Theme For David Jeremiah Daily Devotional March 16 2022 – Prophetic Markers
And so we have the prophetic word confirmed, which you do well to heed as a light that shines in a dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts.
2 Peter 1:19
Recommended Reading: 1 John 3:2
In order to explain to young children how long it will be before Christmas, parents may say: First, the weather begins to turn cooler. Then, we celebrate Thanksgiving. Then, we get a Christmas tree and decorate the house. Then, we shop for presents and put them under the tree. And then, it will be Christmas Day.
While no one knows the exact date of Christ’s return (Matthew 24:36), prophecy gives us signposts to inform our progress toward His appearing. At this stage in God’s prophetic timetable, Christ’s appearing for His Church (the Rapture of the Church) is the next event. Nothing stands in the way of this happening; it could happen today! But there are certain trends in the world which indicate that we are drawing closer to that day: tumultuous geo-political and economic conditions, deteriorating moral standards, and spiritual confusion. Those increasing trends mean we are approaching Christ’s return. Every believer must live with the understanding that today could be the day that we “see Him as He is” (1 John 3:2).
We are not a post-war generation, but a pre-peace generation. Jesus is coming.
