We have been called to go out into a dying world and proclaim the good news of salvation. In fact Jesus instructed us to"To go ye into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature." It is by the truth of our testimony, and our witness of God's revelation to mankind, that a dying world will know there is a Savior, who is Jesus the Christ, but we've got to wake up.
In our text Jesus asked His inner circle to watch and pray while He went to the Father in prayer. He is asking us, those who profess to be His, to watch and pray while He is away with the Father, preparing a place for us.We are to watch over and pray for the lost souls He came to save. Let us not be found a sleep when He returns. Let us wake up to the needs of this dying world. Wake up to the truth of God's word. Wake up to the fact that it is not about us, or where we worship, the denomination to which we belong, the pastor or bishop we sit up under or even if we are saved or not. We need to wake up to the fact that it is about Jesus Christ and Him crucified, and the need for a lost world to hear this good news.
Jesus came back to find them sleep.Will He find you sleep when He returns, or will He find you watching and praying. There is a dying world counting on us to share with them that which God so gracefully shared with us. Let us wake up and do our part that none be lost. Let us tell all that we see that Jesus Christ is the way..
