Advent Music: Every Day a Bible Song Towards ChristmasНамуна

Come, Lord Jesus

Patience. I will admit, there's still some room for improvement.. 😇 Luckily for me, the emphasis in the Bible seems to be on 'don't be afraid' rather than 'don't be impatient'. I feel God gave me some leeway there... 😋

Not so with God. He is patient beyond measure. And I'm glad He is, otherwise, I would not have been saved (or my wife) and there never would have been a Project of Love.

This song has scripture from the last book in the Bible, the last chapter, and the last verses.

It says, "Come, say the Spirit and the Bride. Whoever hears, echo, come!"

There's no denying the world is on its last legs. All creation is groaning. We're all tired. Still, if all you're doing is praying daily for Jesus to return, then you're missing the point.

It's like Peter says in 2 Peter 3:9: "The Lord isn’t being slow about His promise, as some people think. No, He is being patient for your sake. He does not want anyone to be lost, He’s giving everyone space and time to change." (NLT)

NOW is the time to reveal who God's sons and daughters really are! BE the salt, BE the light, BE a blessing wherever you are. SHOW the love of God. Pray for healing over the sick, and pray to cast out devils, we're the GOOD news people!

I love that the beginning of the Bible already shows the incredible patience of our loving Father. Methuselah, the oldest human ever to have lived, became 969 years old. Methuselah's long life was no accident. When Methuselah died, the flood came. Do you know what his name meant? 'When he is dead, it (the flood) shall come'. God waited till the very last moment, giving people time to change their ways.

So, be expectant, but keep extending the same Grace you've been given as well 🔥🙌

Revelation 22 – Come, Lord Jesus

17. “Come!” say the Spirit and the Bride.
Whoever hears, echo, “Come!”
Is anyone thirsty? Come!
All who will, come and drink,
Drink freely of the Water of Life!

20. “I’m on my way! I’ll be there soon!”
Yes! Come, Lord Jesus!

21. The grace of the Master Jesus be with all of you.
