Father, there are new adventures just around the corner. You and You alone know what they will entail in their entirety. Guide and direct us all as You see fit, for then things will be as they should be. Amen.
Revelation 1:7 (<<click here to read the passage)
Lord, I truly believe that this verse illuminates a key truth. When it says “everyone will see [You]” and “all peoples on earth ‘will mourn because of [You]’”, it is making it clear that we – all of humanity will know it is You. There will be no guessing or wondering…we will know.
We may run from You; say we don’t believe in You and ignore You. We can say You don’t exist and that You are not who You claim to be…but down, down deep in our souls, we know the truth. We can deny it all we want, but it doesn’t make it any less true.
When You come “with the clouds” the entirety of humanity will see You and instantly know who You are…and we will morn. The Amplified Bible spells it out when it says,
“…all the tribes (nations) of the earth will mourn over him [realizing their sin and guilt and anticipating the coming wrath].”
Lord, I don’t know where I will be when this event takes place, but I can say this with great assurance, “I know now who You are.” I will not be caught off guard. I will not be unprepared. I will be ready! Help me, Lord, to diligently be about Your work so I may show many others the way into Your kingdom so they will know You now as well. Amen.
