The Urgency of Readiness 0:02 We wanna honor God because He sees everything.0:10 You were born with a plan and a purpose. He's the god of all things possible. He's the god of all0:22 miracles.0:52 Welcome to Grace Grace with Naina Michelle. I'm Michelle Humphreys.0:56 And I am Naina Keegan. Welcome to the broadcast today. Today, we're gonna be talking about a pretty serious subject. You know, there's comes a day where we all have to be ready and be looking up because Jesus1:08 is coming back for his bride. And we don't know when that is. It could be, you know, the next 10 minutes, it could be 10 years from now, but all the signs right now are pointing to things are closer than1:20 ever. And so we want to make sure that everyone is ready because the our show today is is the title of it is, there will come a time when the door is shut, and that1:31 is a scripture that that there's gonna be a time where it is just too late, and nobody wants to take that chance. And so if you're in some kind of sin, if you're, you know, backslidden, or1:43 if you're not even saved and you don't know Jesus, we're gonna this is the show for you, because we're gonna talk all about that today because no 1 no 1 wants to have that door shut in their face and not1:55 not make it to eternity, to spend eternity with Jesus. I mean, I just that's to me, that just breaks my heart. You know, I I was telling her off the break that, you know, I'm driving in my car, and I see2:07 people walking or running or whatever, wherever I go, just the store. And I think they don't know. Do they know? Does they know Jesus? Do you know? Just you just look at people and2:19 you just think about the Lord's heart for all of them. He made all of those people, and it's not his will that any man should perish. And, that's the burden he's given both of us, you know,2:31 as as he spoke that that, we're to be end time harvesters for the kingdom of heaven. And so I think we must be going to be through end times. Yeah. You know? And and when you when you know the2:42 word and you know that all the things that are happening right now, lawlessness, and there's wars and rumors of wars and the fam famines and plagues, and we're hearing about all of these things all the time.2:55 So the door is going to be shut, and and we don't know when that is, but we don't wanna be on the wrong side of the door.3:02 No. And and you know the Bible talks about the that there were 10 virgins, and they were getting ready for the bridegroom, and Just Jesus. Half of them, which is3:14 Jesus, and half of them had oil when he came, and half of them did not. And that oil represents the Holy Spirit. Yes. And so when we get to a point3:26 where we're just going through the motions and we are no longer tapping in and abiding in in the Lord and where where it it said the Bible says,3:38 I am the vine, you are the branches. Yes. If we're not tapped in to the vine, he will throw us out. The door will be closed. If we don't have the oil in our3:50 lamp, the door will be closed whether we're ready or not. And and the the 5 that didn't have oil asked for the oil4:02 of the 5 that did, and they they didn't have time to give them oil. So they had to go, and they got in and the 5 the and and the other half were left out. And it says4:14 that, you know, in the twinkling of an eye4:17 Mhmm.4:17 That we will be caught up in the air, and we will be forever like him. And it says 1 will be in the bed, and 1 will be left in bed. You know, like 1 will be in the bed, and4:29 1 will go up. 1 will be in the field and 1 will go up. Like, not everybody is ready for the soon return of Jesus Christ. And I don't know what your eschatology is, you know,4:41 if you're pre trib, mid trib, post trib. You know what? I don't know exactly how it's gonna go down, but I do know that the Bible says those things, and I do4:53 believe that Jesus is going to return. And it says that many will come and say that they're the Lord even. How do we know it's him? Because he's coming back, and he's5:05 gonna split the sky. That's how you're gonna know. And if if the 1 who's saying he's Lord doesn't split the sky, that's a lie. He's not. And so we need to get5:16 closer than we ever have. We need to ask the Lord for the oil in our lamp to make sure that door is never shut on us. Because once the door is shut,5:28 it will not ever be opened again. That was that's the final opportunity, and so you never want to be behind the door and banging5:40 on that door asking God to let you in. There's a moment in time where where it will be too late.5:48 Well, because think about think about this nation. Think about even even, you know, most of the world really. You know, the Bible's gonna be preached throughout the whole6:00 world, and we are so close because we have the technology now to to get it everywhere. So scary. And so so think about that. So when you think that we have here in America,6:12 we have, basically a church on every corner. We have a zillion stations, radio, TV. We're part of that. You know, we get preach the gospel. It's almost impossible,6:24 even if you're scrolling through social media, to not see something, to see a meme with a scripture on it or something. And so you think about that if you've completely blatantly rejected God6:36 because you just don't want a part of it. It's 1 thing. I believe there's mercy. Everybody's gonna give an account. So if you're somebody, say a little baby, a child, like God6:48 who hasn't, you know, made those decisions, God has mercy for things, but you're gonna give an