Jesus warns us in these last days to watch and pray . He warned His disciples the same when Jesus went to the garden to pray before He was betrayec. He came back found them sleeping.
Now is not the time for the bride of Christ to be sleeping . Jesus provided the signs of the end time. And in mark 13 five times Jesus says take heed. Verses 5, 9, 23, 33 take heed He says gives the idea of a state of watchfulness seasoned with prayer.
Jesus provided specific details on what to be watchful of.
In the parable of ten virgins speaks of 5 wise and 5 foolish. Keep in mind ten is a equal number equal opportunity to take oil into their lamps leaving no excuse for those without oil in their lamp because they slumbered and slept. Religious activity is useless without the Holy spirit .
When we yield to the Spirit walk in the Spirit and follow after the Spirit there is a constant flow available. Those who walk after the flesh outside of the flow of the Holy Spirit are willfully choosing to take no oil into their lamp.
Considering that no man knows the time day nor hour we ought to live for Eternity today as if Jesus would return today. Today is the day of salvation we are not promised tomorrow life is a vapor here today gone tomorrow. It would be wise to take oil into your lamp daily
