6 WAYS TO PREPARE FOR THE SOON COMING
OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST
Mark 13:24-37 [24]But in those days, after that
tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,
[25]And the stars of heaven shall
fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken.
[26]And then shall they see the
Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory.
[27]And then shall he send his
angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the
uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.
[28]Now learn a parable of the fig
tree; When her branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that
summer is near:
[29]So ye in like manner, when ye
shall see these things come to pass, know that it is nigh, even at the doors.
[30]Verily I say unto you, that
this generation shall not pass, till all these things be done.
[31]Heaven and earth shall pass
away: but my words shall not pass away.
[32]But of that day and that hour
knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but
the Father.
[33]Take ye heed, watch and pray:
for ye know not when the time is.
[34]For the Son of man is as a man
taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants,
and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.
[35]Watch ye therefore: for ye
know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at
the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
[36]Lest coming suddenly he find
you sleeping.
[37]And what I say unto you I say
unto all, Watch.
1. LIVE IN THE LIGHT BEING THE CHILDREN OF LIGHT AS WE
WAIT FOR CHRIST SOON COMING .
( 1 Thessalonians
5:5-11) [5]Ye are
all the children of light, and the children of the day: we are not of the
night, nor of darkness.
[6]Therefore let us not sleep, as
do others; but let us watch and be sober.
[7]For they that sleep sleep in
the night; and they that be drunken are drunken in the night.
[8]But let us, who are of the day,
be sober, putting on the breastplate of faith and love; and for an helmet, the
hope of salvation.
[9]For God hath not appointed us
to wrath, but to obtain salvation by our Lord Jesus Christ,
[10]Who died for us, that, whether
we wake or sleep, we should live together with him.
[11]Wherefore comfort yourselves
together, and edify one another, even as also ye do.
2. BE DECERNING CHRISTIAN WHAT TIME IS IT NOW THAT
ANYTIME CHRIST WILL COME TODAY OR TOMORROW HE EVEN AT THE DOOR OF OUR HOUSE.
(Matthew 24:45-51) [45]Who then is a faithful and
wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them
meat in due season?
[46]Blessed is that servant, whom
his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
[47]Verily I say unto you, That he
shall make him ruler over all his goods.
[48]But and if that evil servant
shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
[49]And shall begin to smite his
fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
[50]The lord of that servant shall
come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware
of,
[51]And shall cut him asunder, and
appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and
gnashing of teeth.
(Mathew 24:33-36) [33]So likewise ye, when ye shall
see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
[34]Verily I say unto you, This
generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
[35]Heaven and earth shall pass
away, but my words shall not pass away.
[36]But of that day and hour
knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
3. BELIEVED THAT THE PROMISE OF HIS IS SURE AND CERTAIN.
(Mark 13:32-37) [32]But of that day and that hour
knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but
the Father.
[33]Take ye heed, watch and pray:
for ye know not when the time is.
[34]For the Son of man is as a man
taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants,
and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch.
[35]Watch ye therefore: for ye
know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at
the cockcrowing, or in the morning:
[36]Lest coming suddenly he find
you sleeping.
[37]And what I say unto you I say
unto all, Watch.
4. ALWAYS PUT OUR HOPE OF THE PROMISE OF THE COMING OF
THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
(Titus 2:13) Looking for that blessed hope, and
the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;
5. ENCOURAGE ONE ANOTHE OF THE PROMISE OF THE COMING OF
CHRIST FOR THE BELIEVERS.
(I Thessalonians
4:13-18) [13]But I
would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep,
that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
[14]For if we believe that Jesus
died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with
him.
[15]For this we say unto you by
the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the
Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
[16]For the Lord himself shall
descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the
trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
[17]Then we which are alive and
remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in
the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
[18]Wherefore comfort one another
with these words.
6. KEEP ON DOING THE WORK OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST THAT
PUT IN OUR ACCOUNT AND CONTINUE TO BE FAITHFUL.
(Matthew 24:45-49) [45]Who then is a faithful and
wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them
meat in due season?
[46]Blessed is that servant, whom
his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
[47]Verily I say unto you, That he
shall make him ruler over all his goods.
[48]But and if that evil servant
shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
[49]And shall begin to smite his
fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
* God bless you all always *
