“A Glorious Day”                          

 Zechariah 9:16

When that day arrives, the LORD their God will rescue

His people just as a shepherd rescues his sheep.  They

will sparkle in His land like jewels in a crown.  (NLT)

     What a glorious day it will be when the Lord returns to rescue His people from this evil world—the day when He comes with the fire of vengeance in His eyes to rescue His people and put an end to the evil in our world.  The Lord takes no pleasure in the death of anyone, but His justice must take place and reign throughout the land.  No unrepentant sinner will be spared; they will pay the price for their sins.  Those of us who have put our hope and trust in the blood of Christ as our sin payment in full, are in safe keeping until King Jesus returns to make all things right.  But for those who love their sin more than God, their day of reckoning is close at hand and they will pay the price and be condemned.  Their sentence will be final and it will be eternal.  They will share the Lake of Fire with Satan, which is far removed from the glorious new heavens and earth!

      What a glorious day it will be when we are able to live in the Presence our Holy God. We will slip into our glorious new bodies that will be perfect in every way.  We will never again be separated from the glory and goodness of God.  We will never grow old and die.  We will never be sick or get hurt, and sadness and tears will be no more.  The new heavens and earth will be our Home and they will be so incredibly beautiful that the old will never come to mind.  What awaits God's children in the future is beyond our finite comprehension, but the Scriptures explain all we need to know for now.  Put your life in the hands of God my friend, become a part of the Greatest Escape  in the history of mankind, one that puts the great Red Sea escape to shame.

                                                  A Whisper of Hope                                              

Come to Me, dear child...and I will give you rest.  Come into My arms and let Me wipe away your tears.  Let Me whisper in your ears the words of hope that will comfort your weary soul and bring My everlasting peace into your precious heart.

2 Corinthians 4:4

Satan, the god of this evil world, has blinded the minds of those

who don't believe, so they are unable to see the glorious Light of

the Good News that is shining upon them.  They don't understand

the message we preach about the glory of Christ, who is the exact

likeness of God.  (NLT)

                           But the day of the Lord will come 

                       as unexpectedly as a thief. 

                                                           (2 Peter 3:10)