account. And if you rejected God and you chose to laugh at it or or or say that's not for you7:00 or whatever the case may be, and the door is shut, I'm telling you eternity, this life is a vapor. It is a vapor of7:08 the That's exactly what the Bible says.7:09 And it's like this. It's a split second compared to eternity, which is billions and billions and billions and years, endless endless, of where we're going next, where we get to spend eternity in heaven with7:21 our Lord and savior Jesus Christ. And so think about that. Think about why would you chance that? And and it's so on our hearts because it it not only is this about eternity, but it's about7:33 a transformed life here. And it's about taking as many people with us as that that people just who are lost and need to hear the word of God and need to know the love of God in in their7:45 hearts. And, you know, things right now are being shaken, violently shaken all over the world and all over the nation. Everything that can be shaken, Kim, is being shaken, and I think that those are7:56 somewhat birth pains for for what this end time is gonna look like, and it's going to get worse. And so if you think about the devil is you know, wants us to be double minded. 18:08 foot in the world, 1 foot oh, I you know, I know. I got I you know, I go to the to church once in a while or whatever that is. No. You cannot be sitting on the fence because the devil is the 18:20 shaking the fence, and he he doesn't want you to fall on the right side. So you need to know that these things are true. Jesus is coming for his bride. He's the8:32 bridegroom. He wants you to be in heaven with him. And if you don't make those decisions, you don't know what the next 10 minutes is gonna bring in your life. So we're gonna take a quick break, and we're8:44 gonna talk more about that when we come right back. Stay right there. You're watching Grace Grace with Nina and Michelle.8:49 Just like all of you, I had problems sleeping. I had tried every pillow out there and nothing worked. I'd flip flop all night, use my arm for support, and fall asleep, or I'd wake up with a sore neck or maybe a headache.9:01 Well, quality sleep comes from keeping your neck straight at night. You have to fill in that space between your head and your bed. That's why I invented MyPillow. MyPillow's patented fill adjusts to9:13 your exact individual needs, and it doesn't matter if you sleep on your back, stomach, side, or any combination of all 3.9:20 When I got my pillow, I'm asleep almost immediately. I stay asleep at night, and I wake up more well rested in the morning.9:28 So go to my pillow dot com or call the number on your screen. Use your promo code to get Classic King My Pillows for only 19 98. I mean, size just 18 98. Standard classic, my pill is9:40 only 14 98. That's right. Only 14 98. Plus all orders, 75 dollars or more, ship absolutely free.9:49 Welcome back to Grace Grace with Naina and Michelle, and we're talking about there's gonna be9:54 a time when the door will be shut. And isn't that just a eerie just picture that. I know I'm very visual. Just think about this giant door just being slammed in your face, and you have10:06 no way, no way of ever getting to the other side of that door where heaven is, where the glory is, wherever. And instead, what is the opposite end of that door? It is burning10:18 in hell in a lake of fire. Like, think about that. And so the choice is really simple, but people don't seem to believe or understand the severity of what we're talking about. And10:28 Well, when you think about it, like, think about just even maybe a hundred years ago. If you were to preach out of revelations, it would10:40 have almost sound sounded fictional. Like, it was fantastical. There's you know, like, how would we ever get to that point? Yeah. Now it's it's10:52 here. It's it's happening. You know? AI is gonna change our lives. In the next 5 years, it will be unrecognizable what AI does to the11:04 earth. I mean, that's that's what people are predicting. You know, experts are predicting these things.11:11 So it's the genie you can't put back in the bottle.11:13 Can't put back in the bottle. And some of the people that are involved in AI are very worried about humans, and so think about that. That would have11:25 been impossible a hundred years ago. Even when my children were born, I'm sure the Internet existed, but it wasn't like a daily thing for people. You know, by11:37 the time my youngest child was born, it it it was. You know, so it's happening very, very quickly. And then we can always look at Israel as a Yeah. As a clock, a a God11:49 clock, so to speak. And it says when you see Israel surrounded, look up11:55 Yes.11:55 Because your redemption is close. And so we see Israel completely surrounded. I mean, surrounded on every side.12:04 Yes.12:05 And let's we'll see what happens. And and and think about I think that we're about to enter a time of revival because I I I think we are12:17 gonna get into a revival like the world has never known, and then there'll probably be a great falling away if we don't disciple those people that are involved in that revival because12:29 the Bible does talk about a great falling away.12:31 Even the elect would be deceased.12:33 It's gonna be tricky because think about, you can take a person's face and make them say just about anything you want. You anything you want, really.12:42 Oh, and we'll believe that you didn't say those things.12:44 It's gonna look like you.12:46 It's astonishing. You know? So here's the scripture. It