*THE GROCERY STORE*

MEMORY VERSE:
*“And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.”*
(LUKE 14:17)

*TEXT:*
LUKE 14:16-22 (KJV)

"16. Then said he unto him, A certain man made a great supper, and bade many:

17. And sent his servant at supper time to say to them that were bidden, Come; for all things are now ready.

18. And they all with one consent began to make excuse. The first said unto him, I have bought a piece of ground, and I must needs go and see it: I pray thee have me excused.

19. And another said, I have bought five yoke of oxen, and I go to prove them: I pray thee have me excused.

20. And another said, I have married a wife, and therefore I cannot come.

21. So that servant came, and shewed his lord these things. Then the master of the house being angry said to his servant, Go out quickly into the streets and lanes of the city, and bring in hither the poor, and the maimed, and the halt, and the blind.

22. And the servant said, Lord, it is done as thou hast commanded, and yet there is room."

*THE MESSAGE:*

The grocery store is like a super-market where one can buy basic things for use at home. It ranges from fruits, nuts, grains and all types of food items that the body needs to function well.

There are grocery stores in many neighbourhood. With them scattered here and there, shopping is made easy. However, it is not everyone that can benefit from the good things in the grocery stores no matter how near it may be to him/her.

Individuals must have to make up his/her mind to patronize the store in order to purchase needed items.

Our God in heaven has a large store house filled with everything we desire or need. However, God's large store contains much more precious things than food and drinks.

This is the important message the parable in our Bible passage is passing across to us. The store h

TOPIC:
*READINESS FOR THE RAPTURE*

KEY VERSE:
*"Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh”*
(MATTHEW 24:44).

*READING:*

MATTHEW 24:40-44 (KJV)

"40. Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41. Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42. Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43. But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44. Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh."

*THE MESSAGE:*

The Second Coming of Jesus Christ is an event that every believer must be prepared for.

In Matthew 24:40-44, Jesus warns that His return will be sudden and unexpected. Two will be in the field—one will be taken, the other left. Two will be grinding at the mill—one will be taken, the other left.

This highlights the importance of readiness, as there will be no time for last-minute preparations. To be ready for the rapture, one must have a genuine relationship with Christ through salvation.

Living a life of holiness, prayer, and obedience to God’s Word ensures that we are constantly prepared for His coming.

The parable of the wise and foolish virgins (Matthew 25:1-13) further emphasises the necessity of being spiritually vigilant.

Are you ready for Christ’s return? The distractions of the world can make people complacent, but Jesus instructs us to watch and be sober. The Bible assures us that those who are faithful will be caught up with Him in glory.

Let us live daily with eternity in view, ensuring that our hearts are right with God.
