Matthew 24:50
The suddenness of the coming of the Lord is a part of the judgement of God. His wrath will come as in a moment. This is His design and plan for what He will do. For those who are already prepared for the program of the Christ, this is no problem, but for the rest it is a fear. Such is the import of prophecy. It is here to warn us to be prepared ahead of time. It is not a blow-by-blow of all that will happen and when. Jesus has no intention of revealing every detail to us. Instead, His words are meant to cause action now so that we may be prepared then.
Bible Reading: Psalm 96:1-102:28
Scripture Memory: James 3:12 “Can a fig tree, my brethren, bear olive berries? either a vine, figs? so can no fountain both yield salt water and fresh.”
Prayer: Heavenly Father, You are so holy! Your righteousness shines throughout history as an amazing testimony to Your faithfulness. Any honor and truth and justice that may be found in our lives is from You. You are the Inspiration, Source, and Authority behind all righteousness in our lives. We cannot be ‘good’ without You. It is not even possible. You are a Light shining in the dark night of sin. Your Lamb shines forth before us showing the way of salvation that He has purchased by His own blood. Jesus is the Preeminent One! He is above and beyond and over all things. He has the dominion over the earth. We may live as men and women in His kingdom only. Without Him we are but impostors in this world. Like the devil, we are foreign to the way of things as they should be if we are devoid of Christ. He is our lifeline! He is our existence! He is our only hope! Thank You, Father, for The Christ! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Prayer Requests: Pray for the peace of Jerusalem. Pray for the lost. Pray for many who are diseased in third-world nations.
