THE BRIDEGROOM IS COMMING



 After much hunger, thirst, suffering, and longing for His presence, Jesus will come as a loving groom to His bride, lifting us in His loving arms and ever so tenderly placing us at His table to personally serve us!


That day our hunger for His presence will be satisfied!


Keep looking up!


On that day He will seal his covenant with His Church, and we will be dressed in white. He will remove all shame and guilt and give us a new name. We will cast our crowns at His feet and our lips will praise Him for eternity along with all heavenly beings: "... And they do not rest day or night, saying: “Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, Who was and is and is to come!" Rev 4:8


"Worship Him who lives forever and ever, and cast their crowns before the throne, saying: You are worthy, O Lord, To receive glory and honor and power; For You created all things, And by Your will they exist and were created." Rev 4:11


Jesus says:  "Blessed are those servants whom the master, when he comes, will find watching. Assuredly, I say to you that he will gird himself and have them sit down to eat, and will come and serve them." Luke 12:37


There is nothing like picturing Him in His sweet, loving, and humble nature, as the King that He is, coming to serve us—though we are unworthy of Him, we are so ready to receive all His love —that true love that we have all been wanting to experience since the first day we were born into this world. Sitting at that table as we look back to our lives, we will see that every storm we weathered was nothing compared to the joy we are experiencing in His presence. And we will look back wishing that we had been even better servants, watching more attentively, and being more prepared for Him. Jesus says: “Let your waist be girded and your lamps burning, and you yourselves be like men who wait for their master when he will return from the wedding, that when he comes and knocks they may open to him immediately."  

Luke 12:35-36


Waist be girded: During that time, people would wear long garments. When they needed to be active or travel, they would gather up the loose ends of their clothing and tuck them into their belts to free their legs and allow movement. The instruction to 'let your waist be girded' in a spiritual context means being mentally prepared for Him to come, living each day as if He could come today. Making today's decisions thinking that soon you will sit at that table.


Lamps burning: We all have the Holy Spirit in us, so our lamps have the oil and are burning. This means to be spiritually alert to His coming, praying, hoping, and crying out for Him to come. Church: We serve a loving, faithful, and devoted Groom, soon we will leave everything behind to be with Him, keep seeking His face continually and His word as He finishes getting us ready.


Keep looking up!

IT'S TIME TO BELIEVE IN JESUS HE IS COMING FOR HIS CHURCH: 


Believe Jesus is the Son of God, who shed His blood for you, died on the cross for our sins, He was buried and resurrected during the third day, according to the Scriptures, so we can have eternal life with Him.


The moment you believe in Him and that He died for your sins - you're saved, justified, sealed until the day of redemption, and rapture ready!


The Holy Spirit will come to live inside of you - He will help you, guide you, change you, and be with you FOREVER!


"For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life." For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved. He who believes in Him is not condemned; but he who does not believe is condemned already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God." (John 3:16-18)
