Christ Promises His Return
Backgrounder on Matthew 24-25:
Herod’s temple captured the
attention of all who passed by.
Commenting on its beauty and
splendor, the disciples set the
stage for Jesus’ Olivet Discourse,
a prophetic look at future events.
His followers are urged to watchful
expectation coupled with faithful
service because the return of
Christ will be unannounced. And
His coming will bring rewards
for His watchful followers.
Lord, we will Prepare for Yr Return:
Immediately after the tribulation,
the sun will be darkened…
the stars will fall from heaven…
Then they will see the Son of Man
Coming on the clouds. He will send
forth his angels with the sound of a
mighty trumpet blast and they will
gather together His chosen ones
from the farthest ends of the earth.
When you see the events I have
described beginning to happen,
u can know His Return is very near..
Heaven and earth will pass away,
but My Words Will Not pass away
(Matt 24: 29-33 & v35). Amen.
Lord, let it be settled in my heart
that You Are Returning. Help me
to be sensitive to changing seasons
both in my life & those around me.
Help me to share Your life with
others who are open to know more
about You. Open my eyes to the
signs around me so that I might
prepare for Your Return out of
gratitude for Your great love. Amen
Lord, Your Word is not merely
ancient literature, but rather it
speaks in Present ways into the
Nows of our lives. In fact the holy
Scriptures is Your sacred Promise
on which we can stake our lives.
Lord Creator, Sustainer and truly
my All-in-All, may Your Word
teach me, shape me and saturate
me. Speak clearly to me and
then speak through me, for the
furtherance of Your kingdom
and living the abundant life. Amen
Lord, These are the days of Elijah,
Declaring the word of the Lord
And these are the days
of Your servant David,
Rebuilding a temple of praise.
These are the days of the harvest
The fields are as white in Yr world
We are t labourers in Your vineyard
Declaring the word of the Lord!
Behold He comes riding on t clouds
Shining like the sun at t trumpet call
Lift your voice, it’s the yr of jubilee
Out of Zion’s hill salvation comes!
