Matthew 25:10 And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.
The five wise virgins, in Jesus' parable were so described because of their adequate preparation for the arrival of the groom: they took extra oil for their lamps.
The Bible says that the five foolish ones went without extra oil for their lamps and they missed the single event that they all waited for.
Brethren, do you have extra oil? This is a highly spiritual question. The extra oil is gotten in secret and hidden for the day opportunity arises.
It's the intimate oneness with Christ in the place of prayer. It's the sanctification of the believer who waits for the Master's return.
Yes, everyone is in church and we are all serving, but not everyone have the extra oil. One day, we shall all sleep, but the difference is not who is alive or death at the arrival of the Master.
The difference is not who has not bowed to idol before. The difference is not where we came from before we accepted to marry Jesus.
The difference is not in having the zeal and energy for activities. THE DIFFERENCE IS THE EXTRA OIL. The Master is coming for those with extra anointing, different from what is already spent.
He shall appear for those that have the Spirit of truth dwelling in them, even when they are sleeping.
Go for the extra oil, don't wait in canality. Don't take your intimacy with Christ as a joking matter. Don't play over the subject of abiding in the secret place of the Most High.
The Master seeks those with extra oil. The world is full of normal people that goes to church because everyone is going. Get your extra oil ready, for the Master shall appear unannounced.
Let's pray together.
Heavenly Father, thank you for the privilege to be candidates of the marriage super of the Lamb. Please help us to remain prepared, help us to maintain our extra oil, in Jesus name. Amen.
