·
The
Nobleman told his servants to “Occupy (be usefully engaged) till I come”
·
After
His crucifixion Jesus returned to heaven and left us instructions to follow to
occupy our lives until His return
·
Moses
left the Israelites for a period of time to receive instructions from God, but
in his absence they did not “occupy” as God had instructed
·
Are
we occupying correctly while waiting for Jesus Christ to return, or are
we distracted like the Israelites of old?
·
Jesus
explained in the parable that God has given each of us a “commission” - each
has individual tasks assigned - which we should follow, and not fall short!
·
We
are exhorted to “occupy” by following the instructions in both the Old and New
Testaments, that we may be preserved wholly in spirit and soul and body and be
made immortal, without going through physical death, at our Saviour’s return.
Hymn 100: Daily Bread to Sustain Us
Message
“In thy name shall they rejoice
all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted. Ps 89:16
