Tuesday Rhapsody Of Realities - He's Coming Back Again

                       
Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book (Revelation 22:7).

Some people wonder why we preach the Gospel the way we do all around the world with so much urgency, fervency, and passion. First, it’s because the Master gave us a mandate to evangelize the world before He comes back. He said in Luke 19:13, “...occupy till I come” ; that means keep working; keep preaching the Gospel and leading men and women into righteousness...


In Matthew 28:19-20, the Master instructed, “Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world. Amen.” He left us with a message; a message for the whole world about what He came to do in the earth, so that when He comes back, many will be prepared for Him, and go with Him. Halleluiah!

That’s why we’re preaching. We’re not just talking, or merely holding “religious” programmes. This isn’t just to get people excited about Christianity; no! It’s about Jesus Christ and His living message: that He came to die for us, and that God raised Him from the dead, and that He ascended into heaven, and He’s alive today, and will come back one day, very soon. How ready are you for the Master’s soon return? You might ask, “When, and how soon is He coming back?” He’s coming very soon; a lot sooner than many realize. All the things He told us will happen before He comes are happening exactly the same way He said they would. There aren’t too many signs or events left to be fulfilled before the Master’s soon return. This is why we must keep preaching the Gospel, letting men and women all over the world know that the end is near, the Master is coming again. He was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto them that look for Him shall He appear the second time without sin, unto salvation (Hebrews 9:28).

PRAYER
Dear Father, I thank you for your grace upon the Church of Jesus Christ to effectively proclaim the Gospel and establish your righteousness in the hearts of men and women all around the world in these last days. Through the preaching and teaching of your Gospel of righteousness, the lost around us, and in the regions beyond, are snatched from destruction and damnation, into the glorious liberty of the sons of God, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

FURTHER STUDY:
John 3:13 - And no man hath ascended up to heaven, but he that came down from heaven, even the Son of man which is in heaven.

1 Corinthians - 16:22 If any man love not the Lord Jesus Christ, let him be Anathema Maranatha.

2 Timothy 4:2 - Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.
