Revelation 16:15 - “Behold, I am coming like a thief. Blessed is the one who stays awake and keeps his clothes, so that he will not walk about naked and men will not see his shame.”
Are we fully awake spiritually Have we cried out for wisdom and the fear of the Lord so that the day of the Lord will not take us unawares? While this speaks of the second coming of the Lord within context, we can certainly understand how the Lord is telling us to seek Him now while He may be found. There is a day coming in which it will be too late.
We must clothe ourselves with His righteousness and reject the rags of sin and folly. His coming is as certain as the words of John's prophecy. Whether the Lord tarries and we pass from this life to the next through death, or we see Him in the clouds, we must be ready. When He comes for us, either way, eternity will not give us a pass for further preparation.
