We Must be Ready. But How?

Written by Maureen G Metcalf

Make Him our conscious companion wherever we go, and in whatever we do. Christianity is not merely a religious belief system. It is a living relationship with Jesus Christ! Jesus does not want an arm's length relationship with us. Since he has chosen us to be His Bride, He desires a close relationship! The Bride knows her Bridegroom intimately because she has a living, ongoing, loving, interactive relationship with her Betrothed!

Jesus said some interesting things which tell us how we are to live. Love one another. Do nice things for one another. Be helpful when others need assistance, or cannot provide for themselves.

Be generous with what we have in order to meet other's needs. He even told us to love our enemies! Be kind to those who are unkind to us! Why? That shows His love through us, and actually draws them up short! Why would anyone treat them kindly when they are going out of their way to be unkind or mean? It makes them think! As much as possible, be peacemakers. Avoid unnecessary, unproductive arguments. Interaction is good so long asrepparttar one we are sharing with is at least willing to discuss, even if they hold an opposing opinion. But arguments never accomplish anything except animosities and hard feelings. Seek to treat othersrepparttar 126759 way we want to be treated - with respect. Stand firmly for truth and justice even if no one else does. But atrepparttar 126760 same time show mercy, grace, and extend forgiveness. Hold people accountable, but also raiserepparttar 126761 standard. Do not be a push-over or a door-mat. Stand, lovingly, but firmly for what is true and proper. Do not take unfair advantage of others.

Never seek revenge. The LORD will ultimately mete out His judgment onrepparttar 126762 ungodly and disobedient.

Obeyrepparttar 126763 laws ofrepparttar 126764 land, because they are in place to protect us from harm. Pray for wisdom, discernment, and strength. Do not entertain evil. Do not adopt alternate philosophies of men, or involve ourselves in occult practices. These are just a few directives we find in Scripture.

Where in Scripture do we find a specific set of guidelines forrepparttar 126765 Bride? Read Jesus' messages torepparttar 126766 Seven Churches of Revelation chapters 2 and 3. They are very revealing! Then follow His advice by listening torepparttar 126767 Holy Spirit guiding us in how to put these requirements into practice. If we actively applyrepparttar 126768 LORD's revealed principles of love to our lives, we will qualify to be His Bride, ready for our heavenly wedding. John continues inrepparttar 126769 passage in Revelation 19, verse 8."And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: forrepparttar 126770 fine linen isrepparttar 126771 righteousness ofrepparttar 126772 saints." She qualifies to be given her wedding dress! She has "made herself ready."

You can make up your own innovations. I keep my innovations simple I simply callrepparttar angels names like a chant.

As a planetary angel, Archangel Michael rules abundance, money, and growth. Use gold and yellow colours/candles/cloth/flowers, a sun symbol, and a piece of gold. As a planetary angel, Archangel Raphael rules business, contracts, and buying and selling. Use orange coloured items, a Mercury symbol {winged sandals}, and some quicksilver {mercury in a thermometer} and aluminum. The planetary angel Sadkiel rules prosperity, expansion, generosity, banks, and loans. Use something coloured electric blue, a symbol of Jupiter and some tin or zinc. I keep my innovations simple I chantrepparttar 126758 name ofrepparttar 126759 angel seeing them come into my life. I imagine their colors. Once I am relaxed I begin to call onrepparttar 126760 name ofrepparttar 126761 angel Michael.

Do this daily for thirty days and your life will change.
