PREPARE TO MEET OUR SAVIOUR JESUS CHRIST, MAY BE YOU HAVE ONE MORE THING TO ACCOMPLISH.

"But of the times and the seasons, brethren, you have no need that I write unto you. For yourselves know perfectly that the day of the Lord cometh as a thief in the night. For when they shall say, peace and safety; then sudden destruction cometh upon them, as travail upon a woman with child; and they shall not escape."(1 Tes. 5:4)

Brethren, we have much task to accomplish, and that is preparing ourselves to meet the Lord.

There are all indications that the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ is at hand. But some of us hold the view that Christ coming has kept much longer, meanwhile we are not fully prepared, should it happens that He comes today.

The Christ coming needs a thorough self assessment, since those who even say they have prepared might have left one more thing to qualify them to heaven.

Remember the rich man who went Jesus Christ for salvation, it was left one more thing to qualify for salvation; thus: to sell all his belongings and give the money to the poor people.(Matt. 19:21)

The rich man was complete in obeying all the ten commandments, but Jesus said; it has left with one more thing!, to sell all your property and give the poor and you will be saved.

In fact, it became a burden for the rich man to sell his property and give to the poor. That is what some of us are, we still have one more sin to be eradicated from our lives, but we think that it is difficult to abstain from that peculiar sin.

Or, we still have one good thing to offer to our neighbour who is in trouble, but we find it difficult to offer. We are by this message, to do self analysis, and find your short falls, in order to become whole.

Do not think that you are perfect before the Lord, lets all the time assess our possible short comings and do what is best.

Some people are too sure of themselves that they have qualified for eternal life, but they do not know that, they have left one more thing to complete.

Lets take our time and prepare fully for Lord's coming, so that he does not come and meet with one more hidden thing to complete. Lets stay in touch with our Lord Jesus Christ.

Jesus will indeed come to take away his one, that is those who have given their live to him and have left everything behind to follow him closely. The day and the hour for his coming is unknown to anyone and that is why we must be viglant, watch, pray and be prepared for him. thanks for reminding us what we need to do in order not to miss heaven @oppongk
