Many believers are putting their hopes
in the rapture. They want to be taken out of this world before the
great tribulation. But these poor people do not know Jesus. Their
hope is in the rapture, not in Jesus. Our hope must be in Jesus, not
in some happening that will snatch us away. Jesus never promised to
take us out of trouble. He said:”I will be with you in trouble.”
Paul said:”Whether I live or whether I die, I belong to the Lord!”
and that must be our attitude.
We must not be looking for Jesus at
certain places or with people. If we do not know Jesus and He does
not live inside us then we will never find Him. If we are not His
sheep and we do not hear His voice then we do not belong to Him.
Jesus warned us, Matthew 24:25-27:”Behold,
I have told you in advance. 26“if
therefor they say to you, ‘Behold, He is in the wilderness,’ do
not go forth, or, ‘Behold,
He is in the inner rooms,’ do not believe them. 27“For
just as lightning comes from the east and flashes even to the west,
so shall the coming of the Son of Man be.”
Dear
friend, don't put your hope in some happening, some occurrence. Don't
run after prophets that give you a date for the rapture. Put your
hope in Jesus. Follow Him every day, Jesus must be living inside of
you. He must be alive in you and through you. The world must see
Jesus in you, in this time of trials and tribulations. Is Jesus IN
YOU? Or are you looking for some escape?
May
Jesus bless you.
