Let's use today's devotional as a gentle reminder; Jesus is coming back again, are you ready for him? “Watch out! Don’t let your hearts be dulled by carousing and drunkenness, and by the worries of this life. Don’t let that day catch you unaware, like a trap. For that day will come upon everyone living on the earth. Keep alert at all times. And pray that you might be strong enough to escape these coming horrors and stand before the Son of Man.”
Luke 21:34-36 NLT. In these three verses, Jesus refers to both of his second comings; the rapture where he secretly comes to take the church home, and then his glorious final triumphant return where the whole world will see him come. The rapture is the one people will be unaware of and miss. Like a trap, that day will catch many carousing and living their lives however they choose. It is a day to stay alert on because it will come like a thief in the night. That day will also lead those who make it, to have escaped from the coming horrors through the 21 judgements coming upon the earth before Jesus' final return. My charge this morning; stay alert child of God, it is the Father's will to give you the kingdom. Be prayerful and keep your altar alive; live each day for Jesus and as if you would give account of that day. Watch out!
