THE KING IS COMING BACK
Scripture Reference: John 14:1-4
Second of Jesus Christ
Preparation for Jesus Second Coming Prayer Bombs
The end of the earth
Why is the second coming of Jesus is important?
How can I prepare for Jesus Second Coming?
“1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God,
believe also in me.
2 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.
3 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.
4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.” John
14:1-4
More than enough time has been given to me and you to get set for the
second coming of Jesus Christ. For every human person has an appointment with
the King-Jesus Christ when he comes but catching up with the appointment
requires adequate preparation. Remember Jesus foretold that, He has gone to
prepare a better place for me and you in his father’s house and when he is
through with the preparation then He will come back to carry me and you home.
What a loving and caring Savior we have!
Understandably, I and you also have to prepare to meet up when Jesus
comes. Christ himself placed value on preparation for He knew that He can’t
just come and carry God’s children home when sufficient preparation is not in
place, beloved! Are you preparing for the coming of Jesus Christ or you are
still in the community of doubt and procrastination? Whether you prepare or not
Christ is coming back.
In the days of Old when God observed the wickedness of man and wanted to
destroy the wicked generation God told NOAH to prepare an ARK as captioned
below;
“And God said unto
Noah, The end of all flesh has come before me; for the earth is filled with violence
through them; and, behold, I will destroy them with the earth.
Make thee an ark of
gopher wood; rooms shalt thou make in the ark, and shalt pitch it within and
without with pitch.
And this is the
fashion which thou shalt make it of: The length of the ark shall be three
hundred cubits, the breadth of it fifty cubits, and the height of it thirty
cubits.
A window shalt thou
make to the ark, and in a cubit shalt thou finish it above; and the door of the
ark shalt thou set in the side thereof; with lower, second, and third stories
shalt thou make it.
And, behold, I, even
I, do bring a flood of waters upon the earth, to destroy all flesh, wherein is
the breath of life, from under heaven; and everything that is in the earth
shall die.
But with thee will I
establish my covenant; and thou shalt come into the ark, thou, and thy sons,
and thy wife, and thy sons' wives with thee.
And of every living
thing of all flesh, two of every sort shalt thou bring into the ark, to keep
them alive with thee; they shall be male and female.
Of fowls after their
kind, and cattle after their kind, of every creeping thing of the earth after
his kind, two of every sort shall come unto thee, to keep them alive.
And take thou unto
thee of all food that is eaten, and thou shalt gather it to thee, and it shall
be for food for thee, and for them.
Thus did Noah; according
to all that God commanded him, so did he” Genesis 6:13-22
God told NOAH to prepare an ARK and make rooms therein that will
accommodate his family cum his domestic animals and NOAH did accordingly as
directed by God. And in chapter seven of the same Genesis God told NOAH to go
inside the ARK with his family and his domestic animals;
Let understand something here, it was one thing for NOAH to prepare the
ARK and it was another thing for him to obey God again by taking all his
belongings into the ARK, thereafter came the flood “And the flood was forty days upon the earth, and the
waters increased, and bare up the ark, and it was lifted up above the earth”
Genesis 7:17
Now the underlining point from the above illustration is that NOAH
prepared the ARK the way and manner God commanded and he never missed out when
God began to destroy the whole earth. All that matters to NOAH he took them
along with him into the ARK and he never missed anything because it is not
written anywhere in the bible that NOAH forgets to carry so and so into the
ARK. Adequate preparation pave way for success or mission accomplishment.
Jesus Christ told us plainly; that we should prepare for his second
coming, that his physical absence on earth is a show that He has gone to prepare
an awesome place for you and me. Additionally, he said if He is (was) not
coming again He would have told me and you. Remember this same time of
preparation was giving to NOAH as well, thank God Noah used his time and
prepared the ARK and he was saved. Beloved! Would you allow this precious time
given for heavenly preparation to lost? I pray that should not be our portion
in Jesus name
The underlining questions;
§ Are you preparing for the second coming of Jesus
Christ?
§ Or did you think Jesus will not come again?
§ Or do you think you have enough time to prepare,
maybe next month or next year?
§ Or do you have anyone preparing on your behalf?
Beloved, salvation is a personal responsibility, no one can fight for
your salvation. It is your task. You pastor cannot work your salvation, he can
only show you the way leading to salvation. We cannot deny the fact that no one
knows the real-time the KING is coming but interestingly we all know that Jesus
Christ is coming back, so soon. For eternity is so near.
Note Noah never missed out his timely appointment with God and I pray you
should never miss yours as well in Jesus name.
Now that me and you know salvation is a personal task it is advisable for
parents, guardians to point their children to the way of the cross for the
bible said;
“Whosoever shall seek to save his life shall lose it, and
whosoever shall lose his life shall preserve it.
I tell you, in that night there shall be two men in one bed;
the one shall be taken, and the other shall be left.
Two women shall be grinding together; the one shall be
taken, and the other left.
Two men shall be in the field; the one shall be taken, and
the other left.
And they answered and said unto him, Where, Lord? And he
said unto them, Wheresoever the body is, thither will the eagles be gathered
together” Luke 17:33-37.
It is clearly spelt in the above scripture that salvation requires
preparation and this type of preparation require everyone to engage it personally.
Note evangelizing, praying and studying the word of God together is not a bad
thing, for the bible talked about brethren praying together in one accord.
SCRIPTURAL STRATEGIES TO PREPARE FOR THE COMING OF JESUS
CHRIST
Successful people said;
“when preparation meets opportunity it results into success” likewise in the kingdom of God when preparation
meets the coming of the KING it automatically results into heaven at last.
Be born. No student gets into university without passing through JAMB and other related
examinations, and no mankind can smell the kingdom of God without been born
again. If Jesus could recommend born again to Nicodemus then there is more to
think of about the concept “born again”. Born again is the stage where one
renounces totally the worldly things, confess and profess Jesus Christ as his
personal Lord and Savior and at the same time seek for divine mercy for the
forgiveness of his sins, this also goes a long way with total cleansing with
the blood of Jesus from all iniquities.
“There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler
of the Jews: The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know
that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that
thou doest, except God be with him. Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily,
verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom
of God” John 3:1-3.
Holiness. Holiness means righteous living and without holiness, no one can see the
kingdom of God.
“Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the
Lord” Hebrew 12:14.
Soul-winning. God does not want any soul to perish no matter and because of that, he
has charged us to preach and teach the gospel to others so that they can be saved
and inherit his kingdom.
“Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in
the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: Teaching them to
observe all things whatsoever I have commanded you: and, lo, I am with you
always, even unto the end of the world. Amen” Mathew 28:19-20
Sincerely prepare your Ark. God told Noah to prepare an Ark that could harbour
him and his family besides his domestic animals and Noah did in accordance and
was saved with his family. No doubt! If Noah neglected the commandment God gave
him to prepare the ARK probably NOAH would have been destroyed couple with his
lineage. Now the coming of Jesus is so near and that preparation is the only
yardstick for hell exemption if you don’t want to miss out then kindly prepare
as NOAH did.
Purity. The Bible foretold that without purity no one can
see God, so for you to make heaven your heart must be pure before the Lord. “Blessed are the pure in
heart: for they shall see God” Mathew 5:8
Meekness. Jesus recommended humility to the extent that God the father said, he
hates those who are so proud and love those who are lowly in their dealings.
The kingdom of God is not for proud people but for those who sold out their
legal rights, titles, position and becomes like little children without any
mark of evil.
“Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth” Mathew 5:6;
“And said, Verily I say unto you, Except ye be converted,
and become as little children, ye shall not enter into the kingdom of heaven”
Mathew 18:3
