| Prepared |
| I noticed this statement one day while reading a Christian periodical: “If the Lord Jesus did not come where we were (into this world), we could never go where He is (the Father’s house).” |
| It brought to mind a similar statement by another writer: “On the cross He prepared His people for the place; His presence in the glory prepared the place for His people.” |
| Yes, everything has been done that could and can be done, and as a result there is a wonderful place called heaven, or the Father’s house, all prepared and waiting for the moment when the Lord will call His redeemed ones home to Himself. |
| There is no further preparation on God’s part. He says, “Behold, I have prepared … all things are ready: come” (Matthew 22:4). The question is, Are you prepared? |
| Amos said, “Prepare to meet thy God” (Amos 4:12). |
| The Lord Jesus said, “Therefore be ye also ready” (Matthew 24:44). |
| He came where we were — He has made full preparation, but are you prepared? Do you know Him as Saviour? Will you go where He is when you leave this world? |