it says, and while they were going to buy like, think about it. So again, the the the bridesmaids 10, 5 with oil, 5 without in their12:57 lamps. And think about the lamp of the Holy Spirit being hushed out of your body, being shut down, no light. And and so so so they were leaving, they were they were going to buy the oil13:10 when the bridegroom came and those who were ready went with him to the marriage feast and then the door was shut. Think about it. That is so to me, it's like I just wanna13:21 cry. I just wanna, like think about and so even being ready, being ready, prepared, they were waiting, they had their holy spirit, they were, you know, think about just13:34 everything that you would need to be prepared for a bridegroom, for a wedding, like just think about the preparedness. In those same ways, we should prepare our heart. We should prepare our lives, prepare our13:45 families, and and and know to to, you know, maybe what are you doing that we can lay down? Are you are you just, like, picking up lots of grievances? Are are are is there, you know, strife in your13:57 home, your marriage, your kids? Are you living in sin? Are are you, you know you know you know sleeping with your boyfriend girlfriend, you're not married? Are you are you having an an adulterous affair?14:09 Are you, you know, what whatever the things are that we need to lay down and instead prepare for for Jesus' coming. You know, what is he gonna find? Is he is he gonna14:21 come and find us in these ways? What we don't we don't know what his his mercy barometer is in those situations. Like, if he even if you're saved, but you're backslidden and he finds you in14:33 those, I I would never wanna chance those things. I know that nobody's perfect and we all fall short of God's glory, but he also knows if you mean it. Like, you can't sin, repent, sin, repent, like, say I'm sorry and14:44 then go do the same thing tomorrow, willing, knowing, and thinking that you have all this grace because that's wrong. You know, we he because he knows your heart in that. He knows when you don't mean it and you want to14:56 do better, but we have to be on the right side of these things. We have to be so ready and prepared. We have to have oil in our lamp. The Bible says, buy the oil and sell it not.15:08 And sell it not means, you know, don't trade it, don't don't give the Holy Spirit away with your sin and with the things that you're doing in your life that could cause you to stray away from God. This is so important15:20 what we're talking about today.15:22 It is. And and and, you know, I mean, there are people in church, and they think everything's fine with God. We need to the Bible says examine yourself. That's15:34 me included. Examine yourself and see if you are in the faith. So in in and so make sure that you are in the faith.15:45 Ask the Lord. The Holy Spirit will speak to you and tell you what to do and what you need to do and and and ask the Holy Spirit, convict my heart. Yeah.15:57 Convict my heart. Break my heart for what breaks yours. Give me a burden for souls. Give me a burden for the people around me. You know, a word that I've never16:09 really noticed in the Bible that I've noticed this this last week is, the word dissipation. And so I'm looking it up, and it's just killing time. Yeah. So many Christians, it's kind of16:21 like Christianity has become what not to do, and so you're just killing time. God says that who are his children? They are16:32 those who obey him. Yes. We're not just to be killing time waiting for, you know, that holy clock to happen. We need to be saying come quickly, Lord Jesus. And as16:44 we're crying out to God and saying come quickly, Lord Jesus, we're making sure other people are ready. Revival. We're not just laissez faire just walking through life nonchalantly.16:57 We are walking through life with a purpose. You are God's holy pilgrim. You are sojourning through this earth. You are like a17:08 vapor. So this life is just like that. So it doesn't matter if you get embarrassed because you had to witness to somebody. Who cares what people think about us? Let's make sure17:20 people are saved. And if they don't like you after that, so be it. But you know what? You will have obeyed God. When God tells you to do something, do it. Yes. And I don't care17:32 how long you've been saved, You can still miss those times. And when we come back, we'll talk more about that.17:39 This past year has been 1 of the hardest in MyPillow's history. It's because of you that we're making it through.

From all of us here at MyPillow Thanks, Rebecca.18:40 Welcome back to Grace Grace with Nina and Michelle, and we're talking about how there's gonna be18:45 a time when the door is shut. And I just read that scripture, but the scripture goes on, and it says when it says that the door was shut, it says afterwards the other virgins came18:57 also saying, Lord, open the door to us. But he answered, truly I say to you, I do not know you. Watch therefore, for you know neither the19:09 day or the hour. Can you imagine? Because the Bible does say you'll prophesy, you'll do all these things, like so if you think you got it in the bag, if you're what are you doing those things19:20 for? You know, we like you said, is somebody gonna get mad, or you're gonna worry, is somebody gonna get canceled, which we've been for preaching the gospel for on all I don't care. I don't care who's I serve an audience19:32 of 1, and I all I care is that I haven't grieved the Holy Spirit, that Jesus I'm doing all I know to do. I know