Beloved in Luke 19:13 Jesus called his ten servants, and delivered them ten pounds, and said unto them, Occupy till I come. 

Now, this is the word of Jesus to us today, the waiting church, "Occupy till I come. “Beloved we are not to sit back and say, "Well, the Lord is coming; there’s no sense of finishing my education. Well, the Lord is coming; there’s no sense in me starting this business project...or, let’s just wait, because the Lord is coming. Some Christians are saying  "Well, let’s go out and charge everything, because the Lord’s coming, and we won’t have to pay for it."  No, he said Occupy till I come,  listen we are not to plan our lives based upon the Lord’s coming in a particular span of time. But we are to occupy until He comes. Yet, anticipate Him to come at any moment, and never get so involved that I’m not ready to drop things at a moment’s notice. Because that’s what we may have to do. Beloved we are to use the time that we have wisely in our serving the Lord. We are to occupy until He comes, but never to just sit down and say, "Okay, Lord, we’re just going to wait now here until you come.  In the midst of this crazy world, may we keep busy until He comes. Listen to Dr. Lockridge's sermon “ Occupy Until He Comes.  And have a blessed day.
