Yet He Is Near

He who testifies to these things says, Yes, I am coming quickly.  Amen. Come, Lord Jesus. The grace of the Lord Jesus be with all. Amen.  Revelation 22:20-21 NASB

Jesus is always with us. And yet He is near, He is coming, He is moving in. Our world is clearly facing the types of crises for which there is no way out. Only God has the answers. Just as the solutions to our individual problems will come by revelation from Holy Spirit, the answers to humanity’s turmoil will also only come by Holy Spirit’s revelation.

As God’s people, we are to be ready to receive Jesus into our lives and prepare for His return. We must make prayerfully reading the Bible a daily exercise, the days are moving quickly, those who believe in Jesus Christ must get back to the basics of His truth, relying on faith unseen, trusting Holy Spirit’s supernatural presence, the forgiveness at the cross, the resurrection, the power of God, the blood of Christ, and other potent spiritual realities God has unveiled in His word to those who believe.

This is the only way we, God’s people, can stand firm as brothers and sisters united by Jesus, singing worship carried to Him on hands raised with praise for our magnificent Lord, all while ministering to the fracturing world around us in the cities, towns, families and communities God has invited us to join Him in.
