If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

                                               

--John 14:3

 

The story of Jesus Christ did not end 2000 years ago. The Savior who came into this world in the manger of Bethlehem, died for you and me on the cross of Calvary, and rose from the dead, is coming again for us!

 

But this time, Jesus will not come to a cradle in a lowly manger, but to a throne. He will be wrapped in glory, not in swaddling clothes, on His final return.

 

We look forward with great joy and anticipation to that day. But in the meantime, Jesus is our wonderful Savior and Lord who keeps us every day. Did you know that right now, Christ is at the right hand of the Father, interceding and praying for you? He is on your side; He wants to give you sound counsel and wise advice. And He is your legal representative before the courts of heaven.

 

When you place your life in Christ’s hands, you can rest assured that you will receive grace and not judgment because of what Christ did for you. Christ has saved you, and one day soon He will return for you and bring you into His holy presence in heaven!

 

That is why Christ is unique as the One who reigns on high, and will reign forever and ever!

 

PRAISE THE LORD TODAY FOR THE GLORIOUS TRUTH THAT HE WILL RETURN ONE DAY TO TAKE YOU TO HEAVEN TO BE WITH HIM.
