Watch & Pray
This post is completely different from what I had in mind to post. I have had to pause a little on the actual post I had in mind in order to put together and publish this short post as a result of some articles I have read and videos I have watched in the past 2 days. There really is no need for me to go on and on about the articles or the videos; all I want to say is that there is so much going on spiritually around us and in the world but so many of us have no clue as we are caught up in many other things and in the affairs of this life. I would therefore like to encourage and implore each and everyone of us to watch, pray and stand guard. Try as much as possible to keep abreast of things going on around the world as much as you can. Some things happening around us are exactly as they seem, whilst some are not as they seem. Either way, WATCH AND PRAY!!!! May God help us all and see us through in Jesus name. Amen!
My lovely sister posted these three verses from a hymn on her Facebook page, which resonated quite a lot with me and I have decided to share on here as well.
Christian, Seek Not Yet Repose by Charlotte Elliot
Christian! seek not yet repose,
Hear thy guardian angel say;
Thou art in the midst of foes;
“Watch and pray.”
Principalities and powers,
Mustering their unseen array,
Wait for thy unguarded hours;
“Watch and pray.”
Gird thy heavenly armor on,
Wear it ever night and day;
Ambushed lies the evil one;
“Watch and pray.”
Word of the day…
1 Peter 5v8 - Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.
Absolute word! Things as we know it are about to change.
This is very true. What goes on behind the scenes if eyes were opened would make Christ Followers pray for His return.
May we know what inspired this post?
