45 Who then is the faithful and wise servant, whom his master has set over his household, to give them their food at the proper time? 46 Blessed is that servant whom his master will find so doing when he comes. 47 Truly, I say to you, he will set him over all his possessions. 48 But if that wicked servant says to himself, ‘My master is delayed,’ 49 and begins to beat his fellow servants and eats and drinks with drunkards, 50 the master of that servant will come on a day when he does not expect him and at an hour he does not know 51 and will cut him in pieces and put him with the hypocrites. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth. ~ Matthew 24:45-51
“Stay Awake! Keep watch!” This should become the anthem cry of today’s Church. But instead, today’s Church has been lulled to sleep by sweet, savory words tickling our ears. We’ve been pacified by smooth-talking politicians and their indirect bribes.
Today’s Church has fallen asleep on their watch. We’ve become like sleeping dogs that don’t bark.
Jesus said, blessed is the servant whom He finds doing what He has commanded him to do. That servant will be well rewarded. But “woe” be on the servant that is found asleep and is not doing what the master has commanded.
We all have a purpose to fulfill, but the problem is the enemy knows and understands our purpose better than we do. So he sets up the perfect blockers for us so that we’ll be distracted and lulled asleep before we even fully comprehend our God-given call for our lives. Therefore, stay awake and watch. Be alert, for the enemy is on the prowl.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Stay Awake And Watch.
