Daily Devotional. For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be. Matthew 24:21. For the Believer, the Follower of Christ, the Lord uses Tribulation to:1, turn people to the Lord, 2, to separate the sheep from the goats, 3, to be Overcomers, 4, exhort to stay in the Faith, 5, work and Builds Patience, 6, it can’t separate us from Christ, 7, teach us to Comfort others in like troubles, 8, Joyful during, 9, we suffer together as Companions, 10, fear not tribulation, and 11, The Righteous shall come out of Great Tribulation. Testings, Trials, Troubles, and Tribulations, is any of this too hard to overcome? IF, I REPEAT, IF, there is no “Baptist Rapture” as many have taught in recent times, and the Great Tribulation is coming to everyone on the earth, than would this not be a time of Great Building for The Body Of Christ, a Preparing of The Bride Of Christ, a Full, Total, and Complete Culmination of all the Faith of the Saints of Old, and the Saints of New, to look up and see our Victorious Conquering King and Savior coming in the clouds as we all, the dead and living, in Christ, rise to Meet Him in the air to Escort Him back to earth as He sets up His 1000 year Reign? The Bride Of Christ has on Her Wedding Garment and the Great Tribulation is the Final Check to be sure all spots, all blemishes, all wrinkles, have been removed, and that nothing but Pure Righteousness, and Pure Holiness remain. Could it be that for the Church, the Body of Christ, this Tribulation is one last 7 times hotter furnace firing to remove the last of the dross from off the Gold, to only leave PURE GOLD REFINED IN THE FIRE, to last for eternity??? Christ is gathering the last of His lost sheep together into the fold. When He’s Finished, He’s coming back, and we will ALL, Be Blessed.
