Are You Prepared?
“And behold, I am coming; and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work”
Revelation 22:12

Ponder This
I believe we’re living in the days of the coming of our Lord. We ought to be living as though Jesus died yesterday, rose this morning, and is coming back tonight.
No one can set a date, but I’m kind of like that old farmer who woke up in the middle of the night and heard the grandfather clock sounding the hour. Bong-1 o’clock; bong-2; bong-3; bong-4. On it went. Bong-10; bong-11; bong-12; bong-13; bong-14. That frightened him. He turned over, shook his wife, and said, “Old woman, wake up.” She said, “Why? What time is it?” He said, “I don’t know, but it’s later than it’s ever been before.”
Practice This
I believe it’s late in the age. You and I need to be prepared for the coming of our dear Lord.
FOR YOUR GIFT TO THE MINISTRY
Front Porch Moments by Gayle Foster
WITH KEY INSIGHTS FROM HER FATHER, ADRIAN ROGERS
I try to unplug each morning with Jesus with just my rocking chair, my Bible, and a pen.
Having a secret place is very important because I know that Jesus is always there waiting for me. I know where I can find Him! His presence is everywhere, but there are places where it is so thick you can cut it with a knife. You may not even have a front porch, but there is a secret place for you as well. God’s invitations are for anyone who will respond. There is no more important request than the one found in Psalm 27:8: “My heart has heard You say, ‘Come and talk with Me.’ And my heart responds, ‘Lord, I am coming.’”
