Thoughts for another day

Dec. 9, 2013.

Today's verse: Is. 24:23. Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun ashamed, when the LORD of hosts shall reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem, and before his ancients gloriously. (KJV)

(Pls. read the above before you read further.  Thanks)

One day every knee shall bow and every tongue will confess that Jesus Christ is LORD, to the glory of the Father.  One day, every dominion, authority and power will belong to the LORD God alone, for it was His and it will remain His.  Heaven and earth will pass away, but God will ever remain, LORD, the Maker, Creator and Sustainer of all that is created and He alone will stand aloft towering over the universe and all that’s beyond; and His eye will watch all things and on that day, everything with breath and even that without, will lift their eyes to Him, and acknowledge that He is God.

His splendor will be known among all nations and His glory will pervade every corner of the cosmos.  His power will be recognized by everything that’s there in the vast space and every idol, every filth and everything that exalts itself to be god, will be shattered.  The eyes of all men will be opened and those who revere Him will have tears of joy in their eyes for their faith in Him will be vindicated and those who don’t will only have shame and terror in them for they stubbornly refused to believe in Him and scorned those who talked of Him.  The dread in their eyes will be right, for God at that time, will judge with a rod of iron and there will be great distress, for the sins of men will come to flog them before a Holy and righteous God.

At that time, the moon will grow pale and the sun will blush for the glory of the LORD will outshine them when He comes to reign in Zion, His holy city, Jerusalem.  Yea, then all His enemies will cringe before Him, even they who had ridiculed Him and laughed Him to scorn when His people proclaimed Him.  My friend, if you trust in Him then keep your trust in Him even more for then the principalities and powers that torment you today will be leashed and beaten.  You’ll see Him in all His glory and He will hold you close.  Blessed are those who wait for that day, for surely He will come with His angels upon the clouds of heaven and the time will be terrible; yet for us, who believe in Him, there will be much joy and celebration…yea, Maranatha, Come Lord Jesus.
