Don’t Be Caught off Guard

“Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of Man cometh."  (Matthew 25:13)

Seventy-six years ago today, on December 7, 1941, America was attacked by the Japanese navy in a surprise air operation. We were not warned nor were we ready. Several of our ships were destroyed and sunk. The USS Arizona was sunk killing more than 1,100 soldiers. As a result the United States entered World War Two and vowed never to be caught unprepared again. A popular song in that long ago time was, “Let’s All Remember Pearl Harbor.”

Sometime out in the future, at a time not revealed to man, the Lord Jesus Christ will come back and claim His own. Many people will be as unprepared as the nation was on December 7, 1941. You can be prepared if you will accept Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord.  Jesus tells us to watch because we do not know the day nor hour when our Lord shall return.
