We do not know the day or hour Jesus will Return


Verses: Luke 12 : 35 - 40

My thoughts about the verses:

Humankind has been trying to figure out the date and time Jesus will return.  The prediction of the end of times has occurred since the death of Jesus.  So many people interpret the signs and correlate with what is happening in modern times.

During World War II it was believed that Hitler was the devil trying to take over different countries  of the world to make them one.  His rise of power was thought to lead to the end of times.  Yet, it didn't happen so people have looked at other people signifying that the end of time is near.

Jesus compares himself to a thief.  Is it not true if you knew the exact moment you would be robbed you would be prepared.  You would be waiting with all of your trusted defense mechanisms to stop the thief from taking all of your property,   Just remember the movie Home Alone.

Yet, what do we do to prepare for Jesus.  We do not know the date or hour Jesus will be coming back. Are we preparing our heart for when Jesus comes.  Just think that if today was the day Jesus came back would you be ready.   Are there things that you would need to do in that moment to accept Jesus.  There is no better time than right now to accept God in your life.

We should be waiting for the return of our Savior.  Waiting for that moment when we will go home to Heaven.  It could happen while you are reading this.  For now one knows when the Savior will come. I am just glad that I am prepared for that moment.  I pray that you too are ready for that moment when Jesus calls you home.

Prayer:

Thank you for loving us.  Thank you for the willingness to set us free. Thank you for preparing each one of us a place in Heaven.  Dear God we ask you to help us prepare for Jesus's return.  Help us find the freedom that you are so willing to give us. In the name of the Risen Savior we pray.  Amen

Questions:

Are you ready for the Savior to return?  Is your mind focused on doing the will of God?  Have you accepted God in your life?  What do you need to do to be prepared for Jesus if he came back today?
