October 29
“Of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son but only the Father. Take heed, watch and pray; for you do not know when the time is… And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!”
-MARK 13:32,33,37
-MARK 13:32,33,37
The Kingdom may be near, at hand, at the door, even within; but it has not come in its fullness until the King Himself returns. This is the sense in which Jesus calls upon us to watch and pray for the Kingdom to come. It is literally praying that the King will come into the fullness of His Kingdom – not merely within the heart of the individual believer, but in a tangible, visible, universal sense that brings about the full recovery of the Heavenly Order with Christ once more having the preeminence in all things.
