The Call to Watchfulness

v. 42: Jesus commands, “Therefore keep watch, because you do not know on what day your Lord will come.” The main lesson is to stay spiritually awake and alert. We don’t know when Jesus will return, so we must always be ready. Watching means living with expectation, being mindful of God’s priorities, and not letting ourselves drift into spiritual laziness or distraction (Matthew 24:42 ^a).
