Staying Ready
A friend of mine made the comment the other day, "I don't get ready, I stay ready." I began to think about what he said and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Are most Christians ready to share their faith at all times? Are most Christians prepared to meet the Lord and anytime? I think a lot of Christians spend much of their life un-prepared and un-ready. When Paul was writing to Timothy a young Pastor he said, "Preach the word! Be ready in season and out of season" 2 Timothy 4:2 This idea of being ready speaks of someone coming upon you suddenly and being prepared for their arrival. It also speaks of standing. A person decides the outcome of the day in the morning. We have to be in a ready stance because we never know what the day will hold. The enemy Satan roams around like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. He is always looking for a time when our guard is down. This is why we have to be ready. God help us to be Christians who stay ready not get ready.

that is so true i seriously think that no ones is really ready for him to return just yet I think everybody figures that they still have time when in reality we dont. I rescently heard that the devil dosen't bother you when your one the wrong path but when you are (ALMOST THERE) & you can see your dreams,visions & destiny right in front of you ,you can ALOMST touch it thats when he comes in & tries to put a path of distruction & an chaos in you life to were you down. And thats when your faith really takes a beating, thank GOD for people that he has put in your life that pray for you and the strength that he gives us so that we WILL over come every lie,trap & attack that the devil throws our way. BE STRONG IN THE LORD I SAY & an YOU BLESSINGS WILL BE WELL WORTH IT ALL!
stay strong veronica, pb...
