Rapture and End Time Signs

There are many believers who don't have the awareness about the signs happening around them, in this scripture particularly about His coming to pick up the church.
They see but don't perceive, they hear but don't comprehend. It is not like they don't care about the rapture. As a matter of fact they are eager to know; but they don't have sensitivity and are not aware about the signs and the situations that are happening around them. For them, everything is just the same.

Why they become so dull?
Look at verse 38
"For just as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, [men] marrying and [women] being given in marriage, until the [very] day when Noah went into the ark"
This verse doesn't speak about people having dissipations. NO. This verse simply talks about the daily lives that we have, the habits we always do. We have patterns in our live that we tend to do. Unfortunately,this can be harmful for us and block our eyes from seeing things.
PAY ATTENTION to our lifestyle. What is it that we prioritize (somehow we are unaware that these things we put above God)? Our career? our spouse? our problems? our kids? ourselves?
Try to reflect,what is it that comes first in our mind once we finish the church service?
Be very careful. Those are the things that can block our eyes from being aware and we will become dull and don't have good sense about the end time signs.
Let us be changed and train ourselves to live for The Lord only. Let HIM becomes the focus and number one in our hearts above everything. Do not under estimate what seems like little things from God.

Remember, the people in Noah's time were "awaken" once the flood hit them and by then it was all too late.

Don't be like this example:
At church we are so on fire hearing great messages from God. Then after we go home, we curse people, we indulge in internet, in our problems and so on. We do so, because it's been our lifestyle and pattern.

If we keep doing like that, sooner or later we will become a believer who does not have the sensitivity at all. Things happen around us,we will consider them nothing special and "normal",but they are actually not.
Little things that we do,that is bad (bad here isn't necessarily about sins,but could also our habits that takes a lot of our time,that we lack of time for The Lord; bad here also talks about things that bind us such as: medicine,sleeping pills,etc) will have disastraous effect. Therefore,never compromise and don't let down your standard. We can't fool God.

Verse 40, 41
"At that time two men will be in the field; one will be taken and one will be left. Two women will be grinding at the hand mill; one will be taken and one will be left."
Rapture of the church will surely take place. This had come out from Jesus' teaching Himself. It was not from Paul or other disciples. But from The Lord Himself.

Be a person who possess an aware spirit and be a person who is ready to follow HIM at any costs. If God wants you to turn left,then you go left and so on. Own a heart that desires to obey wholeheartedly, then God will enable us to obey. Not by our might and strength,but HE enables us.

Verse 45
"Who then is the faithful, thoughtful, and wise servant, whom his master has put in charge of his household to give to the others the food and supplies at the proper time?"

If you are entrusted sheep under your care, FEED THEM WELL and APTLY. Therefore,don't preach or counsel out of your own strength and habit;but always ask The Holy Spirit what should you preach that God wants them to learn at that time?

Depend on God always. We don't have the strentgh to meet up His standard,but what God sees is not our ability,but a heart that is willing to be molded by HIM. Let's do our parts faithfully. By His Grace and Mercy.
