But who can endure the day of His coming? And who can stand when He appears? For He is like a refiner’s fire And like launderers’ soap.
Malachi 3:2
In the presence of the Holy God, I am in need of the redeemer. My righteousness is a filthy rag and scores a zero, but praise God that He provided a spiritual laundry detergent to make my unclean soul shine like a light.
Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come.
2 Corinthians 5:17
There you have it; I’m a dead woman.
I want to be ready. When Jesus returns for his bride, I don’t want there to be any chance of me being not found in Him. I want to know Him now. When I look in the spiritual mirror I want to see Him.
I often ask myself “what is your number one priority?” If the answer isn’t the Kingdom of Heaven, I have to repent.
If I believe Jesus is coming back soon, what should my life look like? It should be full of time spent in prayer asking Jesus :
- Is there any offense in me? I repent of it.
- Is my walking worthy?
- What would you like me to do with today?
- What can I do for your people today?
- Where would you like me to go today?
- What can I give today?
- How can I make a difference in the body?
- Who can I disciple?
- Who can I pray for?
- In what situation can I show your love?
- Who can I partner with for you to heal?
- Am I trying to solve things without the Holy Spirit assistance?
- Have I been worried, instead of bringing the situation to you?
- Am I looking to social media for validation?
- Do I reach for my phone or my Bible more?
- What idols in my own life do I need to tear down?
- Is there anyone near me that is broken?
Ok, I fell short yesterday, God forgive me. I repent of living for me. May today be the day I put you first.
