April 8 (Wednesday) -- Time to Be Ready



The song of a 120 year-old prophet before his death: Deuteronomy 32:28-52

Time to be ready: Luke 12:35-59

They put God to the test: Psalm 78:56-64

Laziness ends in slave labor: Proverbs 12:24


In today’s passage from Luke, Jesus tells us to be ready for His return. It can happen at any time & we don’t want to be caught misbehaving because we think we won’t get caught.

You think this applies only to the church leaders & not to everybody? Peter asked who this teaching applies to (Luke 12:41). Jesus replied with an analogy of a master returning home, finding his servants misbehaving, and beating all of them, including the ones not in charge.

We don’t know when Jesus will return. We don’t know if it’ll be daylight or dark. We don’t know if it’ll be today or 1,000 years from now. But we do know that He’ll come back expecting us to be full of LYLYMI – Living It Like Ya Mean It.
