“But the prudent took oil in their vessels with their lamps” (Matt. 25:4). “Look therefore carefully how you walk, not as unwise, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil” (Eph. 5:15-16). This week we begin a new series titled, "Being Watchful in Life and Faithful in Service,” with speaking from brother Mark Raabe on seeking first the kingdom of God by being the wise virgins who have oil in their vessels. This is part one of message three from a conference for working saints and families in the Mid-Atlantic region of the United States in November 2017.
