Hi and welcome back to afaithtalk.com.
I read this verse this morning and while I normally go for full sentences, this struck me so that I knew He wanted me to share it.
so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him.
Hebrews 9:28 NIV
It’s just wonderful news. Even I, though I’m really familiar with lots of Scriptures, sometimes miss these nuggets tucked into fantastic books. And it is so much assurance of what I am hoping so much for, “His appearing.” And the reminder to wait. Not ignore it, not forget it, expectantly wait. He is going to come again and with Him, our salvation.
Regarding missing great things though, that’s why you need to read over and over again. Different things will ‘jump’ out at you at different times in your life. If nothing ever has, pray and ask for that. In fact, let’s do that right now.
Lord Jesus, I ask for You to give each reader of this post the ability to see what You want them to see every time they read some of Your Word. Make the words seem to jump out at them. You are worthy all our praise. In your holy and precious name, Amen.
