Watchfulness and Readiness for Christ's Return — W.F. Kumuyi

Amen. Praise the lord. Amen. What day, what time, what year to watch. Now, he tells us in verse twenty-eight. And then he says, you see and know of your upon. Very near the time of his coming. He has come away and now he calls us to watchfulness again.

He calls us for readiness again. In versatile form. And take heed to yourselves. Lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with suffoating. And drunkenness. And the cares of this life. So that they come upon you on a ways for as a snare.

It shall come on all them that dwell on the face of the earth. What she therefore. What she therefore. What she therefore. And pray always that he may be accounted worthy to escape all the sins that shall come to pass and to stand before the son of man.

I pray that on that day when the saints stand before the lord, when he comes, you'll be ready, you'll be ready, we'll stand before him all together in Jesus name. We're looking at this message, watchfulness, and readiness for Christ's return.

The Revelation, Readiness, and Remembrance of Christ’s Return

On a three subtitles. Number one, the revelation. The revelation. He reveals the truth unto us. He reveals to us that he's coming again. The revelation. Number two is the readiness. The readiness. If he if he's revealed that he's coming again.

If it is certain that he's coming again. What do you do? How do you get ready? How do you prepare? So that you will not miss out on that day. The readiness and then number three is the remembrance. There's something to remember.

And the lord Jesus Christ said that over and over. Remember, remember, remember. Because if we don't remember, we'll not take into account. Everything he has said. And therefore he calls us to remembrance and readiness and watchfulness.

Number one, revelation, the revelation of Christ's return. The revelation of Christ's return. Number two, readiness for the church's rapture. The rapture of the church is going to take place. The dead in Christ shall rise.

And we which are alive will be caught up together with them to meet the lord in the air. And we need to be ready for that readiness for the church's rapture. And then number three, remembering with constant recommitment as we remember.

As we remember, he said he's coming again. As we remember, these are the signs that he gave. As we remember, what other people, eh, other people were not able to get ready. And their own time, they miss what they should have got.

As we remember that, you recommit yourself constantly. Remembering with constant recommitment. Number one, the revelation of Christ's return. Jesus spoke about his return. And he spoke about that return so many times and in such a very definite way that a real believer in the scripture cannot miss it.

Jesus’ Revelation of His Return

We're looking at Matthew chapter twenty-six. Matthew chapter twenty-six, eh, Jesus Christ was before his accusers. And the chief priest, eh, the high priest asked him, and even put him under an oath to say whether he was a son of God or not.

Let's look at the answer of the lord Jesus Christ. Matthew chapter twenty-six. Reading there from verse sixty four. Jesus says, unto him, thou hast said, and nevertheless I say unto you, hereafter shall you see the son of man sitting on the right hand of power and coming in the clouds of heaven.

There's a lot in that verse, you know, at this time, Jesus Christ had been betrayed by the traitor. By Judas Iscariot. And he's been betrayed into the hands of these people that were going to take the lord Jesus Christ and crucify him.

He was sure about that crucifixion. He had spoken about that a lot of times. He was sure about his death. He had spoken about that too. He knew he would die. And yet he said, that I say certainly, assuredly, unto you, hereafter, ye shall see the son of man sitting on the right hand of power and coming in the clouds of heaven.

What is, what was he saying there? He said, I know you'll crucify me. I know you'll put me to death. I know I'll die. I know I'll be buried. But I'm going to rise again. On the third day, I will rise again.

And then when I rise, I assure myself to my disciples that they may know that resurrection is for real. And then after that, I will ascend to heaven. But my coming back is very definite. And when I come back, I'll not be coming back as a somebody who's humiliated.

I'll be coming back to reign. And he says, you'll see the son of man, he'll be sitting on the right hand of power. That shows that he was certain he was coming again. Even before he went to that crucifixion to the cross, he was talking certainly, assuredly, about his coming again.

And then he said, he'll be coming again in the clouds of heaven. That's the revelation he gave concerning his coming. We're looking at Mark chapter thirteen. Mark chapter thirteen. Verse twenty-four.

