IN THAT DAY

Luke 17:31 (NKJV) 31 In that day ... the one who is in the field, let him not turn back.
   Jesus is put on the spot, the incomplete question may have sounded like this, " If you are the Son of God, when does the Kingdom of God come," the answer from the Lord startles the hearer, "The kingdom of God is within you." The Day of God's appearing will not be the meteorologist call, it will be as no one expects, the normal sinful condition of men will rule the day and God will burst on the scene like lightning from a sudden storm. The men questioning Jesus, are predictable, they have a motive in mind, expose those who do not agree with their sordid beliefs, not much has changed, mens hearts are still evil and in need of cleansing.
   For the believer the transformation from not having a relationship with God to knowing Him personally is staggering, once walking in the mandates of our own flesh, now desiring the heart of God. What controls your heart, what will you do "In that day?"
Heavenly Father help us to look for You, help us to acknowledge You alone are God, help Lord that we might be ready for that day. May each day bring new and stronger desires to please You. Amen
