Power and Great Glory

Scripture:

Matthew 24:30  "Then will appear in heaven the sign of the Son of Man, and then all the tribes of the earth will mourn, and they will see the Son of Man coming on the clouds of heaven with power and great glory".

Observation:

Jesus was speaking about the last days and the events leading up to the last days.  When He speaks of His own return, He says He will be coming on the clouds with power and great glory.  What an incredible picture of Jesus return.

Application:

We are waiting for the soon return of our Lord and when He comes, He will come with power and great glory.  We can have this confidence, that those who make fun of us and who ridicule us for our faith, will one day see Him coming with power and great glory.  At that point, they will wish they had listened.  We must never be ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.  We need to see our Savior as one coming with power and great glory.

Prayer:

Lord, help me to see You High and Lifted up with power and great glory.  Help me to see You coming again to rule the nations with a rod of iron.  Help me to walk in bold confidence as I declare Your word.  Help me to reach as many as possible before Your return.

Yours,
Jeff
