TODAY'S SCRIPTURE:
Matthew 25:1–13 - “Then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. [2] Five of them were foolish, and five were wise. [3] For when the foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them, [4] but the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. [5] As the bridegroom was delayed, they all became drowsy and slept. [6] But at midnight there was a cry, ‘Here is the bridegroom! Come out to meet him.’ [7] Then all those virgins rose and trimmed their lamps. [8] And the foolish said to the wise, ‘Give us some of your oil, for our lamps are going out.’ [9] But the wise answered, saying, ‘Since there will not be enough for us and for you, go rather to the dealers and buy for yourselves.’ [10] And while they were going to buy, the bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with him to the marriage feast, and the door was shut. [11] Afterward the other virgins came also, saying, ‘Lord, lord, open to us.’ [12] But he answered, ‘Truly, I say to you, I do not know you.’ [13] Watch therefore, for you know neither the day nor the hour.

| 0:00.0 | Well, hello there. Good afternoon. Good morning, good evening, good night, whatever time of day it is. Welcome to the morning mindset. We are here to get our minds aligned with the truth of God's word for this day. Today we are continuing our kingdom series looking through the gospel of Matthew |
| 0:22.3 | at every mention of the kingdom of God. And today we're talking about how we are required to be |
| 0:28.3 | faithful to the kingdom now. In our present day, we're going to be looking at Matthew 25 |
| 0:34.7 | verses 1 through 13. So get out your Bibles. Before we get there, |
| 0:38.6 | though, I'm going to ask you, when's the last time you have told somebody about the way |
| 0:42.9 | you're benefiting from listening to the morning mindset? Just think about it. The benefits you receive |
| 0:48.3 | others you know and love could receive. If you would just simply share it with some enthusiasm, please do that today |
| 0:55.8 | so that this message that's being proclaimed through the morning mindset can reach more and more |
| 1:01.6 | people. All right, before we begin to Matthew 25, 1 through 13, I ask you to pray with me |
| 1:08.6 | for God's help and understanding God's word. |

| 1:17.9 | scriptures to us and instruct us for our good and for your glory in Jesus' name. Amen. |
| 1:24.3 | Okay, Matthew 25, beginning in verse 1, is a series of parables that Jesus tells, and all of them |
| 1:31.5 | are meant to illustrate different aspects of this subject of the kingdom. So let's read in verse |
| 1:37.8 | number one. He says, then the kingdom of heaven will be like 10 virgins. Okay, pause for a moment. |
| 1:43.5 | Then, there's a timest stamp. He's talking about |
| 1:46.8 | a subject he's already brought up, which is the end of time when he is going to return and take |
| 1:54.6 | his people to himself and establish his kingdom forever. Okay, so he says, then the kingdom of heaven will be like ten virgins who took their |
| 2:03.3 | lamps and went to meet the bridegroom. Five of them were foolish and five were wise. For when the |
| 2:10.6 | foolish took their lamps, they took no oil with them. But the wise took flasks of oil with their lamps. |
| 2:19.6 | As the bridegroom was delayed, |
