Preparing For The Future!

As Christians, we all need to draw ever closer to The One who has saved us. We need anew awakening to what is The Infilling of The Holy Ghost. A rivival needs to take place in our heart, if that longing is not there, then pray God He will send it.We need to die daily to our flesh and the mind that has fallen from grace. We need to become worshipers!
In these last days we do not know what will be required of us and our reaction to the evil that will surely come. But we can be prepared by The Holy Ghost, if we listen To Him and do exactly as He says. If The Lord tarries for a time we will need to be mature Christians, who when struck on the cheek can turn the other. We need to have the Sermon on The Mount engraved on our hearts and minds.
This morning I was reading Matthew 25, the story about the ten virgins. It became very clear to me the importance of The Oil. Maybe you remember the story where five had oil and five did not, and The Bride Groom came and took those five that had oil and left the five who did not. The five left said to The Lord open to us, but His reply was," Verily I say unto you, I know you not. Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein The Son of man cometh."
The word foolish here , literally means blockhead, dull ,stupid and heedless. I am sure we all could name people in our families and among friends that fit that description.
So the moral of that story is not to be foolish as to go about life without The Holy Ghost.
