He
who testifies to these things says, "Yes, I am coming soon." Amen.
Come, Lord Jesus. Revelation 22:20
The people
of God ought to be the happiest people in all the wide world!
Fellow
Christian, consider the source of our joy and delight: redeemed by the blood of
the Lamb, our yesterdays behind us, our sin under the blood forever and a day,
to be remembered against us no more forever!
God is our
Father, Christ is our Brother, the Holy Ghost our Advocate and Comforter!
Our Brother
has gone to the Father’s house to prepare a place for us, leaving with us the
promise that He will come again!
Don’t send
Moses, Lord, don’t send Moses! He broke the tables of stone.
Don’t send
Elijah for me, Lord! I am afraid of Elijah—he called down fire from heaven.
Don’t send
Paul, Lord! He is so learned that I feel like a little child when I read his
epistles.
O Lord
Jesus, come yourself! I am not afraid of Thee. You took the little children as lambs
to your fold. You forgave the woman taken in adultery. You healed the timid
woman who reached out in the crowd to touch You. We are not afraid of You!
Even so,
come, Lord Jesus!
Come
quickly!
and from Jesus Calling: by Sarah Young
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Isaiah 9:6
As this
year draws to a close, receive My Peace. This is still your deepest need, and
I, your Prince of Peace, long to pour Myself into your neediness. My abundance
and your emptiness are a perfect match. I designed you to have no sufficiency
of your own. I created you as a jar of clay, set apart for sacred use. I want
you to be filled with My very Being, permeated through and through with Peace.
Thank Me
for My peaceful Presence, regardless of your feelings. Whisper My Name in
loving tenderness. My Peace, which lives continually in your spirit, will
gradually work its way through your entire being.
But we have this treasure in
jars of clay to show that this all-surpassing power is from God and not from
us. 2 Corinthians 4:7
But the Counselor, the Holy
Spirit, whom the Father will send in my name, will teach you all things and
will remind you of everything I have said to you. Peace I leave with you; my peace
I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be
troubled and do not be afraid. John 14:26–27
