"It Gets To Somehow Last"

"Wickedness is in the midst thereof: deceit and guile depart not from her streets." (Psalms 55:11) Other than the fact that we are here, it would appear that most of the world is going to hell; just try and imagine what it will look like one the church is taken up; it is surely not going to be an easy place to get saved, yet the Bible says that there will be a multitude of people that will. If you truly understand the times, then you probably have packed your bags and are just waiting for that trumpet to be blown; but if you have not yet prepared yourself to go, then maybe you should start thinking about what you are waiting for, because you might just be waiting for proof of His return; and if that is what you are waiting for, then that is what you will see; you won't be taken, therefore you will get to see it happen. Every day I see things that just keep on happening, almost as if God is just dragging it out as long as He can; it's not like He does not care about what is happening here, because He does; besides, all those that are believers, as soon as they are killed, they are in His presence; it's the rest of us that need to keep ourselves ready for His return. If there was one thing that Jesus tried to make clear, it was how much we need to be ready. And it's not because we would not know whether or not it was time, because He told us that we would; but it is because He knew that we would keep putting off getting ready, thinking that He delays His coming. If you think about it, Jesus is waiting also: He is the one who is making intersessions for us, so He does not say the hour, but the Father is the one that chooses when He shall return; it makes perfect sense, because Jesus keeps pleading for us, but sooner or later, the Father makes the call, and the door is shut... "But of that day and that hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels which are in heaven, neither the Son, but the Father. Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is. For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch." (Mark 13:32-37)
