Look Up!

     Before the worst 7 years of earth’s history the church of Jesus Christ will be raptured to be with Him for the wedding feast of the Lamb. After the 7 years we will return with Him (on horses!) as He finishes His work at the battle of Armageddon and sets up the new heaven and the new earth.

     How wonderful to know we will be protected, just as Noah was from the flood and just as Jesus took Enoch up in the clouds. Here is a verse to bring hope.

After that, we who are still alive and are left, will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so, we will be with the Lord forever. Therefore, encourage one another with these words. 1 Thessalonians 4:17-18

     Encourage one another with these words. Whether we die in our earthly bodies or are caught up with Christ to be with Him forever, we will be in eternity with Him. Talk about encouraging! There is no longer fear in death. Jesus won the battle over death on the cross. He is our victory.

Where, O death, is your victory? Where, O death, is your sting? The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. But, thanks be to God. He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 15:56:57

Jesus,

Death no longer holds us captive. You overcame it for us. Whether we die or are lifted up in the clouds when the trumpet sounds, we will live forever. Thanks be to God!

Amen
