“You know how to discern the face of the sky, but you cannot discern the signs of the times” (Matthew 16.3)
The world is in the midst of a tremendous crisis. The economy shrinks at a low rate, and the unemployment’s rate is at its higher level since the great depression. Divorce rates are climbing, and moral values are under attack. Public officials become more and more unpredictable. Strife between nations tends to jeopardize peace in the world. The growth of imposters, the turning of spiritism, and the appearance of the scoffers who don’t endure sound doctrine remind us what Jesus has told his disciples about the nearness of his second coming:
“But when you hear of wars and commotions, do not be terrified; for these things must come to pass” (Luke 21.9)
“Now learn this parable from the fig tree: When its branch has already become tender and puts forth leaves, you know that the summer is near. So you also, when you see all these things, know that it is near-at the doors! Assuredly, I say to you, this generation will by no means pass away till all these things take place”(Matthew 24.32-34)
Christ is at the doors. That is the message behind all the sufferings that the world is facing today. So instead of looking for some world leaders to deliver you from the global crisis, start a better relationship with the Savior. Only Jesus when he comes back can and will restore your life. Therefore, make plan to be ready when He returns. Don’t let his second’s coming come on you unexpectedly.

Why you are a worker?
By: olu mike omoasegun | 08/12/2009As workers in the vineyard of the Lord, we should pause, and ask ourselves this important question: Why am I a worker? Failure to do this has led many to handle the service and work of God with carelessness, non-chalet and carefree attitudes. Many are what they like, the way they like and at the time they like, simply because they don’t know why they are workers.
