Mark 13:33 Watch and Pray

Mark 13:33 (KJV) Take ye heed, watch and pray: for ye know not when the time is.

Spiritual alertness comes with watching and praying. To watch is to be aware of the time and the season, where the prophetic clock is ticking. We are certainly in the times when Christ’s kingdom is to be ushered in. The noticeable movements of the rise of the kingdom of darkness which the kingdom of light will dispel.

It is the dusk before the dawn. The admonition is that God’s people be prepared and ready for the Lord’s return. Christ’s kingdom is at hand – Mark 13:34-37 (KJV) For the Son of man is as a man taking a far journey, who left his house, and gave authority to his servants, and to every man his work, and commanded the porter to watch. Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping. And what I say unto you I say unto all, Watch.

Let His people therefore, watch, to work while it is day. Amen.
