“But we are looking forward to the new heavens and new earth he has promised, a world filled with God’s righteousness.” 2 Peter‬ ‭3‬:‭13‬


In the years before Jesus came there were many prophecies of his coming. Signs to look for. Times of good and bad; of victories and defeats, but no Messiah. Then came the 400 years of silence.

No words of the Messiah’s coming. No signs pointing to his arrival. No hope. People lived and died and were forgotten waiting for a promise that didn’t come.

Then he arrived! In the heaven’s the Father said it’s time and his plan began. Paul writes that all of creation groans waiting for the fulfillment of God’s promise.

Don’t grow weary.

Don’t grow apathetic.

Don’t lose focus or doubt.

Someday he will give the word again and his plan of salvation which began with an empty tomb will be fulfilled in victory. Our salvation has present blessings with eternal perspectives!

Hallelujah. Come quickly Lord Jesus.
