đź’Ą Join me today on the podcast (link below) as I exhort: If Jesus returns to earth during your lifetime, what do you want Him to find you doing?
As for me, I want to be found faithful. And I know as for you, you want to be found faithful! For each of us, it’s a matter first and foremost of whether or not we are born-again and Spirit-filled!
The second coming is the supreme hope of the Church. Lord Jesus promised that He would come back again.
“Do not let your heart be troubled (afraid, cowardly). Believe [confidently] in God and trust in Him, [have faith, hold on to it, rely on it, keep going and] believe also in Me. 2 In My Father’s house are many dwelling places. If it were not so, I would have told you, because I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back again and I will take you to Myself, so that where I am you may be also." (John 14:1-3)
In the waning days of His last week on earth, one of the things Jesus taught His disciples was to always be ready for His return. He had come in the flesh to die on the cross as the perfect sacrifice for our sins. He would be buried, yet in three days He would be raised from the dead and would ascend to God’s heavenly throne to both rule and serve as the believer’s great high priest. Then one day He would return as the victorious King to judge all of the earth’s inhabitants who have ever lived.
In Matthew 24:36-51, Lord Jesus laid out three crucial pieces of information about that inevitable Day:
First, no one on earth knows the precise day of Jesus’ return.
Second, everyone on earth needs to be ready for Jesus’ return at all times.
Third, believers are to be faithfully serving their Master—that is, carrying on His gospel mission to the world—until the day He returns. Jesus promised that the believer who is found “working when he comes will be rewarded” (Matt. 24:46).
Therefore, we must be eagerly awaiting His coming. But guess what? Are we really waiting for His return? Because with His return comes judgment! Are you sure you are ready to meet the Lord?
Amen! 🎯 REPENT and BELIEVE and TURN back to God!
