RHAPSODY OF REALITIES DEVOTIONAL FOR TODAY WEDNESDAY 1ST JANUARY 2025.
This year is a very special year, and one of the things you should schedule to do every day is talk to people about Jesus; preach the Gospel with much passion. The urgency of the moment demands it. The Lord is coming soon. When we talk about the coming of the Lord, which is the second advent of the Lord, in-between is another very important event, which is the catching away of the Church; it’s called the Rapture of the Church.
The Rapture is the event described in the Bible where the dead in Christ shall rise, and we who are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them and taken out of this world to meet the Lord in the air. This event— the Rapture of the Church—is very near; therefore, the Bible says, “Seeing then that all these things shall be dissolved, what manner of persons ought ye to be…” (2 Peter 3:11).
Your manner of life has to reflect and show that you’re waiting for your Lord’s return. Mark 13:35-36 says, “Watch ye therefore: for ye know not when the master of the house cometh, at even, or at midnight, or at the cockcrowing, or in the morning: Lest coming suddenly he find you sleeping.” Don’t let Him come back and find you sleeping or doing nothing. You should be busy for the Lord.
So, today, what are you doing for the Lord? It’s a very important question to ponder. Are you busy for Him, or are you busy for yourself, your company, or your earthly family? What are you doing for the Lord? Somebody once said, “A service to man is a service to the Lord.” That’s not entirely true.
The service to man that is the service to God is the service to man that God asked you to do, not just any service to man. So, live unto Him as the Bible says: “And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again” (2 Corinthians 5:15). 1 Corinthians 15:58, “Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.”
PRAYER/CONFESSION
I live each day with a consciousness of the Lord’s soon return, staying diligent in the work He’s called me to do, winning souls and sponsoring the Gospel. I’m strengthened to live according to God’s Word, bearing fruits that glorify Him, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.
