Tumultuous Times

In the middle of tumultuous times, I have a promise for you; “Great peace, have they that love your law, and nothing shall offend them.”  Psalms 119:165,


When Jesus was taken up to heaven in the ascension, the angels left us with a message of hope. It is found in Acts 1:10,11:


And while they looked steadfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

Which also said, men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? This same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.


I believe that Jesus is coming again and here is the reason why.

  • The Bible teaches it - Matthew 24:30

  • The prophets proclaimed it - read the book of Joel.

  • The Angels announced it - Acts 1:11

  • False Doctrines are everywhere - Matthew 24:5

  • Wars and rumors of wars - Matthew 24:6

  • Weak backsliding, offended believers - Matthew 24:10

  • Men’s hearts failing them for fear of things coming on the earth – Luke 21:26

  • Lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God - Matthew 24:38


It will be sudden, there will be no time to pray, and it will be as a thief in the night. The scripture is clear as the invitation goes out to those who are prepared; COME!!! There is also a declaration regarding those who are lost; DEPART!!!


SOME WILL REMEMBER THIS LARRY NORMAN SONG FROM THE 70'S.


I WISH WE’D ALL BEEN READY

Life was filled with guns and war
And everyone got trampled on the floor
I wish we'd all been ready

Children died; the days grew cold
A piece of bread could buy a bag of gold
I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind
The Son has come, and you've been left behind

A man and wife asleep in bed
She hears a noise and turns her head
He's gone
I wish we'd all been ready

Two men walking up a hill
One disappears and one's left standing still
I wish we'd all been ready

There's no time to change your mind
The Son has come and you've been left behind

There's no time to change your mind
How could you have been so blind?
The Father spoke, the demons dined
The Son has come and you've been left behind

You've been left behind


Jesus is coming soon for those who are looking for His return.


I believe in His Soon return, I believe in you,
