The return of Jesus Christ will be a glorious and terrifying event for the world. Every eye shall see Him, and the nations of the earth shall mourn when they behold the One they rejected. While believers will look to Him with hope and joy, those who have rejected Him will face the reality of His judgment. Let us therefore live ready and faithful, knowing that Jesus is coming again with power and great glory. Scriptural Readings for the Day Zechariah 12:10 (KJV) 10 And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. Revelation 1:7 (KJV) “Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.” Matthew 24:30-31 (KJV) “30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. 31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.” Prayer Lord Jesus, help me to be ready for Your glorious appearing. May I never be among those who mourn because they rejected You, but among those who faithfully await Your coming. Amen.
