A Scripture and a Prayer: “Are We Prepared”

“For many are called, but few are chosen … Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour in which the Son of Man is coming” (Matthew 22:14; 25:13)

Prayer:

Lord, I know you have called us to be witnesses of Your love, and also of Your coming and impending judgment. Amid all that is going on in our lives, we need to remain faithful to this calling because things will not get any easier; rather, they will get harder. You, Lord Jesus, promised this, and You also promised a blessing with it. You said, “These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world.” So, while troubles surround this calling, let us choose to believe in the promise of Your peace and victory, and see You do many great and marvelous things. AMEN
