For Friday, November 22, 2024:
1 Thessalonians 5:2 NLT: “You know quite well that the day of the Lord’s return will come unexpectedly, like a thief in the night.”
When Jesus walked alongside mankind on earth, even he couldn’t tell us the exact day he would be returning. He told the believers, “No one knows the day or hour when these things will happen, not even the angels in heaven or the Son himself. Only the Father knows.”
Our Creator knows mankind’s tendencies and shortcomings, and the danger is that we would live a raucous, sinful life, and scramble at the last minute to prepare for judgement day. But our Father wants our love and obedience ALL the time, not just at the last minute.
No one knows when the second coming will occur, and if someone tells you they know, they’re speaking falsely. Don’t believe them! Loving the Lord is a 24/7 task, not a last-minute scurry.
As each day passes, we’re one day closer to the Day of the Lord!
