“And it shall come to
pass afterward that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh…” (Joel
2:28).
It is now after
Christ has been condemned, crucified and resurrected. A time has passed and man
has continued to fail God, and worst deny Him. Now God will fulfill His promise
that He will “…show wonders in the heavens and in the earth: blood and fire
and pillars of smoke. The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into
blood, before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord” (Joel
2:30, 31). Jesus is coming and all that has been prophesied, dreamt, and
seen in visions shall come to pass.
God said that
whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. So, we can rely on His
Word that there will be deliverance in Jerusalem
and Zion among
the remnant whom the Lord calls. The state of the nation, and the world
gives evidence of all Bible prophesy. What we are witnessing now are the
expected results of a global community bent on destroying itself. God gave this
world a courtesy “do-over” after the great flood. Our second opportunity like
the first is turning out to be just another self-willed disaster.
Great news! Jesus
is coming! We don’t know when exactly but for sure He will be here, maybe
sooner than later. “Get ready, get ready, get ready!” In this
same second chapter of Joel, God has promised that whosoever calls on the name
of the Lord shall be saved! I pray we all call Him Lord and our own personal
Savior.
We can watch all
the bad news on TV, and read about the “wars” of the world on the
internet, but like a man standing in his yard watching a tornado coming his way
we better make sure our preparations for the approaching storm are all in
order. Surely, end-times prophesy has begun. Seek first the Lord!
