Come Lord Jesus! That is the final note echoing from this amazing book of revelations. It is the cry of every heart that is attuned to the reality of God and the reality of the state of this world. God doesn’t want us to be content with the way things are in the world. He doesn’t want us to feel at home in the world system. He wants us to feel homesick for the new world and he wants us to feel the sting of all that is wrong with the world so that our hearts are always rightly oriented. He wants us to be looking forward to what he is about to do and plugged in to what he is now doing. Jesus told us to be alert and watchful in this age because he knew how easily we might be drawn into the complacency of materialism and the distractions of worldly endeavours. The best thing that can happen to us when we drift off into the sleep of complacency is that we get shaken up. It is no easy thing to stay awake at the wheel of life, but we must make every effort to ensure we remain alert. I encourage you to continue to feed your mind and heart with the things of God. Continue to pray, worship and seek God. Keep your mind and heart oriented upwards. Always be aware of what is God is doing and what he wants you to do. Never lose sight of the big picture. Remember what is really going on in heaven and on earth. Do this and you will THRIVE.
Ask God to awaken your spirit.
Read Revelation 22:17-21
