Watch

Good evening and praise the Lord. Sorry I did not get anything posted this morning. I was reading the thirteenth chapter of Mark and the Holy spirit just opened my euyes to this Word I want to share with you. If youread the thirteenth chapter you will find Jesus talking about the end times. We are told toward the end of this teaching to do something very powerful. We are told to watch and pray. Also in this teaching of Jesus He reveals to us the revelation of the churchs duty on the earth. in verse 34 He says the Son of man is like a man taking a far journey, the Son of man is Jesus he was refering to his returning to the Father. He says the man left his house,could it be the house Jesus was refering to was the church, look at the next part He says he gave authority to his servents. We are the servents of the Lord I believe he was giving us the WORD to go forth in His name and do the work he did when he was here on the earth. You know Jesus in Luke 10:19 says to the church " Behold I give unto you power to tread upon serpents and scorpions,and over all the power of the enemy:and nothing shall by any means hurt you. We are to be people of prayer and to stay in communication with the Father. WE do this by becoming students of the WORD. He futher says in verse thirteen and to every mman his work, each one of us are to do the work he commiissioned the church to do.See Mathew 28:18-20 and Mark 16:15-20. You and I dont know when Jesus is comming back but we are to be gaurding are souls and staying alert as tho He was comming tomorrow. I love the amplified translation of verse 34" It is like a man[already]going on a journey: when he leaves home,he puts his servents in charge, each with his particular task, and he gives oders to the doorkeeper to be consatantly alert and on watch. I see a twofold revelation here 1. The doorkeeper could be the Pastor of the church who should be on cosatant watch for the spiritual welfare of the flock he serves and teach the deep truths of God. 2. WE are the door keepers of our hearts and we need to be on gaurd and protect our heart from all evil by building our selves up in the most Holy faith. This comes by commiting to the word of God. We must be come one with the word. I would like to challenge us all to read the rest of the verses from 34-37. And just meditate in them and see what the Holy Spirit reveals to you. Be Blessed in The Lord: From Pastor Ken.
