Trim Off

 

Text: Mathew 25: 7 

Then all those virgins arose and trimmed their lamps.

Friends, what is your sincere engagement at that odd hour? Looking at the scripture above the wise virgins made good use of the middle of the night as they were getting ready for the Master.They did not just sleep off rather they arose to prepare themselves for the bride groom.Remember, there are so many things to do at that difficult time, but for the foolish virgins they were sleeping just to rise up to beg for oil from the wise virgins. These wise virgins even in their position as virgins, they did not relent rather continued to sharpen themselves as to preserve their personality. LET’S WAKE UP TO DUTY. Luke 12:36 And ye yourselves like unto men that wait for their Lord, when he will return from the wedding that when he cometh and knocking, they may open unto him immediately.

Interestingly, the virgins trimmed their lamb so as to remain relevant to shine as light. 1Cori10:12 Wherefore let him that thinketh he standeth take heed lest he fail.  We are in injury time where many are shifting from their belief and turning aside to ungodliness.  But, we are encouraged to keep holding on but cut off as we lay aside every weight that so easily beset us which can affect our focus in this kingdom.  Beloved, we need constructive collaboration as believers as to create boundaries in our relationships towards fulfillment in these last days in Jesus name.

Prayer Point:Father, may I drop off the excesses that is slowing me down in my quest for new heights in Jesus name.
