We all have often heard how children, when on a road trip with parents, will impatiently and constantly repeat "Are we there yet?" We who are true children of the heavenly Father are, in today's perilous times, wondering the same thing in regards to the soon return of Jesus as to when our "flight 777 to heaven on Titus213 airlines" will occur? We ARE almost there! Trust the good Lord! Hold on Tight to faith in Jesus and in His promises!
A wonderful and comforting promise of Jesus is found at John 14:1-4 which follows:
"Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in Me. 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. 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. And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know."
That is our blessed hope! Titus 2:13, 14 tells us: "Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ. Who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto Himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works."
Many Christians today are feeling "battle weary." But we must not lose hope! We must keep the faith! God's promises never fail! The fact that His Holy Word the Bible prophesied about these current last days and how those prophesies are now daily - even hourly, or by the minute - coming true right before our very eyes ; that should all the more increase our faith and hope that our "battle" on this earth will be over soon when we meet our beloved Jesus ! Yes, many have said our life on earth is but a "journey" or a "pilgrimage", and that is very true. But as for these last days we find ourselves caught up in - it is a true battle ! A spiritual battle!
Romans 8:35-39 informs us: "Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? As it is written, For Thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter. Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord."
When the apostle Paul in the above verses mentions angels, principalities, powers, he, for the most part, refers to spiritual forces such as fallen angels and evil entities and, yes, the devil. All of which wage war against true believers in the Lord. This battle ground, so to speak, is further discussed in Ephesians, which speaks of the "whole Armor of God." Please, please read all of Ephesians 6, as well as all of Romans 8 as well.
"Finally, my brethren, be strong in the Lord, and in the power of His might. Put on the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to stand against the wiles of the devil. For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places. Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand." - Ephesians 6:10-13
Following is an excellent 13 minute video about the Armor Of God and what it means and entails:
As we all know, many during the past year have suffered extreme losses, such as the death of a loved one, loss of employment, and the list goes on. But God wants us to learn from what we are going through, so it says in the following 13 minute video. It says, "God isn't letting you down, He's letting you learn!"
Another excellent video which follows stresses for us to focus on God and not our battles!
Not long ago, on this blog, a post was made concerning the Rapture, in which is explained the meaning of "Flight 777 on Titus 213 airline". Here is the link https://inspiringnaturephotography.blogspot.com/search?q=departure+soon+flight+777
One more wonderful video for you ! It is 13 minutes in length and tells us the ONLY THING we can take to heaven with us. A must watch for all Christians!
In view of the fact that these are the last moments of the last days, it is imperitive that all persons concern themselves where they will spend eternity. Remember, eternity is a long time to spend in the wrong place - the wrong place being hell!
