Gedanken zum Vers des Tages
Auf wen wartest du? Kannst du dir irgendetwas Aufregenderes vorstellen, als auf die Wiederkunft von Jesus zu warten, der uns in seiner Herrlichkeit nach Hause führen wird?
Thoughts on Today's Verse...
Can you think of anything more exciting than waiting for Jesus to come take us home to share with him in his glory?!
Ours isn't a passive wait. Jesus gave us a commission to take his story to the whole world and invite others to prepare and join with us in awaiting his glorious return. We worship and praise our great God as we anticipate this great day — as we eagerly await him. We joyfully anticipate our salvation, trusting that it is nearer now than when we first believed (Romans 13:11). We stand on spiritual tiptoe, eagerly awaiting our Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ (Philippians 3:20). We not only believe, we anticipate his return to bring the full experience of salvation promised to "those who are waiting for him." But until then, we work on mission so that others will join us in our anticipation, and say with us, "Maranatha! Come, O Lord (1 Corinthians 16:22).
Mein Gebet
Majestätischer König aller Zeiten, möge dein Reich in seiner Fülle kommen und sich jedes Knie vor deinem Heiland beugen, und mögest du gestatten, dass es zu unseren Lebzeiten geschieht. Durch Jesus bete ich erwartungsvoll. Amen.
My Prayer...
Majestic King of the Ages, may your Kingdom come in all its fullness as every knee bows to your Savior, and our King, the Lord Jesus Christ. We anticipate this day when every knee will bow!* Please grant that this glorious day may come to pass in our generation as we work to bring others to know Jesus and anticipate his coming with us. Through Jesus, I expectantly pray. Amen.
* Philippians 2:9-10.
