Mark 14:62 (NIV)
62 “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the
Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds
of heaven.”
The world in which we live is full of pessimism. No
Christian has the scriptural right to go around wringing his hands wondering
what we are to do in the face of the present world situation. The Scripture
says that in the midst of persecution, confusion, wars, and rumors of wars, we
are to comfort one another with the knowledge that our Lord Jesus Christ is
coming back in triumph, glory, and majesty. Many times when I go to bed at
night I think to myself that before I awaken Christ may come. Sometimes when I
get up and look at the dawn I think that perhaps this is the day He will come.
He has told us Christians to be watching constantly and to be ready, “for in
such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh” (Matthew 24:44). Do you
think Christ will come today? “Probably not,” you say. It is on just such a day
that He may come. What a glorious time of reunion it’s going to be, when we
shall be caught up with Him!
Thought for today:
What is the second-coming going to look like?
