The coming of the LORD Jesus Christ was prophesied many centuries before His coming. The prophet Isaiah, full of the Spirit of God in Isaiah 7:14 was given a message of hope for the house of Judah that the Messiah would be born and a virgin would become pregnant of the Holy Spirit and at the right time would give birth to a Son Who would be called the Son of God. I am quite sure many people during the Old Testament times who were expecting the Son of God to come during their time died without having seen the day of the LORD. However, all those who had faith in God, were not disappointed at all because when Jesus Christ came into this world, they were also delivered as the Bible says in Matthew 27:50-53, “And Jesus cried out again with a loud voice, and yielded up His spirit. Then behold, the veil of the temple was torn in two from top to bottom; and the earth quaked, and the rocks were split, and the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints who had fallen asleep were raised; and coming out of the graves after His resurrection, they went into the holy city and appeared to many.” All the prophets in the Old Testament and all who had died in faith, were raised and they went into heaven. It is therefore important for us today to remain focused on God in order that we will not miss the hour of our visitation when the LORD Jesus Christ appears to take His elect with Him. The right direction for us is to believe in what the LORD Jesus Christ said before His ascension that He will come again to take His elect and I mean those who will remain steadfast upon His Word. In Acts 1:9-11, “Now when He had spoken these things, while they watched, He was taken up, and a cloud received Him out of their sight. And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as He went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel, who also said, “Men of Galilee, why do you stand gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, Who was taken up from you into heaven, will so come in like manner as you saw Him go into heaven.” These are true words spoken by the angels who were revealed to His disciples who stood watching the LORD disappear into heaven. At His own appointed time only known to God the Father, the Son of God will certainly return according to the word of the angels. He will certainly meet with all His servants who remain steadfast upon His Word. 2 Peter 3:8-13, says, “But, beloved, do not forget this one thing, that with the LORD one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The LORD is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance. But the day of the LORD will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up. Therefore since all these things will be dissolved, what manner of persons ought you to be in holy conduct and godliness, looking for and hastening the coming of the day of God, because of which the heavens will be dissolved, being on fire, and the elements will melt with fervent heat? Nevertheless we, according to His promise, look for new heavens and a new earth in which righteousness dwells.” So if everything of this world will dissolve, and also from evidence we see all the time when a person dies from this world, he is not buried with anything at all. We came into this world naked and naked shall we leave this world. When we are in Christ Jesus, we are very rich in this world and the world to come. As children of God, we are heaven bound. It is therefore very wise for us to hold onto Jesus Christ and not to be distracted by things of this world which will perish at the second coming of our Lord. Alleluia!

Prayer

Thank You LORD Jesus Christ for reminding me that naked I came into this world and naked I shall leave. May You help me only to hold onto You as in You I have my hope and life. In Jesus Christ’s mighty name I pray. Amen.
