Getting prepared

 Thanksgiving ... Men for the Master in song

25 November 2011.

Revelation 5:13-14  And every creature which is in Heaven, and in the earth, and underneath the earth, and the things that are on the sea, and the things in all of them, I heard saying: To Him sitting on the throne, and to the Lamb be the blessing and the honour and the glory and the might forever and ever. And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the twenty four elders fell down and worshiped the One living forever and ever.

Heaven is a prepared place for prepared people. Each of us has to be available in our time of preparation on earth to be exposed to what Jesus wants us to do, how to pray, how to worship and so on. So we need to study the Bible in order to be prepared and that implies actually putting into practise that which we study. The difference between knowing your Bible and doing what you know is vast, even the devil knows the Bible well, and he refuses to implement it.

As Christians we need to be doing more, and in doing more, learn more from personal experience rather than studying someone else’s experience. All you have to do is, ‘just do it’. The more we practise being Christian the more prepared we become. So we practise worship on earth in the presence of people so that when we are in heaven we worship with angels. Our practise field starts in our home, then to the church and then to the whole world, when we have practised enough heaven is our next goal.

Be encouraged today to start being prepared for heaven.
