Jesus is coming and he expects us to be ready for his return. This prayer asks Jesus to make us and others ready for that day. If you believe Jesus is coming soon, start by praying this prayer, then make a point to live like he’s on his way. Help me get others thinking about the return of Christ by sharing this post and encouraging people to pray this prayer. 

Prayer

Jesus, I don’t know when You’re returning so prepare me right now. My mindset will be alert and my life will be restrained and disciplined. I’ll arm myself with faith and love. Because I’m alert, I’ll process every decision through the lens of salvation. By Your grace, I’ll build a personal culture that’s vigilant, attentive and filled with gratitude. My spiritual senses will be sharp. I refuse to lay down and let life pass me by. I’ll take advantage of every opportunity to expand Your kingdom. You’ve appointed me to live out Your purposes. I will do it and I’ll also encourage others to do it as well in Jesus name, amen. 

1 Thessalonians 5:1-11

Now, brothers and sisters, about times and dates we do not need to write to you, for you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. While people are saying, “Peace and safety,” destruction will come on them suddenly, as labor pains on a pregnant woman, and they will not escape.

But you, brothers and sisters, are not in darkness so that this day should surprise you like a thief. You are all children of the light and children of the day. We do not belong to the night or to the darkness. So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us be awake and sober. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who get drunk, get drunk at night. But since we belong to the day, let us be sober, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that, whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him. Therefore encourage one another and build each other up, just as in fact you are doing.
