What’s Next ?
Have
you ever asked yourself that question? The Bible has a lot to say about What’s
Next…
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. “From the fig tree learn its lesson: as
soon as its branch becomes tender and puts out its leaves, you know that summer
is near. So
also, when you see all these things, you know that he is near, at the very
gates. Truly, I
say to you, this generation will not pass away until all these things take
place. Heaven and earth will pass away, but my
words will not pass away.” Matthew 24:31-35
If you watch,
listen, or read the news, you know that things are happening fast! According to
scripture, it certainly seems that the Rapture of the Church is imminent. The
time is near!
The question is,
are you ready for What’s Next?
Here are three
things to consider:
What’s Happening?
What’s Next?
What’s What?
1)
What’s Happening? – Are you aware of the world’s current
situation? The fig tree is blooming…
2)
What’s Next? – Review Matthew chapter 24 for a listing of
events leading up to the Rapture.
3)
What’s What? – Are you ready?
But concerning that day and
hour no one knows, not even the angels of heaven, nor the Son, but
the Father only. For as were the days of Noah, so will be the coming of
the Son of Man. For
as in those days before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying
and giving in marriage, until the day when Noah entered the ark, and they were
unaware until the flood came and swept them all away, so will be the
coming of the Son of Man. Then two men will be in the field; one will be taken
and one left. Two women will be grinding at the mill; one will be taken
and one left. Therefore, stay awake, for you do not know on what
day your Lord is coming. But know this, that if the master of the house
had known in what part of the night the thief was coming, he would have
stayed awake and would not have let his house be broken into. Therefore you also
must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not
expect. Matthew 24:36-44 ESV
There
has never been a more exciting time to live for Jesus! All believers welcome
the arrival of Christ, The Next Thing! What is especially important
are these reminders from Jesus:
Stay Awake!
Therefore, stay awake,
for you do not know on what day your Lord is coming. Matthew 24:42 ESV
Be Ready!
Therefore you also
must be ready, for the Son of Man is coming at an hour you do not
expect. Matthew 24:44 ESV
He who testifies to
all these things says it again: “I’m on my way! I’ll be there soon!” Yes! Come,
Master Jesus! Revelation 22:20 MSG
Make sure you are
ready for…
What’s Next!
