Romans 13:11
“And do this, understanding the present time: The hour has already come for you to wake up from your slumber, because our salvation is nearer now than when we first believed.”
A short reminder for JESUS' return focuses on remaining watchful and prepared with joy, living a life that reflects His teachings, and sharing the hope of salvation with others. Pray, stay alert, alive, awake and asks for spiritual readiness, the courage to share the gospel, and the grace to live a life that honors and pleases GOD our Savior until He returns.
Here are some things to consider…
STAY WATCHFUL, not fearful: JESUS told His followers to "watch for" and "be ready" for His return, not with dread, but with joy and celebration. This means staying spiritually alert and living with urgency, motivated by the hope of His return…
LIVE WITH PURPOSE: Use the promise of JESUS’ return to inspire a more committed life today. Focus on living a life of holiness and purpose, motivated by the knowledge that He will return…
SHARE THE HOPE: Be a witness to the hope and salvation you have in CHRIST, sharing His message with others who may not be ready.
Prayer:
Lord JESUS, I believe You are coming again. Help me to stay watchful and prepared, living each day in a way that honors You and brings you pleasure. Give me the courage to share Your message of hope with others and to live with joy in the anticipation of Your return. In Your gracious Name , Amen.
