A Date To Walk With Him

So the four angels, who had been prepared for the hour and day and month and year, were released to kill a third of mankind. Revelation 9:15

It's an appointment - hour, day, month, and year. Sometimes to us the apocalypse or end time seems like a ticking time bomb set to go off at a time we do not know. Other times it seems as if those times will never arrive, like a Christmas that has been postponed indefinitely. On the one hand, the fears of judgments and many deaths lurk. On the other, the return of our Lord Jesus in His great power and glory. It feels as if we are in the middle of two arms of a cross! But we also know by faith that we are not the ones in the middle, for long ago our Lord Jesus took up that cross burdened with our sin so that we wouldn't have to. The cross of our sin would crush us into the dirt, but our Lord Jesus took it to His death and then rose again! So, freed from the crush of judgment that is to come and looking forward to the One who will meet us on the other side of whatever death ends this short life, we rejoice in Christ Jesus today. For this day is the only appointment we need to appear at, this day we have a date to walk with Him through all the hours, days, months, and years.

Great is our Savior, Jesus!
