The Ten Virgins

Jesus, I keep hearing you say to remember the 10 virgin.  The parable about virgins who took their lamps and went out to wait for their bridegroom.  Matthew 25

"Yes, remember the parable about the ten Virgins.  They represent the bride of Christ waiting patiently for her beloved.  As was the custom of their day they took vigil waiting for the arrival of their bridegroom to be announced.  They brought lamps with them as they did not know when the Bridegroom would come.  

The church today is living this parable.  They are waiting upon Christ's return.  The church is expectant because she knows the time is at hand but like the 10 Virgins she has become complacent.  My church today is sleeping as it is taking much longer than she thought.  

Some in the church have brought extra oil for their lamps so that they are ready but some have let their lamps go dark.  They have grown cold and have gone to sleep.  They have sold out to church traditions  and to the ways of the world - saying everything goes on as it did before.  They are like the Hebrews wandering in the wilderness longing for the days of Egyptian bondage.  However, I have MY REMNANT that have not given up hope - knowing that I AM coming and I AM coming for them.  

Which of these are you MY Beloved?  Which of these situation are you in today?  It was night in the parable - is it not also dark in your world today?  The bride groom was long in coming - has your wait also been long?  

Some of you are saying that you have been waiting most of your lives for the Son of Man to return!  Some are new to the wait.  What do I say to all of you?  Buy oil (the word / spirit) now while there is still some time.  Read the word and put it in your heart.  Get closer to ME as I draw ever closer to you.  Do not wait!  I will come suddenly and at a time you do not expect (Matt 24:44) - be like the five wise virgins.  Be ready to go into the marriage supper of the Lamb!  Behold I AM COMING!"
