Are You Ready?
Why am I asking you, “Are You Ready?” because… there is something we need to be getting ready for. If you’re a Christian, you probably already know what I am talking about. We have a wedding to get to and we should be getting ourselves ready for it!
Good things in store
Isaiah 43:18-19 says, “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring for the; shall you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.”
God says, I will show you the way, follow me and walk the path I lay out for you. In 1 Cor 2:9 it says, “Eye has not seen, nor ear heard, nor have entered into the heart of man the things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
There we can see that God has good things in store for His people, but those good things are for His people. There is an open door of opportunity for us to be called “His”. This door is closing. Every day we get closer and closer to it being shut. Are you Ready for that?
The Bible says, in Matthew 25:10 “the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with Him to the wedding; and the door was shut… “Afterward [they] came saying, ‘Lord, Lord, open to us!’ But He answered and said, ‘Assuredly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ “Watch therefore for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming.” Revelation 22:12-13 says, “And behold I am coming quickly, and my reward is with me, to give to everyone according to his work. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.”
Are you ready for the good things in store for those who are “His”
The Bible say’s of those who are “His” in Matthew 13:16-17 “Blessed are your eyes for they see, and your ears for they hear; for assuredly, I say to you that many prophets and righteous men desired to see what you see and did not see it, and hear what you hear and did not hear it.” Are you ready, Are you seeing what God is doing in the world today, Are you hearing His cry? If so, What do you see Him doing, What do you hear Him saying?

Let’s get ourselves in order
In Psalms 51:1-2 we find the words of King David when he was corrected by God through the prophet Nathan of his wrong doing. David’s attitude is one we should adopt. When he was corrected, he didn’t get offended instead he simply prayed to His Father in Heaven: “Have mercy upon Me, O God, According to Your lovingkindness; According to the multitude of Your tender mercies, Blot out my transgressions. Wash me thoroughly from my iniquity, and cleanse me from my sin.” David realized His mistake and asked for forgiveness. Today if you have found yourself in a situation where God is bringing correction into your life, please re-read the words David spoke. Make it personal, between you and God.
The Bible says in James 4:7-9 “Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you. Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. In that scripture it shows us actions we can take to draw near to God. 1- We should Resist the Devil. 2 Draw near to God. 3 Cleanse our hands. (stop doing wrong), 4 Purify our hearts. (set your heart on Jesus only-not Jesus and worldly pleasures… we can’t be double minded.. “If God is God -serve Him)
God is here to help you! Are you ready for help?
Isaiah 40:28-31 says, “Have you not known? Have you not heard? The everlasting God, the Lord, the creator of the ends of the earth, neither faints nor is weary. His understanding is unsearchable. He gives power to the weak, and to those who have no might He increases strength. Even the youths shall faint and be weary, and the young men shall utterly fall, but those who wait on the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.
Today, remember the Lord. Remember His goodness, Remember His lovingkindness. He is with you, for you and loves you, He is calling His people to come to Him, to get ready and He is asking His bride to prepare for the wedding. We must clean ourselves up and make ourselves ready for Him. For the day is coming, like a thief in the night, when it will be too late, don’t let that day come upon you, be ready, stay ready.
Are you Ready? The King is coming soon!
Revelation 21:1-8 “Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, nor sorrow nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”
Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.” And He said to me, “it is done! I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.”
