Oh Lord, I pray that people will wake up to know You. That their time coming to You will no longer be found in a church, but outside of its walls also. That their time will no longer be found when worshipping one day a week, but every day of their lives. That their time reading the Bible will no longer be one day a week, but every day of their lives. How can we say that we are true believers when our belief system is only on display while at church? For we are nothing more than the Scribes, Pharisees, and Sadducees in Your day, Jesus. They knew how to appear righteous on the outside while in the temple, but inside their heart was far from You. They didn’t live by what You commanded them, but what they added unto the law instead. And so we have them and people now who live by their own terms. Many people know what You have taught in scripture, but still, justify their sinful actions even if it goes against Your Word. Lord, I just pray that people will come to a realization of how far they have distanced themselves from You because of their sins. And speaking of being sinful, they cannot come to this realization unless they begin to let You in their lives. Then, can You pierce their hearts and convict them of things they are doing wrong. As for me, I am so grateful that I allowed You into my life. And instead of me being fearful of Your coming, I now welcome it. I can’t wait for Your return, for it is what I live for each day. I live for You, Jesus, for You are my Savior and my King. Come soon, my Lord. I am waiting for You. I just wish that others will be ready for that day. I will try to help them prepare, but they must desire to be saved on their own. I love You. Amen.
