Now I ask you to make a promise. Make it in the presence of God, who gives life to all, and in the presence of Jesus Christ, who openly told Pontius Pilate about his faith. Promise to obey completely and fully all that you have been told until our Lord Jesus Christ returns. The glorious God is the only Ruler, the King of kings and Lord of lords. At the time that God has already decided, he will send Jesus Christ back again.
1 Timothy 6: 13 - 15
Today the internet is buzzing with predictions that the return of Jesus may be in just a few days! The fact that no man knows the day or hour of the return of Christ does not mean that no man will accurately speculate about the season of that Day.
When someone tells you the Estimated Time of Arrival of an airplane, it is not a statement that comes from knowledge, because it has not yet happened. But based on all the facts they have, it can be known about when the plane will land.
God has already decided when will be the Day of the Second Coming and He has given us “signs” to look for so that we can know that the day is near! But the moment of the “Touch Down” is known only to God!
It is indeed accurate to say that many “signs” of the Second Coming of Jesus are evident today! To believe that His return will be soon is not foolish, but to say that you know for certain when will it be is not wise!
Until Jesus comes, be ready for His return and be obedient in telling others about Jesus Christ as you watch the Kingdom of God grow larger every day!
You can be sure that God has planned for Jesus to return at just the perfect moment in the history of the world. He will not be a moment early or a second late! Could it be today? Yes it could!
“Lord Jesus, give me the courage to speak of You today and tell others that trusting in and depending on You is the only thing in this life that is truly important. Praise Your Holy Name now and forever. Amen.”
