OH YES, JESUS WILL COME AND BE SURE OF THAT— BE READY!
OH YES, JESUS WILL COME AND BE SURE OF THAT— BE READY!
And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days. (will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord. And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.) —Joel 2:28-32
“No, this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel: ‘In the last days, God says, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, your old men will dream dreams. Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy. (I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood and fire and billows of smoke. The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and glorious day of the Lord. And everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”) —Acts 2:16-21
“Immediately after the distress of those days “‘the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light; the stars will fall from the sky, and the heavenly bodies will be shaken.’ “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory. —Matthew 25:29-30
I watched as he opened the sixth seal. There was a great earthquake. The sun turned black like sackcloth made of goat hair, the whole moon turned blood red, and the stars in the sky fell to earth, as figs drop from a fig tree when shaken by a strong wind. The heavens receded like a scroll being rolled up, and every mountain and island was removed from its place. Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?” —Revelation 6:12-17
Peter said that this prophecy was being fulfilled, as least in part, on the day of Pentecost. The Holy Spirit was given on that day and now everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord is saved, sealed and secured by that same Holy Spirit (Ephesians 1:13-14). Both Matthew 25 and Revelation 6 cover the last part of the prophecy of Joel that was repeated by Peter on Pentecost.
Before Jesus comes back there will be a great war, but “Then will appear the sign of the Son of Man in heaven. And then all the peoples of the earth will mourn when they see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven, with power and great glory” and “Then the kings of the earth, the princes, the generals, the rich, the mighty, and everyone else, both slave and free, hid in caves and among the rocks of the mountains. They called to the mountains and the rocks, “Fall on us and hide us from the face of him who sits on the throne and from the wrath of the Lamb! For the great day of their wrath has come, and who can withstand it?” Yes, this day is coming and our Lord will set all things right! Hallelujah! Amen!
Even so, come Lord Jesus. Yes, Dear Father, may this be soon and until then, please help us to live according to Your desires by the power of Your Holy Spirit and in the authority of Your Son Jesus. Yes, may this be so for Your honor and glory. Just as Pentecost is still on the calendar… so is Your coming! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qL7rMNfB1Lg