For a believer in the Lord Jesus Christ, someone who believes the words of the Lord Jesus Christ, there's no doubt, no shadow of doubt in your mind. That Christ is coming again. For those who believe the scriptures and the scriptures of the prophets from the Old Testament, even to the New Testament, there is no doubt about it in your mind, Jesus is coming again.

And for those who believe the testimony of all the all the witnesses in the scriptures, there's no doubt at all that Jesus Christ is coming again. In Mark chapter thirteen, reading from verse twenty-four, Mark thirteen, verse twenty-four, he tells us, but in those days, after the tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken, and then, and then, and then shall they see the Son of Man coming in the clouds, coming in the clouds with great power and glory.

That has the certainty. It's very definite what Jesus said. He said, yes, there'll be the great tribulation, then the Son of Man will come and come again. He says he'll come in, he'll be coming in the clouds with great power and great glory.

And then shall he send his angels and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the north and the east and the south and the west, and he says, for of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven.

Now learn a parable of the victory. When a branch is set tender and put forth leaves, you know that summer is near. So ye in like manner when you see these things come to pass, you know that it is near even at the door.

Verily I say unto you that this generation shall not pass till all these things be fulfilled. He's coming, very definitely he's coming again. He spoke to his own disciples and he said he'll be coming for them in John chapter 14.

John chapter 14. As we read all this, look at Matthew and he says he'll come again. Look at Mark, he's coming again. Look at Luke, he's coming again. And John the beloved is reporting to us and is reminding us that Jesus said he's coming again.

When we're talking about the coming of the Lord, the coming is in two phases, two sides. Number one, he'll come for the church. That will be before the great tribulation. He'll come for the church. The church will be taken away and then after seven years of the great tribulation, he'll come again now to establish his millennial kingdom and then the eyes will see him at that time.

Christ’s Coming for the Church

Let's look at the time of the rapture now for his coming, coming for the church. John chapter 14 verse 1. Let not your heart be troubled, your heart will not be troubled. I said your heart will not be troubled.

You believe in God, you believe, believe also in me. You believe in God, God almighty, the God who has set all the plan and he said this is what is going to happen and God says, I am God, I change not.

And because I change not, that's why the people of God are not consumed. He says he's coming again and he says believe also in me. Every word I have said, everything is going to come to fulfillment. Everything is going to be fulfilled.

Heaven and earth may pass away but my word shall not pass away. He says in my father's house are many mansions if it were not so, I would have told you, I go to prepare a place for you. I go to prepare a place for you.

I pray that that you there will be you in front of me here in Jesus name. He said I go, he said I'm going. He had not even died at that time but he said I'm not going to just just die and then you'll forget and you'll forget only about me but I go to prepare a place for you and he said if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again.

That talks about number one is resurrection. He said I am going. How was he going to go? He was going to go by the way of the cross. He'll be crucified. He will die. He will be buried yet he will rise again.

That's why he said I go to prepare a place. He will ascend to heaven and when he ascends to heaven, then he will stay there for some time, for some years. He'll be preparing places for you for me and for all believers and he said I will come again and receive you unto myself so that where I am there, you may be also.

You'll be there in Jesus name. Eventually you know it was after this time was betrayed. After this time he was killed. After this time he died. After this time he was buried. After this time he rose again and when he rose again he appeared to his soon disciples and he revealed himself unto them and there was no doubt it was the same Jesus.

Look at Acts of the Apostles chapter one. Acts of the Apostles chapter one. It says in verse two chapter one verse two. Until the day in which he was taken up after he had after he threw the holy ghost at giving commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen to whom also he showed himself alive.

After his that's after he rose from there. After his passion by many fallible proofs being seen of them forty days and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God and eventually after he had spoken to them.

Look at verse nine and when he had spoken these things while they beheld he was taken up and a cloud received him out of their sight. You see that? He had risen from the dead and he showed them by many fallible proofs they couldn't miss this.

The same Christ. Our master. Our Lord. Our teacher. And the one who has died for us to save us. He rose from the dead and we can see it. When he rose from the dead he appeared to his own disciples. Thomas was not there and then he told Thomas to say do you know that Jesus Christ has risen from the dead?

He said no I'm not going to believe that except I see the print of the nails in his hand and the following week Jesus Christ appeared again unto the disciples and said Thomas come in here and believe and do not be doubtful and don't be doubting look at the nail prints and look at the nail prints on my side and Thomas said my Lord and my God and Jesus said Thomas you have believed because you have seen but blessed are those who have not seen but have believed.

