Watcher

Mat 26:41  Watch and pray, that ye enter not into temptation: the spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak.

Do we watch and pray so we don't enter into temptation?

Our Savior said these words- "The spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak."

And because our spirit is willing but our flesh weak- we MUST WATCH and PRAY.

WATCH and PRAY!

Are you a WATCHER?

Should you be a WATCHER?

We need to ALL watch, all who would be our Savior's. 

We need to ALL pray.

Tell me every day do you watch? What does it mean to watch?  It means to be ready. To know that our Savior is returning, and doing so soon. We watch, we hope, we know and this must be a constant in our lives.  Watch- look for- and in watching and looking be ready.

We have all waited for people to come see us.  If necessary we prepare for their arrival.  Our Savior wants us ready for Him. Our Savior wants us prepared for Him. Our Savior wants us to be waiting. Our Savior wants us to be praying.

More tomorrow by the grace of our LORD and SAVIOR, JESUS CHRIST!

Amen.
