Text:*  Matthew 24:32.

 *"Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that summer is near.* 

Today, we shall be considering the instruction Jesus Christ gave to his disciples which by implication you are also included.

 *Mark 13:37 says, And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!"* 

*Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. (Matthew 24:44).* 

It is very clear from what Jesus is saying to you that he shall be coming at an hour you do not expect.

Jesus instructed his disciples and not the world to be ready. That is because he shall be coming without any announcement just like a thief in the night.  

 *For you yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord so comes as a thief in the night. For when they say, "Peace and safety!" then sudden destruction comes upon them, as labor pains upon a pregnant woman. And they shall not escape.(1 Thessalonians 5:2&3).* 

The peace this world offers is neither a genuine nor lasting peace. You can imagine that United Nations couldn't bring peace amongst nations. But at some point, towards the very second advent of Jesus, the antichrist will give a kind of Peace to the world. Then the Prince of Peace (Jesus Christ) shall  shatter this spurious peace. He will come like a thief upon the world, and shall Break through their defences and treasuries. He will then take over as the LORD over all. 

Then Revelation 11:15  shall come to pass wherein the seventh angel sounded: ...saying, "The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our Lord and of His Christ, and He shall reign forever and ever!"

Since Jesus will be coming as a thief in the night, it is very obvious that the world shall be caught unaware at his arrival. But for the believers, He expected us to be ready, waiting eagerly for his coming.
*But you, brethren, are not in darkness, so that this Day should overtake you as a thief.(1 Thessalonians 5:4).* 

*Get ready for the coming of Christ! Sit up and abandon your sinful  ways! Wash your robe and get READY! Your groom is on the way- Christ the king is coming soon.* 

 *Bible Reading* 

1 Thessalonians 5:2-8.

 *PRAYER FOCUS* 

Father Lord, I receive the grace and wisdom to be a faithful and wise servant even as I await the second coming of your Son, my Lord Jesus Christ.

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

IT IS WRITTEN AGAIN

Text: Matthew 4:6. He told Jesus, “Since you are the Son of God, throw yourself down, because it is written,   ‘God will put his angels in charge of you,’ and,   ‘With their hands they will hold you up, so that you will never hit your foot against a rock.’ Jesus knocked devil off with "it is written" when he came to him with the first temptation. So, the devil too decided to use "it is written" for Jesus for the second temptation.  Don't be deceived, the devil knows the scriptures too. Second Corinthians 11:14 says,  "Satan himself masquerades as an angel of light." So, it's no surprise when you see Satan's messengers masquerading themselves as Apostle of Christ. 2 Corinthians 11:14.  The word of God is perfect. Yet, many people can twist it to their advantage and ultimately to their disadvantage. A drunk, smoker, fornicator, liar and all sort can justify their sinful lifestyles with a Bible verse. See to it that you do not twist the word of Go...

WHEN GOD IS SILENT(2)

Text: Matthew 4:1  *Then Jesus was led up by the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted by the devil.*  We saw yesterday that God was not pleased with many israelites that left Egypt for the promised land  (Corinthians 10:5).  A good percentage of the Israelites were overthrown in the wilderness.   Wilderness experience is not what any child of God desires, but it is an experience God sends or allows his children go through. In Deuteronomy 8:2, God says that He *LED* the Isrealites through the wilderness for forty years to humble them, to prove them, and to know what was in their heart whether they would keep his commandments or not.  Our Lord Jesus Christ was also *LED* into the wilderness by the Spirit of the Lord to be tempted by the devil. You will  notice there is a similar feature of the number *40(forty)* between these two wilderness experiences. That is, that of the Israelites and our Lord Jesus Christ. The Israelites spent 40years, Jesu...
