Prepare for The Lord’s Return
The final week of Jesus’ earthly
life dawns; that period of time
which occupies more space in
the Gospels than any other stage
of Jesus’ ministry. His arrival in
Jerusalem coincides with the
preparations for the Feast of
Passover. Though events move
quickly, Jesus is never hurried.
There is time to clean the temple,
watch the widow contributes
her two mites, and give final
instructions to the disciples.
Lord, we’ll Prepare for Your Return: 
Everyone will see the Son of Man
coming on the clouds with great
power & glory. And He will send out
his angels to gather his chosen ones
from all over the world (Mk13:26-27).
Since you don’t know when (these
things) will happen, stay alert and
keep watch. The coming of the Son
of Man can be compared with that
of a man who left home…(for) a trip.
He gave each of his employees
instructions about the work they were
to do, and He told the gatekeeper
to watch for his return. So keep a
sharp lookout! For you do not know
when the homeowner will return…
Don’t let him find you sleeping when
he arrives without warning (v33-36)
Lord, the events of the end times
are still to come in world history.
The signs are already here with
increasing frequency of earth
quakes, pestinences and lawlessness.
And the day will come when
You will appear in the clouds.
Help us Lord to be prepared, to know
Your Word, be weary of false prophets
and share the gospel. Amen.
Lord Jesus, You promised to come
back for Your church. Help us
to be diligent while we anticipate
that day. We want to share the
Good News with our friends and
loved ones who don’t know You yet. 
Prepare their hearts to receive
that message. Help us not lose sight
of what You have called us to do
while we wait for Your return with
hope and expectation. Amen.
These are the days of Elijah,
Declaring the word of the Lord.
And these are the days of
Your servant Moses,
Righteousness being restored.
These are the days of the harvest,
The fields are as white in Yr world.
We are the labourers in Yr vineyard
Declaring the word of the Lord!
Behold He comes riding on t clouds
Shining like the sun at t trumpet call
Lift yr voice, it’s the year of jubilee
Out of Zion’s hill salvation comes.
