PREPARE YOUR HEART WITH THE WORD
For skillful and godly Wisdom shall enter into your heart, and knowledge shall be pleasant to you. Discretion shall watch over you, understanding shall keep you (Proverbs 2:10-11 AMPC).
If you’d pay attention to what’s written in the Scriptures about the last days, and relate it to current happenings in the world, you’ll surely realize that the Lord is getting ready, preparing the Church for His coming. Your responsibility is to prepare your heart through the Word; live your life for Him daily.
Nothing can prepare you for the coming of the Lord like the Scriptures. 2 Timothy 3:15 tells us, “And that from a child thou hast known the holy scriptures, which are able to make thee wise unto salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus.” Notice our underlined portion; the wisdom of God is what carries you all the way through to the end of salvation in the presence of the Lord.
Jesus emphasized the importance of the Scriptures when He said, “…man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God” (Luke 4:4).
Search the Scriptures. Study and build your life on God’s truth. His Word cultures you to have Kingdom consciousness, with the goal and desire to please Him always and in all things. The Word cleanses and keeps you in the state of readiness to meet the Lord.
CONFESSION: Through the Word, and power of the Holy Spirit, I’m walking worthy of the Lord, pleasing Him in all things as I joyfully anticipate His soon return. My life and passions are about His Kingdom and its expansion, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
