Jesus is coming soon! We don’t know the time nor date. But we do know that He is coming. How will we greet our Lord? What will be the state of the church, His bride? Are we going to be in hiding? Hiding from prosecution? From Antichrist? Hungry? Thirsty? Naked? Afraid? Sick in pandemics? Terrified of happenings around us? Scared of all things listed in the Book of Revelation?
I’m my personal humble opinion, I believe the Bride of Jesus will be glorious! Full of hope and awaiting her Bridegroom! Not hiding out from the world, quietly waiting to be rescued. Not in panic, she know that her God is her protector. But just as a bride awaits her wedding day she is preparing, making sure her gown is perfectly clean and wrinkle free ( white robes of holiness) that she is adorned into the beautiful jewels (her good deeds), She makes her guests list and invites people to her wedding (sharing gospel with others, bringing people to Christ), preparation for the ceremony ( her purification) and reception (Ministry or missionary work ) She’s in very close relationship with the Bridegroom, she want to know Him deeply ( staying in the will of God and fasting and praying Staying in the word of God)and finally the night of the wedding she is in anticipation of the wedding day to come to finally see her Bridegroom, to spend eternity with Him. the one she loves! She is happy! She is double checking all the details to be prepared and ready! And in her beautiful white bridal gown she stands there as a light to the world to see that she is ready to be with her Bridegroom!