And then after everybody was very sure in fact at a particular time to more than five hundred at the same time he revealed himself unto these disciples after the whole thing. Now when he has spoken these things while they beheld he was sticking up and a cloud received him out of their sight.

Verse 10. And then and while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up behold two men stood by them in white apparel which also said ye men of Galilee why stand ye gazing up into heaven. They same Jesus praise the Lord.

I said praise the Lord. They same Jesus the same one that was born of virgin Mary. They same Jesus the same one that went about being good healing all that were oppressed of the devil. They same Jesus the same one that was betrayed and crucified and hung on the cross.

They same Jesus the one that died and was buried. They same Jesus that same one that rose up the Sunday. They same Jesus who had disappeared unto you and showed himself unto you by many infallible proofs.

They same Jesus that you see going up now. This same Jesus which is taking all from you into heaven shall so come in like manner shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven that tells us.

Jesus said it. The angels said it. These two angels appeared and they said he's coming again. He's coming again. He's coming again. You better get ready and better get prepared because that Jesus he is coming again he will come.

And when he comes he'll find you ready. He'll find you watching. Let's look at 1 Thessalonians chapter 4. 1 Thessalonians chapter 4. Where the revelation of the very fact that he's coming for the church and the rapture.

And then after that he's coming for the rest of the world. And you will see him in 1 Thessalonians chapter 4 reading here from verse 13. But I would not have you to be ignorant brethren concerning them which are asleep that she sorrow not even as others which have no hope.

For if we believe and thank God I believe I say thank God I believe I say thank God I believe. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

For this will say unto you by the word of the Lord. This is not the opinions of enough man. This is not just congesture by a man. This is not philosophy by a philosopher. This is not just a make believe by somebody that just wants to tell us that Christ is coming again.

This is what we say unto you by the word of the Lord that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord see that unto the coming of the Lord. Here is the inspiration of the Spirit of God revealing unto Paul the apostle that Jesus is coming again to the coming of the Lord shall not prevent shall not hinder them which are asleep for the Lord himself the Lord himself the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout and with the voice of the archangel and with the trump of God and the dead in Christ shall rise for us.

Then we which are alive we which are alive who are those people. We which are alive praise the Lord. You'll make it in Jesus name. The Lord will take care of you. He'll give you all the grace necessary all the enablement necessary.

You'll be ready in Jesus name. Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air and so and so and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Where for comfort one another with these words he's coming again.

I said he's coming again. He said so and he will fulfill his word before us with us in our sight in Jesus name. Revelation. I'm reading from Revelation chapter one. Revelation chapter one. We're looking at verses seven and eight.

Revelation chapter one. Behold he cometh. He cometh with the clouds and every eye shall see him. And they also which peers to him and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him even so amen. He said behold he cometh.

He cometh with the clouds. He said that before he left this world he said that while he was before the high priest now he's going to heaven and from heaven he's sending the message back again and he said behold he cometh.

He tells us in verse eight I am alpha. I am omega. The beginning and the ending says the Lord which is and which was and which is to come. The almighty look at Revelation chapter sixteen. Verse fifteen.

Revelation chapter sixteen. And we're reading there from verse fifteen. It tells us very pointedly and very clearly without any shadow of doubt that he is coming again. Revelation chapter sixteen. Verse fifteen.

Behold I come. Behold I come. This is the Lord Jesus Christ again assuring us. He's speaking from glory he's speaking from heaven and he says behold I come. I come as received. That means I'll come suddenly.

I'll come when the rest of the world will be sleeping. But then those of us who are hearts are weak were the bride of Christ. We're expecting his return. And because we're expecting his return we're awake and we're saying oh Lord come.

Oh Lord come. But for the people of the world it will be so sudden. It will be like he came as a thief. Behold I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watcheth and keepeth his garments unless he walk naked and deceit his shame.

Revelation chapter twenty-two. Revelation twenty-two. The very last chapter of the Bible. And the Bible couldn't even be concluded until it speaks again about the coming of the Lord about the very fact that he will come.

