Today is Ascension day and it is a truly Holy day for the followers of Christ. Today is the day Jesus ascended into Heaven. He has gone ahead of us to prepare a mansion for us in Heaven.
In His FATHER's House are many mansions. And Jesus has promised us one there if we are faithful to believe in Him and to repent of our sins and to confess Him as our Redeemer.
If you are like me, a pre-millennial Rapture believer, I believe that Jesus will come in the clouds to fetch us. First the dead, then the living and we shall be caught up to meet Him in the clouds in the twinkling of an eye.
Unfortunately those who are left behind will have to suffer the tribulation for seven years.
But we as Christ followers need to keep today Holy because today we celebrate the fact that the disciples witnessed Jesus ascending into Heaven. They were eye witnesses of this event. (Psalm 68:18 and Ephesians 4:8-10).
Paul the Apostle quoted and applied Psalm 68 verse 18 and Ephesians 4 verses 8 to 10, in that Paul writes that Jesus is the Lord who was among the angels in Sinai who spoke to Moses there and from whom he received the oracles of GOD to give to Israel. Of Him it may be truly said that He ascended on high, far above the Heavens, the starry heavens and into the third heaven, the more glorious seat of the divine Majesty.
Thank YOU HOLY JESUS for loving us and for going ahead to prepare a place for us.
Prayer: ABBA FATHER, I thank YOU that Jesus is my Redeemer and that HE sits at YOUR right Hand right now. FATHER I thank YOU that I can be among those who are raptured should the Rapture happen during my life on this earth.
I thank YOU in the Holy Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
Stay amazingly Jesus blessed today!
