TOPIC: All Eyes On Him
MEMORISE: Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Revelation 1:7
READ: John 14:2-6
In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.
Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
MESSAGE:
The second coming of the Lord is the greatest event that everyone should look forward to. It is an occasion that will put an end to the present world and give rise to the government of the anti-Christ. Before then, the Bible says that the world will see Jesus appear in the sky, and all men, women, and children will see Him. The dead in Christ will rise from their graves to meet Him, and those who are alive in Christ will be changed as we join Him in the clouds.
Some people wonder how the whole world will see Jesus simultaneously despite being in different time zones. Well, I believe that the internet will be the major medium through which the whole world will see Jesus in the sky. People will go on social media platforms to witness the Lord’s second coming because it would be the greatest event of all time. This is why I want to implore you to show Jesus to your friends, neighbours, and colleagues now through your behaviour, conduct, and speech because the end is very near.
REFLECTION:
When Jesus comes, will you go with Him?
HYMN 56: Nearer, My God To Thee
1 Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer To Thee;
E’en Though It Be A Cross
That Raiseth Me,
Still All My Song Shall Be,
Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer To Thee!
2 Though Like The Wanderer,
The Sun Gone Down,
Darkness Be Over Me,
My Rest A Stone,
Yet In My Dreams I’d Be
Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer To Thee!
3 There Let The Way Appear
Steps Unto Heaven;
All That Thou Send’st To Me
In Mercy Given;
Angels To Beckon Me
Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer To Thee!
4 Then With My Waking Thoughts
Bright With Thy Praise,
Out Of My Stony Griefs
Bethel I’ll Raise;
So By My Woes To Be
Nearer, My God, To Thee,
Nearer To Thee!
5 Or If On Joyful Wing
Cleaving The Sky,
Sun, Moon, And Stars Forgot,
Upward I Fly,
Still All My Song Shall Be,
Nearer, My God, To Thee;
Nearer To Thee!