Revelation chapter twenty-two. Verse seven. Behold I come. Behold I come quickly. Behold I come quickly. Blessed is he that keepeth the sins of the prophecy of this book. The Lord is coming again. I said the Lord is coming again.

It's so sudden it's so sure. And I pray that you and I all of us will be ready in Jesus name. Point number two. Now readiness for the church's rapture. Readiness for the church's rapture. As we're talking about the coming of the Lord the return of the Lord.

Readiness for the Church’s Rapture

Number one. He's going to return. He'll return once again. He'll return for the church for his own people. We read this before let me read this again to give you reassurance in John chapter fourteen. John chapter fourteen.

And see what Jesus Christ said concerning his return his return for the church. It says in John chapter fourteen. Reading there from verse one he tells us let not your heart be troubled when you see all the things happening in the world all the volcanoes and all the storms and all the disasters and everything.

It's like you know you'll see if this is coming now they're going to wipe away the whole world. When you see one nation rising against another nation when you see this powerful nation against this other powerful nation and it's like there's explosion everywhere.

And when you open the pages of the papers you read this and read this and read that you're likely to be troubled. But the Lord said don't allow your heart to be troubled. Let not your heart be troubled.

You believe in God believe also in me. It's a bad place before the child is born. It's a bad place before this whole world will see the coming of the Lord. Something good is going to come out of all these commotions and all these conflicts that you see that's why he says now in my father's house are many mansions.

If it were not so I would have told you I go to prepare a place for you it's going to prepare a place for you. I said it's going to prepare a place for you and while it's preparing that place for you are preparing yourself for that place so that everything will match together if I go and if I go and prepare a place for you I will come again I will come again I will come again after preparing that place for you and receive you unto I said to myself, that's where I am, where I am, where you see now.

I said, where you see now? You know, there are some people that say that there's no other heaven that this is this world, this dusty place, they're going to live forever and ever. I'm not going to grow, they might lead them to that but I'm going to the other side.

I said, I'm going to the other side. I bought you, will you be there? I said, will you be there? God is preparing, Christ is preparing a place. Will you be there? Yes, I will be there. Your sins are forgiven.

Your sins are taken away. He's preparing you and preparing the place for you. He'll match everything. You'll be there in Jesus name. So that where I am there, you may be also is coming but he wants us to be ready.

Let's look at first Corinthians chapter fifteen. First Corinthians chapter fifteen and I'm reading there from verse fifty-one. First Corinthians fifteen. Reading from verse fifty-one. It says in verse sixty-one, behold, I show you a mystery.

A mystery. Because not many people know this. It is hidden away from them. Behold, I show you a mystery. We shall not all sleep but we shall all be changed. In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump, then he says, for the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible.

And we, not them, and we, not just them, and we, thank God, I'm there, you are there, and we shall be changed. It will happen in Jesus name. For this corruptible must put on incorruption. And this mortal must put on immortality.

So when the corruptible shall I put on incorruption, and this mortal shall I put on immortality, there shall be brought to pass the sin that is written, death is swallowed up in victory. Oh death, where is thy sting?

Oh grave, where is the victory? The sting of death is seen. And the strength of sin is the law. God thanks be to God which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. Is this therefore, is this therefore, because it's coming again, therefore, because we're going to be changed, therefore, because it's going to take us to that place, a home above, and it's going to give us reward, according to the work we have done.

Is this therefore, my beloved brethren, be you steadfast, immovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, for as much as she know, that your labor is not in vain in the Lord, your labor will not be in vain in Jesus name.

Now, he tells us, we need to get ready, we need to get prepared. In fact, he said in Matthew chapter Matthew chapter twenty-four. Matthew chapter twenty-four, reading from verse forty-two. Matthew twenty-four, reading from verse forty-two, readiness, readiness, readiness for the church's rapture.

Readiness for the church's rapture. Before the great revolution strikes, this world Christ will come. He'll come for the sins. He'll come for the church. And he wants us to be ready. He tells us in a a Matthew chapter twenty-four, verse forty-two.

Watch ye therefore, for ye know not what hour your Lord does come. It's your Lord, it's your Lord. You are born again, it's your Lord. You are saved, it's your Lord. You are washed in the blood of the Lamb, it's your Lord.

