FIRE SCRIPTURE: Matthew 25:1-13
1 “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps[a] and went to meet the bridegroom.[b] 2 Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. 3 For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, 4 but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. 5 As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept. 6 But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ 7 Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps.
8 And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ 9 But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ 10 And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. 11 Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ 12 But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ 13 Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.
MFM Daily Devotional 21 June 2025: MESSAGE
Preparation is a vital tool for success in life. In every endeavour of life, we must take the initial step of planning, which starts with preparation. It is within this context that the picture of what is to be done and the means of getting it done are put in place. Without adequate preparation and planning, a person is prepared to fail. The same applies to our heavenly race as Christians.
The Bible tells us that we are in this world but not of this world. This is a reminder that we have a final destination in eternity. The desire of God for His children is that we all end up in His bosom as one big family to start a new life with Him. However, to get there, we need to prepare. Beloved, are you prepared?
Today’s text reveals to us the benefits and consequences of preparation. Jesus Himself taught this parable to His disciples. It is a fact that the ten were virgins; all had their lamps, perhaps dressed the same way, with the same purpose to meet the Bridegroom. Again, they all slept but woke up suddenly at midnight to trim their lamps. Here comes the difference: the five wise virgins were well prepared, but the five foolish ones did not have enough oil in their lamps.
What a calamity! It was too late! There was nowhere to buy the oil at such an hour of the night. They resorted to borrowing from their mates (v. 8-9), but they also couldn’t give them so that they would not both run short of oil. But “while they went to buy”, alas! The bridegroom arrived, and the door was shut behind them. A great lesson to learn! The non-preparedness of the five foolish virgins caused them irreparable damage. They missed the Bridegroom they had been waiting for. They were not adequately prepared or perhaps underestimated His arrival.
Why should anyone fall into such an error? No excuse, beloved, keep the fire burning on your altar of prayer. Let the lamp of your life burn until the Master comes! Let your oil be enough and overflowing. Remember, no one knows when the Bridegroom is coming, but certainly, He is coming and will come suddenly! Get prepared; remain prepared, therefore, so that you do not miss Him!
