Ekgim daily devotion. Greetings of peace to you beloved family of God.
✍Many Christians know that Jesus is coming back someday, but it doesn’t affect their lives. They don’t understand how the truth of Jesus’ return connects to the problems they’re facing. But James 2:12 says, “Speak and act like people who will be judged by the law that sets us free” (CEV). Jesus wants his followers to be ready for his return.
✍So as we go through tough seasons in life, one of our responsibilities is to help each other get ready for the second coming of Jesus Christ. How should we live in light of Jesus’ return? Here are some actions to take from the book of James:-
✅Getting rid of all the filth and evil in our lives. (“Get rid of all the filth and evil in your lives, and humbly accept the word God has planted in your hearts, for it has the power to save your souls” (James 1:20-21 NLT). When we’re expecting guests, we clean up our houses and homes. In a similar way, we need to prepare our lives for Christ Jesus’ return by confessing our sins and inviting God to remove it from our lives. Let’s urge our family members and those we come across to do the same.
✅Let’s remain close in fellowship with Christ. (“Draw near to God, and he will draw near to you” (James 4:8 ESV). As we get closer to the climax of history, it’s important for us to draw near to Christ Jesus. The Bible also says, (“Remain in fellowship with Christ so that when he returns, you will be full of courage and not shrink back from him in shame” (1 John 2:28 NLT).
✍We are to be “full of courage” for whatever comes our way as we await his return. Our ability to face the difficulties on the horizon is connected to our closeness to God. Now isn’t the time to stray from him. We need him more than ever . May the Lord help us in preparation of Christ’s return in Jesus Name. Amen🙏🙏🙏
