The Church is described in Scripture as the bride of Christ, and the bride must prepare herself for the coming Bridegroom. This preparation involves holiness, faithfulness, obedience, and separation from the corruption of the world. We must not allow spiritual compromise to make us unprepared for His coming. Let our lives continually reflect our love and devotion to Christ. Scriptural Readings for the Day Revelation 19:7-8 (KJV) “7 Let us be glad and rejoice, and give honour to him: for the marriage of the Lamb is come, and his wife hath made herself ready. 8 And to her was granted that she should be arrayed in fine linen, clean and white: for the fine linen is the righteousness of saints.” Ephesians 5:25-27 (KJV) “25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it; 26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word, 27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.” 2 Corinthians 11:2 (KJV) “For I am jealous over you with godly jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ.” Prayer Lord Jesus, prepare me as part of Your bride for Your glorious appearing. Cleanse me from every impurity and help me to remain faithful, holy, and devoted to You. Amen.
