"The Coming Of The Son Of Man"

A Blast From The Word
By Sandra Rhynes

“The Coming Of The Son Of Man”


Matthew 24:37
But as the days of Noah were, so also will the coming of the Son of Man be.

The Lord Jesus is coming back for us and we will be caught up to meet Him in the air and be forever with Him in Heaven. We do not know the time or the hour when our Lord will come back for us. It is up to us to be ready to go. The Bible does give us little hints as to the signs of the time. The point is to stay ready. If you were waiting for a friend to pick you up at your home for a vacation to Florida, what would you be doing? You would get up early and get dressed. You would brush your teeth and comb your hair. You would pack your suitcase and all the while you would be watching for your friend so you wouldn’t miss him and miss the ride to Florida. Just like in the days when Noah built the ark, things will be pretty normal. You will get up and go to work, go through your daily routine, go to Wal-Mart, eat, drink. There will be nothing different happening. Then all of a sudden the Lord will appear in the eastern sky and up we will go. Praise the Lord! As God was preparing Noah for the flood and the way of escape, He prepares us for the end times and our way of escape is the Rapture. Noah’s part was to build the ark, stay ready and tell others. Our part is to be packed and ready to go up and to tell others. How will you be living and what will you be found doing when the Lord calls you home for eternity? Will you be prepared or will you be going your own way and not be worried about the things and ways of the Lord? Let us pray, read the Bible and stay just as close to Jesus as we possible can. He is the One who has the last say. He is the One we cling to. Read all of Matthew 24, it is great!

Lord of Heaven and Earth and Lord of me, I love you supremely. Keep me ready to meet You in the air. I long to be with You forever. Help me to tell others of Your love, mercy and grace. Thank you Lord for loving me and speaking to me. I want to build Your Kingdom. Amen