You are a believer in Christ, you are a disciple of Christ, you are a follower of Christ, he is your Lord. But all the same, being ready is not automatic. You must watch, you must watch, you must pray, and you must resist everything that will make you, that will make your heart to be glued to this world so that you will not remember when that is coming.

It says, but know this, that if they, if the good man of the house had known in what hour, in what in what watch, the thief will come. He would have watched and would not have suffered, would not have permitted his house to be broken up.

Therefore, therefore, therefore, be ye also ready. For in such an hour as ye think not, the Son of Man cometh. It says, therefore, be ye also ready. Then he goes to the next chapter, chapter 25, and he tells us that there will be some people who will not be ready.

There will be some people who will not be ready. That, that, that is the reason for telling, for giving us this parable. In chapter twenty-five, reading from verse one, if readiness is automatic, if you don't need to preach about it, I'm a child of God, every child of God will be ready, then there's no need for preaching.

If everybody is going to be ready, whether they, you know, keep up themselves according to the word of God or not, whether they are praying or not, whether they are watchful or not, whether they are resisting temptation or not, if the readiness is automatic, there's no need for a parable.

There's no need for preaching. There's no need for prayer. There's no need to examine ourselves. There's no need to remind ourselves that we must be ready. But it's because the readiness is not automatic.

You have something to do. As a child of God, yes, the grace is there. Yes, the power of the Holy Ghost is there. Yes, all the enablement is there. But we need to make use of all those provisions of the Lord so that we can be ready.

And thank God you will be ready. I said, thank God you will be ready. My father said in Matthew chapter twenty-five verse one. Then shall the kingdom of heaven be likened unto ten virgins which took their lambs and went forth to meet the bridegroom.

And five of them were wise and five were foolish. Five were wise, five were foolish. The foolish ones were virgins too. But the wise ones were also virgins. You see, it's talking about the whole church, the visible church.

A part will be wise, a part will be watchful, a part will be reading the word, a part will be aligning their their lives to the word of God, a part will be examining themselves, a part will just be not challenged, a part will be not caring, a part will just feel that well it's coming, it's coming, it's coming for everybody and I'll be ready anyhow.

They will not watch and they will be the foolish ones. Look at verse three. It says they that were foolish took their lambs and it took no oil with them. They took no oil with them. They didn't prepare for the coming of the Lord.

It says for the wise took oil in their vessels with their lambs. And while the bridegroom tarrich, they all slumbered and slaved. And at midnight, there was a cry made, behold, the bridegroom cometh. Go ye out to meet him.

Then all those virgins ten of them arose and he trimmed their lambs and the foolish said unto the wise, give us of your oil. They were not ready. Give us of your oil. They didn't have enough grace, enough oil.

Give us of your oil. They didn't have enough light to show them eh to see them through all through the night. Give us of your oil for our lambs are gone out. I pray your lambs will not go out. When somebody begin, one someone forgets how to pray, its light will go out.

When somebody forgets how to read the word of God, his light will go out. When somebody will forget how to get the grace of God, grace upon grace. That person, his light will go out. When somebody forgets about developing his faith, his light will go out.

When somebody forgets about fellowshipping, what they're saying. So that we can encourage each other. Iron sharpness iron. When somebody forgets that the lord is coming. I need to get ready. Islam will go out.

It'll be one of the foolish virgins. I will not be foolish. I said I will not be foolish. It is said alarms are gone out. But the wise answer saying not so. Let there be not enough for us and you. The grace I have is only is only enough for me.

That grace is not is not enough for you and I. That means you must get the grace yourself. The salvation I have or is only sufficient for me. I cannot share that salvation with you. Yes I can tell you how to go to the cross.

How to repent. How to turn around. How to believe on the lord Jesus Christ. How to have that salvation for yourself. But the one I have is only sufficient for me. The sanctification, the holiness, the righteousness, the purity of heart I have is only sufficient for me.

I cannot say I've got so much sanctification. Can I share part of it with you? You don't have to pray for yourself. You are to seek the lord for yourself. For the peace with all men and holiness without which no man shall see the lord.

