ARE YOU READY

“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”

Matthew 24:44 KJV

My Pastor gave me permission to tell you about a Scripture I used in a devotion.  “The Scripture you used this morning in the Devotion is the Scripture my Great-Uncle Morris had just quoted from behind the pulpit in a Primitive Baptist Church in Eloise, FL in 1962 when he dropped dead behind the pulpit.”

One of my pastors while preaching on not waiting to tell people you love and appreciate them said “I was going to call my uncle and tell him how much I loved him and appreciated him because he had raised me but I waited too long.  When I finally called him, I found out that he had died the night before”.

What about you?  Yes, you.  Are you ready to meet Jesus if He should come back while you are reading this devotion?  You may be saved but is your heart right with God?  If there is anything in your heart that hurts God, ask Him to forgive you.  God is faithful and He will forgive you if you ask Him.

Heavenly Father, I ask You to search my heart and if there is anything that hurts You, please let me know so I can repent and ask Your forgiveness.  If there is anyone reading this that has never invited Jesus into their heart, I pray this will be the day they say yes to Him.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