that we are preaching to ourselves because we fall19:44 short every single day, but I I just hunger and thirst, we do. I we are both like that where we in the morning, I just can't wait to get in my Bible. My19:56 day is if I don't get my time in, it's just not the same. It is just not the same. And and so, you know, I'd I've got sermons going on all the time because faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of the20:08 Lord. It's, you know, sermons of of pastors and people that I really, really trust that are preaching the whole gospel, and and so there's so many ways to get the Bible into your spirit, into your heart,20:20 and be prepared and be ready, and and lay down these things that are besetting you. You know, do you just do you ever just think about little things that you don't think are big things, but like, but unforgiveness,20:32 which is so huge and it's been a big thing for me, you know.20:36 Oh, it says if we don't forgive, he won't forgive us. Exactly. That's so scary. I I'm I'm convicted as we're talking about it, you know, like, about the whole thing. You know? That's20:48 why the Lord wants us to constantly be examining ourselves.20:53 Yes.20:53 Not so much that we don't that we it renders us ineffective. God is not saying we need to be perfect to step out in faith, but we do need to make sure that we're right with the Lord21:05 and that we're having a personal relationship with him. You know, just like that door is shut, the best way to get a hold of God is to shut the door21:17 and close everybody else out except for you and God. And make sure you have that personal relationship with God because that's when, you know,21:30 he he comes down. The Bible says his name is as ointment poured forth. There's that ointment. There's that oil. You know, that that Holy Spirit will sit21:42 there and praise the Lord until you stir up those gifts of the Holy Spirit. And and I have been, really examining, like, you know,21:53 the the the 7 churches in Revelations. And the 1 that scares me half to death is, the church at Sardis where it says, I know your works.22:05 It looks like you're alive, but you are really dead. That means no oil. That means you are doing works, and you are not tapped in22:17 to the Holy Spirit really. So make sure that in all your activity that and I'm making sure too that I'm tapped in, that I22:29 am, I have a personal relationship with the Lord, that I'm crying out, that God will fill me full of his holy spirit, that I will fulfill all the purposes that he has for me Yes.22:41 That that that I will walk in his ways and that I will please the lord in everything that I do. And it says let the the meditation22:54 of my heart and the words of my mouth be acceptable in your sight. Make sure there's no unforgiveness. I don't care what they did to us. We have to23:05 forgive. There are a lot of things that happen to people. You and me both have had things that23:13 are crazy. But we don't mean that you go back if someone's like hurting you or anything like Or Yeah. It's it's you just forgive them in your heart, and they've23:24 moved on. They don't even know what kind of havoc they're wreaking in your life by you bringing it up in your mind all the time, the devil bringing it up. So it's you just forgiving them. And again, 7023:36 times 7 a day, the Bible says. And what does that mean? It's because the devil might bring it up that many times. But we've talked about this. You can ask the Holy Spirit to help you. Help me forgive. Help me to23:48 walk in love. Help me to be to to to be like Jesus is on Earth, which is what he says that we are to be. And so if we need all of24:00 us need to look more like Jesus and represent Jesus, and we can do the hard things because Jesus has already died for us to be able to have that24:12 grace to do these hard things. And so, you know, even it's like sometimes I have this laundry list where I have to just bring these faces up before my eyes and say I forgive them and Lord bless24:23 them and I forgive them. And it's so hard. I'm not telling you it's easy because sometimes it's like, but you you do it because it's what I know is so important because it24:35 frees me. It frees us up to have that freedom and to live that life that Christ has died for us to have. It's so important. The door is gonna be shut, and we're gonna pray here in a24:47 minute because we have you have to have a chance to know Jesus and to to to make sure that you are ready. We don't we're responsible, I feel like. God's given us a platform,24:59 so we want to make sure that people know.25:02 We want to make sure you know, and then afterwards we want to make sure that you you are truly discipled Yes. In Christ. Yes. You're flowing in that oil that he's talking about. So let's just pray right25:14 now. Lord, we thank you. We love you, Lord. We we give you our entire lives. Lord, right now, I just ask everybody that's watching or listening,Living a Life of Faith and Forgiveness 25:25 and unless you're driving, just hold up your hands and and just receive the oil of the Holy Spirit. Jesus, we make you Lord. We ask you for a spirit25:37 that is willing to obey you when you speak to us. We ask that we would hear your voice like we have never heard before. We ask you, God, that when it's time and you25:49 call us, Lord, that we're ready with our oil. We thank you, Lord. We praise you, and we say come quickly, Lord Jesus, and bring, millions and26:01 millions, Lord, billions and billions of people with us. In Jesus' name.26:06 Amen. Amen. Powerful.
