I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Sunday morning, the 2nd of March, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.
We start in the Gospel of Mark 13:32:
“But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.”
No one knows the time when He is returning, not even Jesus. We need to be careful that we are not fooled by a man who says he knows when the Lord is coming back. The truth is not in him because the Bible tells us not even the angels in Heaven, not even Jesus Himself knows the hour. Don’t be fooled!
You know the gypsy that goes along with his little painted wagon with his wife and children, along the country roads, that beautiful painted wagon, pulled by the horse, he comes to the farmer’s gate and he says, “Have you got anything for me to repair?” He normally sharpens knives, he repairs pots and pans and he sells all kinds of trinkets for the children and his wife says, “I can tell your fortune.” And the housewife is fooled, the husband is working in the field and she sits down with her crystal ball and she starts looking into the ball and she tells the housewife everything she wants to know. ”You are going to have a lot of prosperity, things are going to go well, you are going to write a book, you are going to be famous.” Then the housewife says, “How can you prove to me that you know what is going on?”
You see, the gypsy’s wife is very clever. Before she knocked on the door, she went around the back and she saw all the washing on the line. She saw the husband’s overalls, she saw two little dresses, one probably for a girl about fourteen and another about ten, and a little boy’s trousers - must have been two or three years old, and she tells the gullible housewife, “Oh yes, I know that you are married.”
She said, “How did you know that?”
“Oh no, I know, and your husband is a big man.”
“Yes, that is right, he is!”
“And you have got two daughters, one is about fourteen and the other about…” and the lady is sucked in by lies.
But on a serious note, you say, “Well, what can we do if we don’t know when the Lord is coming back?” Well, if we look at Mark 13:37, the Lord Jesus says: “
And what I say to you, I say to all: Watch!”
That is what we have got to do, watch and pray. We have got to be ready for the coming of the Lord. Oh, for me it couldn’t be soon enough, but let’s carry on and let’s work hard like He is coming in a thousand years, but let’s be prepared so that even if He comes tomorrow morning, we will be ready.
Jesus bless you and goodbye.
