What would you do if you knew a thief was coming to your home today? I hope you will prepare! Be Ready to open the door 

 

• Be Ready for service and keep your lamps lit 

• You are to be like people waiting for the master to return from the wedding banquet so that when he comes and knocks on the door they can open 

• Blessed are those whom the master finds alert when he comes 

• He will get ready to recline and serve them 

• If he comes in the middle of the night or near dawn and he finds them alert blessed are those who are alert 

• If the homeowner knew the thief was coming he would not let his house be broken into 

• You must also be ready because you do not know when the  Son of man is coming when you least expect him 

Be faithful 

• The master put faithful managers in charge of his household 

• Blessed is the servant who is found doing his job when the Master returns 

• He will put him in charge of all his possessions 

• But the servant who says my master is delaying his coming and begins to beat his servants  eats and gets drunk when the master comes on that unexpected he hew will cut him into pieces and assign him to a place with the unfaithful 

• The servant who knows that his master will and does not do it will be severely punished 

• The servant who didn't know and did what deserved punishment will receive a light beating 

• For everyone who has given much, much will be required and from the one who has been entrusted with much even more will be expected 

• Jesus says he came to bring fire on the earth (judgment -what does fire do REFINE 

• I wish it were already here to set it ablaze 

• BUT I have  a baptism (the crucifixion and resurrection)

• How it consumes me  until IT IS FINISHED the mission would be complete 

• Do you think I come to bring peace? Peace with God those who choose to be his disciples

• Unbelievers remain at odds with God and His requirements 

 

• He would bring division in households and families 

• Division over the gospel of Christ in some families split them down the middle 

• The Spiritual family is more important the family bloodline Holman commentary 

• They could interpret the weather but not the present time they refused to see Jesus as the Messiah

Be Reconciled

• He compares it to a legal dispute reconciles to God  before you get to the court of final judgment when the Gravel is down it is done 

• Settle the account before it is too late

If Jesus were to come today will you be found ready, and in faith? 

Have you been reconciled to Christ through this finished work at the cross?

 

The chew 

Be Alert for you don’t know when your Master will return. Don’t Delay the Master is on his way

Apart from a personal relationship with Jesus, your prayers are void-GB

 

 

The Desire to Learn to Pray

• Jesus was praying in a certain place
• The disciple asked to be taught to pray. Prayer can be taught and shown by example. 
• They see him praying and they want to pray for themselves 

 

He tells them what to say :

• Father - we called God by Name 
• Hallowed be your name- your name is holy 
• Your kingdom come- we operate for the purpose of glorifying the kingdom will
• Give us each day our daily bread - pray for daily provision we don't stockpile this kind of bread
• We can't live off bread alone but by every word of God 
• Forgive us our sins-we acknowledge our sins 1 John 1:9
• Forgive others because we have been forgiven 
• Lead us not into temptation- protect us from the things people and places that cause us to fall away from God

Persistent Prayer 

He then gives the story of the persistent friend who needed bread and his friend didn't have anything but his friend but because of his friend's boldness he will get up and help him 

• ask it will be given 
• So he said asking it would be given 
• seek and you will find
• knock And the door will be open 
• everyone who acts receives whoever seats fine 
• to him who knocks the door will be open

Our Earthly parents if we ask for something we'll try their best to give us what we asked for and not the opposite so how much more will our heavenly father give us the good gifts

The greatest gift that he gives us is the gift of the Holy Spirit

How is your prayer life?

 

Jesus > Satan 

• Jesus is casting out a demon and someone who is mute
• The person begins to speak everyone is amazed so they say that he is driving out demons with demons
• Others told him to do a sign from heaven despite his continuously doing all of these Miracles healing and casting out evil people still did not want to believe 
• He said that a kingdom against itself would be divided in a house divided against itself will fall and he said if Satan is divided against himself how can his kingdom stand
• Then he kind of like roasted them he said that if I'm driving out by saying then how y'all driving it out but if I drive them out by the Finger of God and the kingdom of God has come near you
• He was letting them know that he was driving this out through his power and God
• He next says that when a strong man fully armed guards his house his possessions are safe but when someone stronger than him attacks and overpowers him and takes away his armor that
• Plunder his stuff-divides his spoils satan thinks he is winning for now but God is taking Satan’s kingdom one by one 
• Whoever is not with me is against me whoever does not gather with me scatter 

 

If you are not on God’s side then you are on satans

There is no middle no neutral 

Why would you want to stay on the losing team?

To be undecided is to be decided 

The two forces are at work, trying to win your allegiance 

One will win 

 

• He was letting us know that he is stronger than the evil one 
• He can overcome all of Satan's plans 

 

Any vacancy in your heart?

 

• Vacant hearts have opportunities if your heart is not occupied by Jesus then there is a vacancy for Satan 
• It goes back to the house because there is not a resident
• he says when an evil spirit comes out of a man it goes through places looking for rest and does not find it
• this lets us know that demonic spirits love to find a body to reside in a place to take up residence I will return to the house I left and even though it's been swept clean and put so that is going to come back seven times more wicked than itself and go in and live there and at the final state was worse than the first state 

 To empty the evil we must fill with Jesus and his Holy Spirit 

 

• This woman cries out blesses you know he that was born in his mama who nursed him and Jesus said blessed are those who hear my word and Obey it 

The Chew

We must train ourselves to pray on every occasion and we must make sure we are in the right standing with God to pray

"Prayer always begins with a relationship. If there is not an established relationship, there is no basis for prayer. The Father's ear is always open to the children's cry. And if you have that relationship with God where you can say, "Father," then you've established that relationship that opens prayer for you, effective prayer for you. But if you do not have that relationship, then prayer is meaningless. There is only one prayer that God wants to hear from you if you are not His child, and that's the prayer, "God, be merciful to me a sinner." And that establishes then relationship, and opens this glorious opportunity of prayer for each one of you. But prayer begins with relationship" Chuck Smith
