A VICTORIOUS SHOUT

“For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:”
1 Thessalonians 4:16 KJV

One happy and wonderful day Jesus Himself is coming back for us with a shout.  If you have ever been to a sporting event and heard people shouting for their favorite team, you know how loud they shouted.  However, no shout will ever equal the shout that Jesus is going to give when He comes back for us.

Jesus won the victory over satan on the cross when He died for our sins.  As much as we want to see Jesus, our precious Saviour wants to see us more.  He loves us so much He died for us and shed His own blood and He wants to see us.  What a Saviour!  What a Friend, this Jesus of Nazareth!

Do you know this Jesus?  I didn’t ask if you are saved.  I asked if you know Him.  Do you know what makes Him happy and what makes Him sad?  How much time do you spend with Him during the day?  If we are spending more time watching television than we are with Jesus, we are hurting Him and breaking His heart.

Think about it!  We are going to have the privilege of seeing our risen Saviour face to face.  How I long for the day when He comes back for us.  I am going to give Him the biggest hug I have ever given anyone and tell Him for all eternity how much I love and appreciate Him.  Are you ready to meet Him?

Tell Jesus how much you love Him and appreciate Him.  Just as we want to be told He loves us, He wants to be told we love Him.
