Whatcha’ Doin’?

“And there will be signs in sun and moon and stars, and on the earth distress of nations in perplexity because of the roaring of the sea and the waves, people fainting with fear and with foreboding of what is coming on the world. For the powers of the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to take place, straighten up and raise your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” (Luke 21:25-28 ESV)

When Jesus comes, what will I be doing? What will I be saying?

I think we should ask ourselves this question at each breath because God’s Word says we can breathe out life or death or both. I don’t want words of death coming out of my mouth at all. 

We can change that RIGHT NOW, RIGHT HERE! We can pray to the Lord and ask for His help in purifying our hearts.

David prayed, “How can I know all the sins lurking in my heart? Cleanse me from these hidden faults. Keep your servant from deliberate sins! Don’t let them control me.” (Psalm 19:12-13 NLT)

If David prayed this, then how much more should we? 

Did you notice in Luke’s scripture that Jesus gives us a little bit of time by saying, “Now when these things begin to take place, straighten up…” That’s great Grace! That’s God’s covenant with His people!

So…

What are you doing right now?
