There will come a day


Acts 2 14 But Peter, standing up with the eleven, raised his voice and said to them, “Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and heed my words. 15 For these are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. 16 But this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:

17 ‘And it shall come to pass in the last days, says God,
That I will pour out of My Spirit on all flesh;
Your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,
Your young men shall see visions,
Your old men shall dream dreams.

18 And on My menservants and on My maidservants

I will pour out My Spirit in those days;
And they shall prophesy.

19 I will show wonders in heaven above

And signs in the earth beneath:
Blood and fire and vapor of smoke.

20 The sun shall be turned into darkness,

And the moon into blood,
Before the coming of the great and awesome day of the Lord.

21 And it shall come to pass

That whoever calls on the name of the Lord
Shall be saved.’

“What do you want to be when you grow up?” was a common question asked by adults to me. Some would ask with options like “A fireman?” or “A policeman?” Later in life people asked the same question, but with different options like “A doctor?” or “A lawyer?” Funny, no one asked “How will you prepare for GOD?”

  • I have spent years preparing for a career.
  • I have spent decades preparing for employment.
  • I have spent a great part of my life focused on making debt and making enough money to clear it.

Peter explains to those who mocked the devoted people of GOD, that they have just witnessed the beginning of something huge. Men and women from all walks of life will proclaim the arrival of our LORD and Savior.

  • JESUS wants me to prepare for HIS return.
  • JESUS wants me to have others prepare for HIS return.
  • JESUS wants me to understand HIS truth and tell others about HIS great love.


There will come a day when every tongue will confess that JESUS is LORD. Some will praise HIM for being LORD and some will curse HIM because they chose to never surrender their will to HIM. I choose to Praise GOD!

  • Will you surrender your will to GOD?
  • Will you choose JESUS as your Savior?
  • Will you seek JESUS’s true name so you will be saved?
