ULTIMATE CARE DEVOTIONAL⛪TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 2022🪐💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦TODAY’S THEME: ⛪THE DAY OF THE LORD“But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night; but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light”.TEXT: Zechariah 14:7MESSAGE:The Day of the Lord according Zechariah 14:1-15, describes the cosmic picture of God gathering the nations to lay siege to Jerusalem and when half of the population has been exiled, God comes to deliver the city (verses,2-3), defeating those opposing Jerusalem (verses, 12-15).The Day of the Lord is a time of Judgment, a time when a sentence is passed and settled forever. It is a day that is coming for certain as Obadiah said, “For the day of the Lord is near upon all the heathen; as thou had done, it shall be done unto thee: thy reward shall return upon thine head” (Obadiah 1:15)The significant of the Day of the Lord: it’s a day inaugurating the eternal universal rule of God.In the Old Testament; it was recognized as an eschatological day of ultimate judgment bringing final deliverance or doom called also day of Yahweh.In the New Testament: it is declared as the triumphant day of Christ’s return to earth in glory.7 Ways to Prepare for Jesus’ Return (Mark 13: 24-37)Live in the light of His first coming.Be discerningAccept the uncertaintiesDon’t lose hopeEncourage one anotherLive as if today was the dayKeep on doing the work Jesus left us to do.On the Day of the Lord, the Lord’s people shall also enjoy light in the hour of death. Unbelief laments; the shadows fall, the night is coming, existence is ending. Ah no, crieth faith, the night is far spent, the true day is at hand (Romans 13:12-14). Light is come, the light of immortality, the light of a Father’s countenance. Gather up thy feet in the bed, see the waiting bands of spirits! Angels waft thee away. Farewell, beloved one, thou art gone, thou wavest thine hand. Ah, now it is light. The pearly gates are open (Rev.21:21), the golden streets shine in the jasper light (Revelation 21:18). We cover our eyes, but thou beholdest the unseen; brother and sister thou hast light at even-tide, such as we have not yet. May the Lord guide us to be ready for the Day of the Lord, in Jesus mighty name, Amen.PRAYERS♨️Heavenly Father, I thank you for my life and my family members.
