I believe that God, through this Word, talks about being caught up in the air one day (Rapture), we need to be prepared and available for the coming of the Lord The world ages, it grows old. But when I say the end is near, I mean this earth will reach its end and SOON. This finite earth, with all its splendor and beauty, has a life span which it exists for a specific period of time.
No matter how good this planet may seem, no matter what\u2019s going on in it, God has appointed a certain day to put it (the earth) to end. Everyone living in it must take this matter of truth seriously and importantly, because nobody will stay in this world forever. We are strangers (pilgrims) in this life journey.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We also need to understand that the length of our stay in this world is determined by how we spend our life at present. 1 Peter 4:7 says, \u201cBut the end of all things is at hand\u201d. For the kingdom of God is near, so is the end of everything in this world. This is the sounding alarm for all of us Christians: to get ourselves ready. Let us never miss the final flight at this moment. Anyone who will miss the flight of this end time will regret it. There are many people who end up blaming themselves about how they lived their lives. It happened before, if you remember the Bible account of Noah. In Matthew 24:37, Jesus was quoted saying, \u201cAs it was the days of Noah, so will it be at the coming of the Son of Man.\u201d Noah was told to build an ark. He was calling the people and announced, \u201cCome inside, a flood is coming.\u201d They thought of him as a foolish pastor saying, \u201cCome on, Noah! There is nothing, what are you talking about? God wouldn\u2019t do that.\u201d The people in Noah\u2019s day refused to enter the ark, until they were wiped away. Others may also be professing that they don\u2019t believe in any God or any pastor; all they believe is science. I tell you the truth no one is excused. Lawyers, doctors, pastors, bishops, or even apostles will appear at the throne at Judgment of God. All of us.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Bible says in Hebrews 9:27 things we Christians need to observe in times like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Understanding The Signs of His coming. Jesus Our Savior doesn\u2019t leave us in the dark about His coming, He revealed this clearly before He departed. We remember Him mentioning that when it\u2019s getting near for Him to come back, things will happen, that we will see this and that, then His coming is near. Jesus said in Mark 13:28-31, My Bible made it very clear in the book of Matthew 24:1-7, that there will be rumors of war all around the world. Today, there\u2019s no month that we don\u2019t hear about rumors of war. There are issues in America, Australia and China. One country is against another. There is confusion everywhere, a sign that the coming of the Lord Jesus is at hand. Evil things are happening all over the planet. Reading verse 7 of the said chapter, \u201cFor nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences (Sickness), and earthquakes, in divers places.\u201d Aside from sin, another sign of the end time is the increase of knowledge. People travel to and fro and knowledge increases according to the book of Daniel chapter 12 verse 4, \u201cBut thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end; many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.\u201d Come to think of it, knowledge is far more increasing than ever before and people rejoice over this phenomenon exclaiming, \u201cWow! This is a new world, more than a new world!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
2. Watch! Be vigilant! There\u2019s a need to be sensitively perceptive because the trick and the lie of the devil may hold you captive. There are many things in this world that endorse an indulgent lifestyle , \u201cDo not worry, you can commit sin as willfully as you like, as long as you are saved, no problem.\u201d Watch out! Perceive it as a lie of the devil in these end times.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
3. Pray. Always pray that you won\u2019t lose your crown. One of the important prayers I have is, \u201cGod help me, all the members you have committed into my hands, including my family, that we will never and never let us miss your kingdom.\u201d\u201cPray that your flight\u201d signifies your departure back to heaven. \u201cWill not be in the winter\u201d means in the cold time when everyone becomes cold in spirit. Matthew 24:12
4. Love God Until The End. If you don\u2019t want this end time problem, if you don\u2019t want to be a victim of this perilous time, you need to make sure that the love of God is not be quenched in your life. Love him more and more. Love him better each day till the end. Let your love never be wax cold. According to the book of Mark 12:30, \u201c And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.\u201d This is the greatest commandment, the greatest law of our God. Love Him. Whomsoever you love, you are excited to see and be with.
Rejoice our King is coming soon, Hallelujah.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
