Matthew 24:27
In other words, just as the lightning cannot be controlled, predicted, or totally prepared for, the time and manner of Jesus’ arrival will be out of our ability to forecast. We know about it what we need to know. And that is simply that we must be as prepared as possible before that day. Keep in mind here though, neither I nor Christ is referring to the rapture here. That will happen in the same way, unpredictably. But, there are signs that the second coming is drawing near, signs that serve as a reminder that both the sudden rapture and the sudden return of the Christ are drawing nigh. Be ready!
Bible Reading: Job 7:1-9:35
Scripture Memory: James 3:4 “Behold also the ships, which though they be so great, and are driven of fierce winds, yet are they turned about with a very small helm, withersoever the governor listeth.”
Prayer: Heavenly Father, we must never forget that, no matter how worried we might be, You are not the least bit anxious. You have never for a minute wavered or doubted Your own plan. Though it was a difficult way, it was the best way, and Your Christ stands ready to overcome the hoards of evil upon Your command. You are the glorious Lord God Almighty! None can change that! May this world understand that true Christians have no need to resist evil, for the hourglass of Your wrath is running low. Christ is the owner of this old world, and it is He that will make it over to His liking. Thank You for Jesus! In the name of the Lord Jesus Christ I pray and praise You, Amen.
Prayer Requests: Pray for my Dad. Pray for a couple preparing to travel as missionaries.
