Verse of the Day ~ January 26, 2012

Matthew 24:34,36,42-44~ "Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place. But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only. Watch therefore, for you do not know what hour your Lord is coming. But know this, that is the master of the house had known what hour the theif would come, he would have watched and not allowed his house to be broken into. Therefore you also be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect."

Are you ready? One thing that kinda has been laid upon my heart recently is faith WITH works. It's true that believing in Christ to be your Savior will save you and get you into heaven, but it's much more than that. You can just think that just because you're saved means you're good and you don't have to do anything else. The Bible says that faith without works is dead. Do you want to have dead faith? I define good works as glorifying God in everything that you do. And that is really, really hard to do. But it's good for us. Why? Because it requires us to exercise our faith in Christ. We can't do it in our own strength. We can't defeat our flesh. We have to overcome our desires. We have to want to glorify Him. We have to be ready. Are you ready?
