Thought for the Day by Phil Washington (BH Member) Coming Soon... The second Advent of the Lord Jesus Christ is the hope, desire and deepest longing of every true believer. There’s something within our souls that aches for that day, even though it will be a day of wrath and destruction upon our ungodly world and it’s people. Did you know that the last recorded words of Jesus were ‘I am coming soon’? They are to be found right at the end of our bibles in Revelation 22:20. ‘Amen, come Lord Jesus’ responds the Apostle John. Amos warned the ancient people of Israel to ‘Prepare to meet your God’ (Amos 4:12). The days of verbal and written warnings were over. God Himself was coming in judgement and wrath! How can we prepare to meet with God? How can we escape the coming Day of Destruction and Judgement? Our only hope of salvation is to ‘Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ’ (Acts 16:31). For He is the saviour who ‘rescues us from the coming wrath’ (1 Thess 1:10). Having been ‘saved’ how should we, as believers, prepare for His coming? Hold Lightly – to the things and accolades of this world, for they are passing and temporary. Hold Tightly – to the things of God, for they are eternal and lasting. Hold tight to His promises, word, people, service and kingdom. Are you prepared to meet your God? He’s coming soon, of that we can be sure – because He says so. Martin and Fran Russell prayer news
