He is telling us in the above scripture that we should be always ready, because He could come at any time – at an hour that we do not expect.

This is God’s timing, because He knows the best and perfect time for Jesus to return, so therefore we have to be prepared, be ready and stay ready.

Because in such an hour that we do not expect, Jesus will return.

Prayer (for you)

Heavenly Father,

Holy, righteous, merciful, compassionate and just You are.

So loving, kind, good and gracious to us.

Thank You for Your amazing grace that saves to the uttermost all those who come to You seeking to be saved from sin, evil and the wicked one – the arch- enemy of our soul.

How wonderful to know that Jesus will return and this time not as a suffering Saviour, but as King of kings in all His majesty, splendour and glory to receive those of us, who have accepted Him as our Saviour and Lord.

O Lord Jesus, I want to be among the redeemed of the earth, I want to be there, I want to live in Heavenly places.

I look forward to that time when You will make all things new – there will be a new Heaven and earth, and there will be no more suffering, pain, sickness, sadness, disease or death, no more sin, evil and wickedness.

For the former things would have passed away, and You will make everything new.

O Lord, I believe in You, my faith, trust and hope is in You.

How great to be part of the family of God, washed in the fountain and cleansed by the precious blood of Jesus, my Saviour.

O Lord Jesus, please help me to endure, be faithful in my Christian journey, and be ready to meet You and stay ready.

Lord, please forgive me and cleanse me and make me wholly Thine.

Come into my heart, Lord Jesus, come in today and come in to stay.

I love and adore You, glorify and exalt You.

In Your Holy name, Lord Jesus. Amen.
