Waiting on the Lord

This week we had asked the Pastor at our church to come over and talk with us about something. He said " okay I will come by sometime this week and it's around 12-1pm. So we didn't know what day he was going to come so when Monday comes, at 11am we would clean up our house and make sure our living room was in order.. He didn't come so the next day we did the same thing but he didn't show up. We didn't give up but still we keep on cleaning even the next day. While I was cleaning I look at my house and most of it was clean but my son's bike was in the living room and a few of my baby's toy was on the mat while he was playing with it. IN my head I said " Pastor is going to come today." 12pm past and he still didn't show up then I went to a room and started to pray and read my bible right after I finished praying I heard a knock at the door and I knew it was Pastor. It was a little past 1pm. Me and my husband got to let our hearts out to him and asked him to pray for us. After that we were lifted up. When he left my husband said : Waiting for pastor to come was like waiting  for the Lord to come. We don't know when he will show up but we just keep on cleaning and stuff." I agree with him and God reminded me in Matthew chapter 24; 27-51:
27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:
33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.
34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.
35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.
36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,
39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.
40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.
42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?
46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.
47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.
48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;
50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,
51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.

It reminded me that I don't know when Jesus will come but I should always keep cleaning my house. My Body is the temple of the Holy Spirit so I have to clean myself from all sins so that the Holy Spirit will keep on living in me and using me. I have to keep on doing the Work of God so that when he does come he will find me so doing his works which he has planned for me. I need to be ready in season or out of season. Just as the toys warned me about the things which must happen before the Pastor comes, there are signs also that must happen before Christ comes. Like the signs that was mention in Matthew 24. Likewise we have to get ready. How do we get ready?? Verse 35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.   answered that question. His WORD will never past away. We have to read, understand, Use his words which is the Bible. Not only do we memorize it and leave it we have to act upon it and LIVE IT. God wants you to be ready by Renewing your minds with his Word because John 1:1 said "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God." If we Immersed ourselves with the Word of God, His Spirit will operate within us to do his Works. Believe it Receive it and Now ACT UPON IT> LIVE IT. IN Jesus Name.
