WATCH: Be watchful and ready! Mark 13:36

“But about that day or hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father. Be on guard! Be alert! You do not know when that time will come. It’s like a man going away: He leaves his house and puts his servants in charge, each with their assigned task, and tells the one at the door to keep watch. “Therefore keep watch because you do not know when the owner of the house will come back—whether in the evening, or at midnight, or when the rooster crows, or at dawn. If he comes suddenly, do not let him find you sleeping. What I say to you, I say to everyone: ‘Watch!’” Mark 13:32-36

Living Truth
  • He told them, “My soul is crushed with grief to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with Me.” He went on a little farther and bowed with His face to the ground, praying, “My Father! If it is possible, let this cup of suffering be taken away from Me. Yet I want your will to be done, not mine.” Then he returned to the disciples and found them asleep. He said to Peter, “Couldn’t you watch with me even one hour?" Matthew 26:38-40
  • "But you must not forget this one thing, dear friends: A day is like a thousand years to the Lord, and a thousand years is like a day. The Lord isn’t really being slow about His promise, as some people think. No, He is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to perish, but wants everyone to repent." 2 Peter 3:8-9
Prayer & Praise
Whether you come today, this week, this month, in 2025, or in a thousand years, Lord Jesus, I want to be watchful and prepared for Your return. Please teach me, Holy Spirit, to watch and pray over my home, family, and life so I remain faithful in doing God's will and not become negligent. Please guide someone across my path today who is spiritually asleep, perishing in sin, and unprepared for Christ's return. Use my care to open their ears to hear and their heart to believe the good news about the coming of Christ for those who love Him. Heavenly Father, I pray for their awakening and salvation in Jesus' mighty name
