The Great Tribulation?

Matthew chapter 24 verse 29:-   29 “Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens will be shaken.

So what exactly are we to expect when the Great Tribulation arrives? Don't be deceived, survival beyond this point will depend on your endurance, love for Jehovah and faithfulness! It will not be easy to see the destruction of millions of people, but we must never forget that these wicked ones were given plenty of opportunities to change their ways!

Ask your selves this - Will you be able when the time comes to leave all your worldly possessions behind, or will you run back to collect a few? Will your thoughts be about your lovely home, your TV and computer, your Car or any number of other possessions! or will you walk away and not look back? You don't have to turn your head to look, it is what is bubbling away in your heart revealing your desires that matters to God!

The Heart is All.

Luke chapter 17 verse 32:-   32 Remember the wife of Lot.

Lot's wife died because she could not break away from having to leave all her nice homely things behind, she had more love for her material things than she had for God! We today who are living in the time just before the Great Tribulation also have this choice to make, are you mentally prepared to leave everything behind not hanging on to the desire for these material things in our hearts? You may think you can do this with no problem, but we need to prepare now, because this may be a lot harder than you think!

Your love for Jehovah will be the most important reason to enable you to survive Armageddon, what we leave behind can be replaced at a later time, but your life cannot! It is vital to keep your worldly possessions in their proper place, never become so attached to them, that you forget where your salvation comes from, keep reminding yourself where your real future life prospects reside!

Essential Things Only?

Matthew chapter 24 verses 43 and 44:-   43 “But know one thing: If the householder had known in what watch the thief was coming, he would have kept awake and not allowed his house to be broken into. 44 On this account, you too prove yourselves ready, because the Son of man is coming at an hour that you do not think to be it.

The more you have accumulated, the harder it will be to leave them behind! Because we are so near to the outbreak of the Great Tribulation, we should right now be discarding things that we do not really need in our homes, ultimately this will make it easier to leave all the rest of our things if we have to abandon our residence very quickly!

When the time comes we need to be ready, we don't want to be worrying about our worldly goods! The less we accumulate the easier it will be to leave. Don't be fooled into thinking it will be alright to wait until the time arrives, unburden yourselves now, put Jehovah first in your lives because the wonderful benefits of eternal life on a Paradise Earth are just ahead!

Love Conquers All!

Matthew chapter 24 verse 30:-   30 Then the sign of the Son of man will appear in heaven, and all the tribes of the earth will beat themselves in grief, and they will see the Son of man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

Those who die at Armageddon will also include many who show a distinct lack of faith, now is the time to strengthen your love for Jehovah before his Son Jesus Christ arrives to remove the wicked. There are no second chances to put things right, we have to act now to correct wrong thinking and feeling it will be all right on the day! To quote part of a scripture -  "We cannot slave for two masters",  we need to be prepared now, ask yourselves honestly, who or what will you serve?

Our love for Jehovah is worth far more that any love we may have for material things, and Nothing in this system of things is ever worth loosing our chance at eternal life for! We all need to move forward with faith and love for each other and complete trust in the saving power of our wonderful and forgiving God Jehovah! He will never let us down, we must be prepared to do the same!

Matthew chapter 25 verse 13:-   13 “Keep on the watch, therefore, because you know neither the day nor the hour.

Love Never Fails!
