Since the beginning of time, God has said exactly what will happen on this earth. People has discounted God’s word because it has not happened now. People think that because God’s judgment is not immediate, it won’t happen at all. This is the furthest thing from the truth. Everything that God has said will happen, did happen. It is all in God’s time. God’s word says that mercy triumphs over judgment. God gives everyone able opportunity to hear the truth and turn to Him. The Promised Land that God gave to Abraham was lost on two different occasions because of sin. The Israelites returned to the Promised Land for a 3^th time in 1947. In God’s economy, the number 3 is the number of perfection. God is testing Israel to see if they will remain faithful to His word.

It is the same for the rest of the world. We are in the time of testing. God is seeing if we are going to be faithful to His word. Everything that is going to happen is written in God’s word. And God has already explained what He is going to do. So, the how does not need to be explained again. Now what God is wanting from us is to be ready for the when. He said He would come as a thief in the night. And only those who are ready will receive Him. God also said that when He comes those who look like Him will be able to see Him. And yes I am talking about Jesus Christ.

God talks about the signs of the times and recognizing them. The first sign that Jesus is returning that we can recognize is Israel returning to the Promised Land. So we are in the season of His return. Will I see Jesus return to reign and rule in Jerusalem? I don’t know. Only the Father knows when He will return.

The only time that God actually guarantees in now. The Bible says that today is the day of salvation and now is the time. This is the only time that everyone has is now. So, let me ask you a question. Are you ready to face God? If you are not ready, now is the time to get ready. It is very simple to get ready. God says to turn from your wicked ways and face God and ask for forgiveness. And God says that He will forgive. All of what I have said is in the Bible. God is willing to take all of us back home. Only if we are willing to go home to God. So, it is not how, but when.
