How would your life be different if you dared to “live as if Christ died yesterday, rose this morning, and is coming back tomorrow “(Martin Luther)? This question has been staying with me for quite a long time now.

You are called to rethink your life with Jesus Christ too. Are you really following him? Would you be ready to state like Jack Hyles “I’d rather die in the will of God than to live outside of it”? When you’re ready to state that and live that, you’re ready for Jesus’ to come back any day.

Because Jesus is coming back. It is time to rethink your life with Jesus Christ.

Jesus tells us:“Don’t let this throw you. You trust God, don’t you? Trust me. There is plenty of room for you in my Father’s home. If that weren’t so, would I have told you that I’m on my way to get a room ready for you? And if I’m on my way to get your room ready, I’ll come back and get you so you can live where I live. And you already know the road I’m taking.” (John 14:3,MSG)

I strongly believe that Jesus indeed died on the cross, rose on the third day and will come again. We don’t need to know when Jesus is coming but we need to be always ready. Meanwhile, we are to serve God. Passionately, wholeheartedly. Like Jesus was coming back any day now.

It is indeed time to rethink your life with Jesus Christ. Life is not meant to be spent by being entertained. God has a specific plan and purpose for you. Seek God and you will find who you are meant to be and what you are meant to do. And that beats everything. Nothing like being in the center of God’s will.

 

Gracious God,
Thank you for preparing us the way back to you.
Thank you for knowing the past, the present, and the future.
Help us to dare to believe all your promises.
Equip us to serve you passionately wherever you send us.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
