Topic :Living Expectant.

Memory Verse : Matthew 24:44. So then, you also must always be ready, because the Son of Man will come at an hour when you are not expecting him.

Bible Reading : Matthew 24:45-47 GNB. Key Verse : v45.

“Who, then, is a faithful and wise servant? It is the one that his master has placed in charge of the other servants to give them their food at the proper time. How happy that servant is if his master finds him doing this when he comes home! Indeed, I tell you, the master will put that servant in charge of all his property.

From the beginning of Mathew 24, Jesus began to teach about signs of the end, his second coming and rapture. Matthew gave us one of the most detailed series of events that must take place in preparation for the second coming of Jesus, and the final harvest the earth. He made us know signs that when we see around us here on earth, we should be able to discern that the second coming of Jesus was nearer than ever. He told us how he will come; he made us know by clear words that his second coming will never be a secret event, but one that all eyes shall see from the ends of the earth. ““Soon after the trouble of those days, the sun will grow dark, the moon will no longer shine, the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers in space will be driven from their courses. Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in the sky; and all the peoples of earth will weep as they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.” Matthew 24:29-30.

The people seating under his teaching was very inquisitive within themselves, they wanted Jesus to be more specific about the timing of the second coming of the Master and rapture. He began to illustrate that it will be just like the days of Noah. Those days, normal activities continued unabated till Noah and his family boarded the ark. As many as slighted Noah and the message of escape from God’s wrath and destruction, was taken unawares. “The coming of the Son of Man will be like what happened in the time of Noah. In the days before the flood people ate and drank, men and women married, up to the very day Noah went into the boat; yet they did not realize what was happening until the flood came and swept them all away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes.” Matthew 24:37-39.

We have to note that the time the Lord will take his own, two people will be engaged in an activity when one will be taken and the other left behind. “At that time two men will be working in a field: one will be taken away, the other will be left behind. Two women will be at a mill grinding meal: one will be taken away, the other will be left behind. “Be on your guard, then, because you do not know what day your Lord will come.” Matthew 24:40-42. As we keep getting ready for the coming of the Lord, we have to be careful not to become complacent or carried away by normal affairs of life as to be caught off guard or met unprepared. We have to live to fulfill every assignment he committed to us faithfully in order to qualify for eternal reward at the end. We must be at alert in our spirit. ““Be on your guard, then, because you do not know what day your Lord will come.. If the owner of a house knew the time when the thief would come, you can be sure that he would stay awake and not let the thief break into his house.” Matthew 24:42-43.

Prayer :Thank you Lord Jesus for dying that I might live. From today I pray that you help me to live all my days with the consciousness of your return. Help me by your Spirit to be faithful in every assignment you committed to my care till I see you in victory in Jesus wonderful name….. Amen 🙏🏿.

Yearly Bible Reading : John 12 :37-50.
