Predicting Snow, Predicting The Return Of Jesus!

With the title of this blog, both events seem to be very difficult to do. The weather people have all this fancy equipment to use to predict the weather. Doppler radar, satellites, computers, and they are still wrong it seems most of the time. How many times have we been warned "big snow storm is coming!" Then nothing materializes. They get us all worked up for a big letdown. Predicting a snow storm, or snowfall of any kind seems to a hard thing to do. Even with all the equipment and knowledge.

That's the same with trying to predict the return of Jesus. The Bible give us a list of things that will happen before His return, but some people think that the know better than God, The Father! We've had pastors, false prophets, scientist all try to predict the return of Jesus. Guess what? All have failed. They get everybody worked up with what they think will be the end of the world, and the next day, we are all still here.

Nobody knows when the return of Jesus will be. Some think that they can outsmart God. They would be wrong!

Matthew 24:36 The Message

36 “But the exact day and hour? No one knows that, not even heaven’s angels, not even the Son. Only the Father knows.

Since no one knows the day or the hour, we should always be prepared for His return. It could happen at any moment.

Just like when the we prepare for an impending snow fall. We get our shovels out. Prepare our snow blowers. Make sure we have supplies in the car in case we get stranded. We need to prepare for the second coming of Jesus.

How do we do this you may ask. Well, we need to pray. We to be in close communication with The Son. Talking with Him daily. Then we need to dive into Gods word. Read Scripture to see what God wants from us and how to live until Jesus' return. We need to repent of our sins and get right with God! Start living the life that He has called us too. We need to share our faiths with others. We want others to know about Jesus and the salvation that only He can give!

How many times have you woken up in the morning to be surprised by snow? It wasn't called for or even in the forecast. Yet, there it is. All over the ground and your car. Very inconvenient to say the least.

1 Thessalonians 5:2 The Passion Translation

2 For you already know quite well that the day of the Lord will come unexpectedly and as a complete surprise.

Just think, one day, Jesus will return. Just like that unexpected snowfall. But unlike the snow, His return will not be an inconvenience. It will Glorious! So be prepared. ALWAYS!!
