Maranatha! Come Lord Jesus!

For you yourselves know that the Day of the Lord will come as a thief comes at night. 1 Thessalonians 5:2 (GNT)

Bible Reading: 1 Thessalonians 5:1-11

As the clock ticks each day without returning, we draw closer to the Day of our Lord Jesus Christ. Someone once said, we are currently at the tail end of the end. The love of many has waxed cold. Many have become tired of waiting and have joined the world to wine and dine in sin. As it was in the days of Noah, people ate and drank and men and women got wedded up to the very day Noah went into the boat. Yet they did not realize what was happening until the flood came and swept them away. That is how it will be when the Son of Man comes (Matthew 24:37-39). Don’t say you will repent some minutes or days before Jesus comes or before death knocks your door. This is because, as a thief comes in the night, so shall the coming of our Lord and saviour Jesus Christ be. As a child of God who eagerly anticipates His coming, “cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompense of reward. For ye have need of patience, that, after ye have done the will of God, ye might receive the promise. For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come and will not tarry”. Hebrews 10:35-37 (KJV). Maranatha! Come, Lord Jesus.
