How to prepare for the rapture (Part1)

IOI CHRISTIAN MORNING MEAL

TOPIC: HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE RAPTURE (Part 1) ?

Some precious children of the LORD yesterday wrote to me and asked me some fundamental questions about Rapture and how to prepare for rapture.

Matthew 5:20 KJV
For I say unto you, That except your righteousness shall exceed the righteousness of the scribes and Pharisees, ye shall in no case enter into the kingdom of heaven.

1 John 2:28 KJV
And now, little children, abide in him; that, when he shall appear, we may have confidence, and not be ashamed before him at his coming.

On your question about how to prepare for the Rapture:

1-Repentance:

Turning away from sin and turning away from walking on the broad road and asking the LORD Jesus Christ with sincerity from your heart to wash you with His precious blood and to have mercy on you and forgive you your sins.
And asking the LORD Jesus Christ to always cover you with His precious blood and baptize you with His Holy Spirit.
The LORD is merciful and He will forgive you all sins.
But since we live in a sinful world, Repentance on a daily basis is essential.
And remember to also forgive all those who have wronged you. Matthew 6:15 KJV
But if ye forgive not men their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

2-Living in Righteousness:

-Living a life that is right with the LORD. And it entails being obedient to the LORD by following His commandments. And this involves seeking and following the truth as stated in the Bible. And so reading the Bible will show you how to live a life of Righteousness. Ecclesiastes 12:13 KJV
Let us hear the conclusion of the whole matter: Fear God, and keep his commandments: for this is the whole duty of man.

3-Walking in Holiness

The bible says that without Holiness no one will see the LORD.
Walking in Holiness means separating yourself from the worldly lifestyle and taking the narrow road where the presence of the LORD is and where the power of the Holy Spirit will guide you. It means sacrificing your life for the LORD, and this may mean avoiding the worldly habits like smoking, drinking etc and living a life worthy of your calling of being a child of the LORD God Almighty. You may also have to let go of friends, family, habits, dressing and lifestyle etc that do not glorify the LORD since they may be a bad influence on your walk with the LORD. 1 John 5:21 KJV
Little children, keep yourselves from idols. Amen.

4-Surrendering completely to The LORD Jesus Christ

The LORD requires complete surrender of one’s life to him. Half world and half Christ is not accepted by the LORD, and those who live such life are known as lukewarm Christians. And the LORD says in the book of Revelation chapter 3 that He will spit such lukewarm Christians because they are neither warm nor cold.
And so surrender fully to the LORD and let Him take care and control of your life. Revelation 3:16 KJV
So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spue thee out of my mouth.

5-Watch and pray

-The LORD is only coming to pick those who are watching for His return because in so doing they will be like the 5 wise virgins in the book of Mathew Chapter 25 whose lamps are full of the oil (The Holy Spirit) because they endeavor to be in the presence of the LORD in prayer, Repenting, Righteousness, Holiness, Truth and full surrender to the LORD Jesus Christ.

LET US PRAY
DEAR HEAVENLY FATHER, MAKE US READY ALWAYS FOR YOUR COMING AND GIVE US GRACE TO WAIT ON YOU IN JESUS NAME.
