“Not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as the manner of some is; but exhorting one another, and so much the more, as ye see the day approaching” (Hebrews 10:25).
It is easy to come together for meetings when everything is going well, and many other people come out to hear the Word of God. But God has told us in the Bible that when we are in the last days, things will get worse and worse in this world. Also, even among believers things will gradually get weaker. Then it takes real spiritual energy to get together with other believers to pray and read the Word of God.
But here we are told that as we see the day of judgment approaching, we are to come together more and more, for we need one another for support and fellowship. Life is busy today, and there can be a lot of reasons why we think we should stay home. But it is important to come together, and enjoy the Lord collectively. We need the encouragement of the Word of God and prayer more than ever!
