly; don't talk carelessly, rather, be conscious that the rapture can occur at any time. Jesus told us that His coming will be like a thief in the night. Get ready.
KEY POINT:
Be prepared always
