In this powerful episode of our Kingdom of God series, we explore the vital importance of preparing our hearts and living in a state of readiness for God's work in our lives. Through Jesus's parables of the faithful servant and the ten virgins, we discover what it truly means to be "ready" in God's kingdom.

• Guarding Your Heart - Why Scripture tells us to guard our hearts above all else, as from it spring the issues of life
• Jesus's Faithfulness - How Christ continues to intercede for the church at the Father's right hand
• Living Ready - The difference between having moments with God versus living in constant movement toward Him
• The Parable of the Faithful and Unfaithful Servants - What our actions reveal about where our treasure truly lies
• The Parable of the Ten Virgins - Being prepared with "oil" for when the Master returns
• Encountering Jesus in Others - How serving "the least of these" is serving Christ Himself

"Wherever your treasure is, there the desires of your heart will also be."

"Those who were ready went with Him" - Are you a factor in your Master's life?

"When you did it to one of the least of these my brothers and sisters, you were doing it to me."

• Ask yourself: What do I treasure? What consumes my thoughts and concerns?
• Move from having spiritual "moments" to living in constant movement toward God
• See every interaction with others as an opportunity to encounter and serve Jesus
• Stay watchful and prayerful, maintaining spiritual readiness daily

This episode challenges us to examine our hearts and ensure we're living as faithful servants who are ready for the Master's return - not tomorrow, not yesterday, but TODAY. Because today is the day of salvation, and the kingdom of God is both here and coming.
