One-minute read.
Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the Earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. And he will send out his angels with a loud trumpet call, and they will gather his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
Matthew 24:30-31
Jesus will gloriously return on the clouds of heaven. Angels will blast the trumpet, and the Lord will gather His people together. Only God knows when, but without a doubt, the Savior will come, as promised. Christ fulfilled over 300 prophecies when He entered the world, the mathematical odds so extreme that it proves His identity. Only the Creator’s Son could accomplish that feat; if Jesus did it once, He will do it again.
God keeps His promises, every one of them, And the Lord will keep this one as well. One day, the Almighty will blast the trumpet, and those who went before and those still living will come together for a heavenly reunion. Our minds can’t comprehend the events that will take place, but we will experience joy like never before.
Gathering His people from the four winds, the Gospel will have reached the ends of the Earth. Every place under the sky will have heard the good news of Christ’s birth and resurrection, having the opportunity to place their faith in the Savior. What a glorious day awaits those who choose Jesus. Although life on Earth comes with hardship, the few years we spend here will diminish as we experience eternal glory with Christ.
Application:
One day, Jesus will return and reunite His family.
Prayer:
Lord, thank You for keeping Your promises and giving us the hope of an eternal future with You filled with no more tears and no more heartache. Let us wait well for the day You call us home and show us Your glory.
IJNIP Amen
