The Bible frequently admonishes believers to remain alert to the spiritual realities around them, to the temptations of sin, and to the return of the Lord Jesus Christ.<br><br><b>Old Testament Context</b><br><br>The Old Testament often uses the imagery of a watchman to convey the idea of being alert. In <a href="/ezekiel/33-6.htm">Ezekiel 33:6</a>, the prophet is likened to a watchman who must sound the alarm to warn the people of impending danger: "But if the watchman sees the sword coming and does not blow the trumpet to warn the people and the sword comes and takes away a life, that man will be taken away in his iniquity, but I will hold the watchman accountable for his blood." This passage underscores the responsibility of being alert to spiritual and moral dangers.<br><br><b>New Testament Exhortations</b><br><br>The New Testament continues this theme, urging believers to remain spiritually vigilant. Jesus Himself warns His disciples in <a href="/matthew/26-41.htm">Matthew 26:41</a>, "Watch and pray so that you will not enter into temptation. For the spirit is willing, but the body is weak." Here, alertness is linked with prayer as a means of resisting temptation.<br><br>The Apostle Paul also emphasizes the importance of being alert in his epistles. In <a href="/1_corinthians/16-13.htm">1 Corinthians 16:13</a>, he writes, "Be on the alert. Stand firm in the faith. Be men of courage. Be strong." This exhortation is a call to spiritual readiness and steadfastness in the face of challenges.<br><br><b>Eschatological Alertness</b><br><br>Alertness is particularly significant in eschatological contexts, where believers are called to be watchful for the return of Christ. In <a href="/matthew/24-42.htm">Matthew 24:42</a>, Jesus instructs, "Therefore keep watch, because you do not know the day on which your Lord will come." This call to vigilance is a reminder of the unpredictable timing of the Second Coming and the need for constant readiness.<br><br>Similarly, in <a href="/1_thessalonians/5-6.htm">1 Thessalonians 5:6</a>, Paul writes, "So then, let us not sleep as the others do, but let us remain awake and sober." Here, alertness is contrasted with spiritual lethargy, urging believers to live in a state of preparedness for the Lord's return.<br><br><b>Spiritual Warfare</b><br><br>Alertness is also crucial in the context of spiritual warfare. In <a href="/1_peter/5-8.htm">1 Peter 5:8</a>, believers are warned, "Be sober-minded and alert. Your adversary the devil prowls around like a roaring lion, seeking someone to devour." This passage highlights the need for vigilance against the schemes of the devil, emphasizing the spiritual battle that Christians face.<br><br><b>Practical Implications</b><br><br>The biblical call to be alert has practical implications for the believer's daily life. It involves a conscious awareness of one's spiritual condition, a commitment to prayer, and a readiness to act in accordance with God's will. It also requires discernment to recognize and resist the subtle influences of the world and the flesh.<br><br>In summary, the biblical concept of alertness is a multifaceted exhortation to remain spiritually vigilant, morally upright, and ever-ready for the return of Christ. It is a call to live with an eternal perspective, fully aware of the spiritual realities that surround us.<a name="web" id="web"></a><div class="vheading2">Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary</div>1.
