Maranatha - The lord is coming: November 17th

When John lifted his eyes in prophetic vision, he saw something breathtaking — a massive multitude that no man could number, standing before the Lamb in dazzling white robes, shouting praise and waving palm branches in victory. They came from every nation, language, and background… and they all had one thing in common: they clung to Christ through great tribulation and washed their robes in His blood.

This devotional reminds us that the redeemed weren’t carried into heaven on beds of ease. They came through affliction, rejection, poverty, hunger, torture, disappointment, and fiery trials — yet they never let go of Jesus. Now they stand as conquerors, clothed in garments brighter than any earthly robe, crowned with glory, overflowing with joy as the courts of heaven echo with their triumphant song: “Worthy is the Lamb!”

One day soon, the universe will reveal that those who chose Christ — even when it cost them everything — were the wise ones. And those who held onto sin, self, and the pleasures of this world? They lost both worlds. But the faithful? They will stand near the throne, wrapped in eternal purity, finally home.