That holiness I have is only sufficient, just sufficient for me. We cannot share it. The holy ghost baptism I have, I cannot share that with you. I can tell you, if anyone is desirous and thirsty, let him come unto me and drink and then because as the scripture has said, out of your innermost being your belly shall flow rivers of living water.

I can tell you, the promise is unto you and to your children and to many as many as are called of the lord. But I cannot say okay, I've got so much of that baptism. Can I give you a little? The oil we have is sufficient just for ourselves.

That's why the wise virgin said not so. Let there be, there be not enough for us and you. But go rather to them that sell and buy for yourselves. Look at verse ten, while they went, while they went to buy, the bridegroom came and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage and the door was shut.

Afterwards, this late commas, afterward came also the other virgins, the foolish virgins, those that were not ready, saying, lord, lord, open to us. But he answered and said, verily, I say unto you, I know you not.

I know you not. I know you not. You'll not hear such a sentence of the final day in Jesus name. When they could have prepared, didn't prepare. And when he could have repented, didn't repent. When he could have a kind of touched their oil.

They didn't do that. When you could have had more grace and more faith and more strength and more ability and more power so that they will live in the center of the will of God. Every day of their lives, they did not do that.

They were busy with other things. Now, at the time they came, it was too late for them. I pray that it will not be too late for you in Jesus name. In verse thirteen, watch therefore, watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour wherein the son of man cometh.

Readiness. That's very important. Readiness. Very important. Luke chapter twenty one again. Luke chapter twenty one. And he wants us to get ready. That's why he gives us a multiplied force from Matthew, from Mark, from Luke, from John, from everywhere.

Reminding us from the gospel, from the epistles, reminding us, get ready, get ready, get ready, because the Lord is coming, is coming again. In Luke chapter twenty-one, reading from verse thirty-four.

Luke chapter twenty-one, reading from verse thirty-four. And take heed to yourselves. Take heed to yourselves. It's in take care of yourselves. You know, there are some people, they don't take heed to themselves, they take heed for other people.

They watch over other people, they don't watch over themselves. They watch over the lives of other people. They don't watch over their own personal lives. It's like, you know, sometimes, we parents, we do that, and it's alright, it's alright.

We are watching over our children. We're taking care of their health, we're taking care of their morals, we're taking care of the education, we're taking care of everything and we're very meticulous about what happens to that child.

But we're not taking such care about ourselves. And there are times that happens in the family that the husband is taking care of the wife, is not watching over the wife, don't do this, don't do that way, and he's not watching over himself.

Other times, the wife is watching over the husband. You know, don't go that direction, don't go that direction, keep your salvation and keep your holiness, keep your righteousness, don't mess up your life, whatever, but that wife is not watching over herself.

Sometimes the pastor watching over members of the church, everybody sit right and stand right and say right and act right and do everything right and think right. But the pastor watching over others is not watching over himself.

Sometimes the members of the church, the members of the they are concerned about the leadership, they are concerned about their pastor. Our pastor must stand straight, our pastor must walk straight, our pastor must pray up, our pastor must make sure that he's living according to the word of God and that's good, that's good.

It's good to to to remind our pastors, they should live right but you watch over yourself as well. You are not watching over other people to the point, you forget that you yourself, you must watch over, watch over your life, watch over your character, watch over everything about you so that you will be ready, you'll be ready on that final day in Jesus name.

That's why Jesus said, take it, take it to yourselves. Let's at any time, let's at any time, at any time, you know, there are times we become intoxicated with the success at any time, you know, sometimes we just pass an exam and then we become so happy, I pass an exam and then you might go overboard.

Sometimes we've just gotten married and because of that marriage, you know, I'm in for the wedding and here is the, you know, wedding and here is the celebration and all that and at the reception, we forget ourselves and it says, at any time, sometimes, if somebody has died in the family and we say, I'm going to give him a decent burial and as we are trying to give the decent burial, we go overboard and then we bring worldliness into it and you say, watch over yourself less at any time.

Sometimes, it is when we are together like this and we are happy and we are rejoicing and we say, this is celebration time. Sometimes, in that celebration time, we go overboard. When we rejoice and then the joy, we bring the worldliness in but the lord is saying, let's at any time, your heart be overcharged with suffocating and drunkenness and the chaos of this life.
