He knew

Zechariah 4-6; Luke 12

Luke 12:35-38
³⁵"Be dressed ready for service and keep your lamps burning, ³⁶like men waiting for their master to return from a wedding banquet, so that when he comes and knocks they can immediately open the door for him. ³⁷It will be good for those servants whose master finds them watching when he comes. I tell you the truth, he will dress himself to serve, will have them recline at the table and will come and wait on them. ³⁸It will be good for those servants whose master finds them ready, even if he comes in the second or third watch of the night.

Jesus, even before he was born, knew the world inside and out. He was there when God formed the earth and its people. Jesus was there when God wiped the earth of its perversions. He was there when God was pleased and disappointed. Jesus knew it all. He knew his people and those who were against Him. Jesus also knew the time when He would die and rise again and come back on earth to save his people. He knew.

There are times that i go through seasons that I really can't explain where that particular time in my life started. Seasons can be good and others can bring you down. This particular season in my life hasn't been the best and I forgot that God already knew that this season in my life was coming. He knew that I would be in a slump for some time. But he also knows the time and day that I will get out of it. He knows the joyful season that is coming up. However, I didn't prepare myself in this season.

No matter if it is up or down, we need to be prepared for God. He is our master and He can come knocking on the door any time. And some of us aren't prepared because the time in our lives aren't the best. But i think that's just an excuse. God wants us to praise Him, search for Him, find Him no matter where we are or what we are doing. No matter if things look good or bad...It is He that we need to praise, because when he does come back, we will be ready.

Father,
Thank you for never leaving my side no matter what place in life I was in. You were and always will be there for me and I can never thank you enough. You are my light and I trust in you during the dark days and nights. Forgive my forgetfulness and selfishness by not seeking you enough. I praise you all my days.
I forever love you always
Amen
