Thursday Devo

Read Luke 21:20-38. It is important to remember the bold headings over the paragraphs are not original. The writers of the New King James Added them. Here they seem to be accurate but there are a few places where they could be miss leading. The main thing is - think for yourself - especially on the parts that are added by man! Some would argue the heading "The Destruction of Jerusalem is also a prophecy of what will happen in the future where as just reading this heading might simply remind us of A.D. 70.

v. 29-33 make it clear that are signs that will hint at what is to come. The key as you look at all the signs is that in the end times they will all be happening simultaneously. 

v. 34-38 gives a general but much needed warning - always be ready.

questions
1) how much do you think about Jesus' return?
2) how that might that change your day - today?

prayer
Lord, let us be counted worthy to escape all these things that will come to pass and stand before the Son of Man.
