Behold He Comes!

Today’s Devotion
Topic: Behold He Comes!
(Self Assessment)

Background: Jesus is coming soon- the signs are clear. Isaiah prophesied about this about 700 years before Jesus was born. However we are as adamant as our fathers were in the days of Noah. Jesus warns that “as it was in the days of Noah, so it will be at the coming of the Son of Man. For in the days before the flood, people were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, up to the day Noah entered the ark” ( Matthew 24: 37- 38).

This study therefore seeks to explore the various TRUTHS surrounding the second coming of Christ and provide an opportunity for self-assessment, whether or not we will make the number when He appears. Please read the passages below carefully and share the revelations the Holy Spirit gives you with us.

Text: Isaiah 62: 10- 11

10 Go through, go through the gates, prepare the way for the people, build up, build up the highway clear it of stones. Lift up a signal over the peoples. 11 Say to the daughter of Zion, behold your salvation comes; behold; his reward is with Him, and His recompense before Him. Amen
