S – This is why you are also to be ready, because the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not expect

Matthew 24:44 CSB

O – Commentary:

The limits of the Tribulation period are known to God, for the Seventieth Week of Daniel will have a definite starting time and a definite ending time. But the people living then will only know in generalities the limits of the time. Therefore watchfulness is important. If a person knows the approximate time a thief may come to break into his house, he takes precautions and prepares accordingly. Likewise believers in the Tribulation, who will be looking forward to the coming of the Lord of glory, should be alert. They will know generally, from the signs of the end, when He will return, but they will not know the exact time

“Matthew,” in The Bible Knowledge Commentary: An Exposition of the Scriptures

A – Jesus is coming again.  There is so much information and speculation on when, where, and how.  If we are ready for his return, than all of that isn’t the primary focus.  We should live our lives as if it were today.  Our hearts and lives would be in relationship with our Heavenly Father.

R – Heavenly Father, you hold the timeline of all things in your hands.  Help us to live our lives today that bring us into the strongest relationship with you.  Whether you return or not, we want to honor and please you in our hearts and actions today.
