In Matthew 25:1-13 Jesus tells us a parable where 10 virgins are waiting for their groom to come and get them. The groom was late and 5 virgins were not prepared for his coming. They were missing because they had to get oil for their lamps. The other 5 virgins were prepared and they had kept their lamps full of oil. They were ready when Jesus the groom arrived.
How do you keep your oil lamps full? Isaiah 40:31 tells us, "but they who wait for the LORD shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings like eagles; they shall run and not be weary; they shall walk and not faint. "
David encourages us to wait for the Lord, Psalm 27:14 "Wait for the LORD; be strong, and let your heart take courage; wait for the LORD! "
In Matthew 6:6 Jesus tells us to go to a quite place to seek the Lord, "... But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you. "
In Matthew 6:19-21 Jesus tell us the importance of seeking Heavenly treasure (oil of great price), “Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also. "
In Revelation 3:18 Jesus advises the church to come to Him for true riches, spiritual wealth, " I counsel you to buy from me gold refined by fire, so that you may be rich, and white garments so that you may clothe yourself and the shame of your nakedness may not be seen, and salve to anoint your eyes, so that you may see. "
Be encouraged, JESUS IS COMING SOON! Jesus command us to watch for His coming, Matt 24:42-44 "Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect. "
Paul encourages believers to endure and persevere because Jesus' promise is near, Hebrews 10:36,37 " For you have need of endurance, so that when you have done the will of God you may receive what is promised. For, 'Yet a little while, and the coming one will come and will not delay; '"
James encourages us to be patient, James 5:7-8 "Be patient, therefore, brothers, until the coming of the Lord. See how the farmer waits for the precious fruit of the earth, being patient about it, until it receives the early and the late rains. You also, be patient. Establish your hearts, for the coming of the Lord is at hand."
Jesus tells us in Revelation 3:11, "I am coming soon. Hold fast what you have, so that no one may seize your crown."
In 1 Corinthians 16:22 Paul says, "If anyone has no love for the Lord, let him be accursed. Our Lord, come! ( Greek Maranatha )"
Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!
