TOO MANY WORDS...

There always exists the possibility that we can continue multiplying words upon words to no end. We hear sermon after sermon, week in and week out. We read books upon books, we go to conference after conference to gain knowledge. What we have at the end of the day is people full of knowledge. It behoves us to ask, what have we done with all the things we have heard, read and learnt???

We need to stop, put a halt on this behaviour and weigh up what we have learnt and what it is we are actually walking in. Have we attended to the first things? Are we preparing ourselves for the days that lie ahead?. Are we watching, waiting, being in a state of readiness? There are certain things that God wants to work out, set in order before He takes us onto the next stage. We need to be careful that we do not find ourselves running ahead, thus, find ourselves being deluded by our enemy. It has been said, "we are not yet ready for the second coming of the Lord, because we have not yet fully appropriated the meaning of His first coming".

The Lord Jesus cannot return now because we are not yet ready for Him. He comes for a bride that has made herself ready and is prepared for Him. Consider these things and may the grace of God be with you all.
