Matthew 24

Hi everyone! I Hope your day is as blessed as ours! Kim and I are reflecting on how much joy comes from working together in God’s garden, Amen! We recently attended an uplifting Praise Event held at our Church that really showcased the power of Gospel Music—it was fantastic! The Light of the Holy Spirit and the Gospel did Shine, and Shine again. The fact is Shine is the Name of the Group that performed. Every one loved them. Connecting with others who share such passion for God fills our hearts with gratitude. We were truly Blessed with not only the music but the Holy Spirit Filled Gathering. And we’re thankful for this great Concert, our Church and also this amazing community we belong to. God is clearly at work here. Amen…

On another topic, earlier today Kim and I were talking, and out of no where the conversation led us to a question that inspired us and it is straight out of God’s Holy Word. Ah ha! the Question:

Have you ever felt like the world around you is echoing a prophecy straight out of Matthew 24?

As storms rage in Texas and rumors of conflict swirl, the signs are unmistakably unfolding before our eyes. In an era marked by unprecedented weather anomalies, relentless conflicts; Israel-Hamas, Russia-Ukraine, global pandemics and more pandemics rumored to come, also humanity doing unthinkable things to one another… leaving us often feeling as if the masses have lost their complete sanity.

But then the Holy Spirit’s still small and sometimes very loud and bold voice leads us to reflect on the prophetic words found in God’s Holy Word, The Bible.

Matthew 24 serves as a strong reminder of the mega dark times that humanity will face. All the while giving us hope at the promises it holds for those who love and trust Jesus Christ, Lord, King and Redeemer! Thus, prompting readers to reconsider their outlook on faith and its relevance in today’s world. As we navigate through these challenges where uncertainty reigns and the future remains unpredictable—the inerrant truth, undeniable accuracy of the prophetic teachings of God’s Holy Word holds the key to understanding our present crisis and the preparation for what lies ahead.

Luke 21:28 (NIV) “When these things begin to take place, stand up and lift up your heads, because your redemption is drawing near.” In this verse, Jesus encourages His followers to remain hopeful among trials and tribulations. The call to “lift up your heads” signifies an attitude of expectancy of His imminent return and of faith. It reminds us that even in challenging times, we should focus on the promise of redemption through Christ Jesus, who embodies love and eternal salvation.

Jesus, is our anchor in raging seas and The Beautiful Radiant Light on our Heavenly journey home. Jesus, the Savior of the world is leading and guiding us, and healing and saving lost souls. His unwavering presence offers us comfort among chaos, reminding us that we are never truly alone. As we navigate through life’s storms, His love illuminates our path, encouraging us to reach out to others in need. However, before starting this Eternal Journey we must be born again by excepting Jesus as our personal Savior.

In closing, the reflections presented above highlight the urgency of heeding God’s prophetic Holy Word, Matthew 24 being a cornerstone encapsulation of these last days as it resonates with today’s global challenges.

The Holy Scriptures serve not only as an inerrant historical account but also as a call to introspection for individuals grappling with uncertainty in today’s world. The assurance of redemption through Jesus Christ provides a beacon of hope among chaos, emphasizing the significance of faith in navigating life’s tribulations.

An additional benefit and blessing of Engagement with God’s Holy Word is its drawing us to extend His loving kindness that we have received from Him to the needful in our community as we are given in Matthew 25:40 “And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you in as much as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren ye have done it unto Me.”

Ultimately, a personal relationship with God’s Holy Word guides us toward personal transformation even in times of adversity.

God Bless You & Keep You!
