Waiting For the Return of Jesus Christ

Sometimes we look at all the troubling things that are going on in the world and we wonder what is going on.  We know that we live in a fallen and sinful world.  Satan is running around stirring up trouble because he knows that his days are numbered.  The devils' time is running out for one day soon the Lord Jesus Christ will descend from Heaven and establish the Kingdom of God upon this earth in full completion.

We believers in Christ Jesus need not to fear and worry about all that is going on around us.  Those things should concern us and cause us to draw nearer to the Lord and proclaim the gospel of Jesus Christ to as many people as we can, but we must not grow weary and afraid.  We need to lift up our heads for our redemption is drawing very near.  The Lord Jesus is coming back very soon friends.

We must be ready for that wonderful and terrible day.  It will be wonder for all of those who have repented of their sins and have trusted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior for they will enter into Heaven because their sins have been paid for by the shed blood of Jesus Christ.  We must place our faith in the Lord Jesus and what He accomplished for us on the Cross for our sins.  For those who are not ready when Jesus returns then it will be a very terrible day because they are still in their sins and all they can expect is judgment.

The Lord will judge the living and the dead.  Those who have rejected the gift of salvation through Jesus Christ will be placed into a literal hell of all eternity, but those who have trusted in the shed blood of Jesus Christ to wash away their sins will enter Heaven and be with the Lord for all eternity.  We are saved by the grace of Jesus Christ through our faith in Him.

We believers in Jesus Christ must continue to persevere and endure with our focus being fixed upon our Lord and Savior.  We need to wait for His coming, but that doesn't mean we sit around and do nothing.  There are many people all around us that need to hear the good news of Jesus Christ.  If we don't tell them, who will?

Lord,
We praise Your Name.
Thank You for Your love and mercy.
Lead us and guide us by Your Holy Spirit.
In Jesus Name I pray,
Amen.
