Day 4: Jesus' Olivet Discourse: Preparing for His Return
Day 4: Jesus' Olivet Discourse: Preparing for His Return
with Dr. Jeff Warren and Rebekah Mompremier
Joel 2:28-32; Matthew 24:1-35
As we journey through Holy Week, we're invited to pause and reflect on Jesus' powerful Olivet Discourse. This teaching, found in Matthew 24, offers us a glimpse into the end times and Jesus' triumphant return. While the discourse speaks of wars, famines, and persecution, it's ultimately a message of hope and endurance. We're reminded that amidst life's trials, our faith can be our anchor. The imagery of Jesus' return 'like lightning from east to west' serves as a powerful metaphor for His undeniable presence and glory. As we contemplate these words, we're challenged to live with a sense of readiness and purpose, knowing that our actions today ripple into eternity. How might this perspective shift our daily lives and deepen our commitment to spreading the gospel?
Reflection:
- In what ways can we maintain 'perpetual readiness' for Christ's return without neglecting our present responsibilities?
- How might the concept of a 'simple kingdom' based on love transform our approach to daily life and interactions with others?
- How might the promise of Jesus' glorious return provide hope and comfort during times of persecution or hardship?
Simple Kingdom
Your Kingdom is simple
As simple as love
You welcomed the children
You stopped for the one
We want to see people
The way Jesus does
Your Kingdom is simple
Lord teach it to us
Your Kingdom is humble
As humble as death
His King is a Savior
Who gave His last breath
So may we die daily
Our pride laid to rest
Your Kingdom is humble
And the broken are blessed
Hallelujah
Hallowed be Your name
May we live
And breathe Your praise
And hallelujah
Let all creation say
Oh The King of Heaven reigns
Your Kingdom is coming
Your Kingdom is here
Alive in our waiting
At work in our tears
So come to us quickly
Forever our prayer
Your Kingdom is coming
Lord Jesus come near
Your Kingdom is backwards
It flows in reverse
What You call a treasure
This world calls a curse
The small become great and
The last become first
Your Kingdom is backwards
Lord teach us to serve
As it is with Your Kingdom
Let it be with Your church
