“The Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let the one who hears say, “Come!” Let the one who is thirsty come; and let the one who wishes take the free gift of the water of life. He who testifies to these things says, “Yes, I am coming soon.” Amen. Come, Lord Jesus.”
Revelation 22:17, 20 NIV
When a wonderful event is going to happen in your life, you often get an invitation to that special time. It confirms to us that we are indeed invited, included in the call for such a joyous time. We then begin to plan on this event, to make ready for the celebration that will occur.
Jesus in the last verses of the Bible, lays out his last invitation to us for his salvation. Let the ones who are thirsty come and partake of the living water of our Savior. We are indeed invited and the invitation goes out to whosoever. That means all of mankind, including you and I. There is a catch, we have to accept the invitation, drink from the water of life- Jesus.
Jesus concludes by saying simply, yes I am coming soon! We will make thousands of decisions this coming year but none more important than our decision for or against Christ. I pray you come and drink the water of life and know my Lord as your Savior. Then your response will be like mine- yes come Lord Jesus come! No matter your life, your past, He has invited you to his kingdom- Come now!
In Christ
