Will You Be Expecting Him When He Comes?
by lareina morgan
Jesus already said in His word that He will come back to get us, and that He will protect us from the coming storm that everyone in their hearts know is coming: "...Since you have kept my command to endure patiently, I will also keep you from the hour of trial that is going to come on the whole world to test the inhabitants of the earth..." (Revelation 3:10) I am looking forward to His coming, because the human race has tried desperately for thousands of years to go its own way with very little positive results to claim before the throne of God. We have been tested over the years by own decisions to rebel and do our own thing, and the consequences have been heavy, but there is still a time of testing to come, for those who do not or will not believe in our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, and this is a test that man's society will not survive: For the Lord himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and with the trumpet call of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and are left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore encourage one another with these words. (Thessalonians 4:16-18) I believe that He will take His church out of harm's way when He comes, for He has to judge satan and his demons and the wicked ones, the ones who would not come to him for salvation and healing. My Lord is a loving and caring God, tender to His children, His little ones, but He will have no tolerance in that day for the wicked, for the ones who refused to believe in Him and in His Son, Jesus Christ, for those who cursed His name and for those who tried to destroy His Word and His people. He is a kind and giving God, but He is also a Just God; He believes in Justice, so He will judge those who have not lived by His word or by His standards.
“But in those days, following that distress, “ ‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’ “At that time people will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory. And he will send his angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of the heavens." (Mark 13-24-27) We need to be aware of all of the signs around us, and give God the benefit of the doubt. We all need to act as if He will be kind and generous to us all, to those who have believed in Him and loved Him, and that He will protect His own. I choose to believe that He will come and take His church away so that He can judge the rebels and the transgressors that believe that the earth is theirs, and that there is no penalty for the evil things that they have done. Please don't take this message for granted, trust in the Lord and in His ability to see you through every trial and circumstance, for He loves you and He cares about you!
