What does this mean, Lord? This day of an eclipse is hyped with all types of end-times messages. I figure that It doesn’t profit me to fret, knowing You are in control. When the time of the great and magnificent day of your coming arrives, it will bring all glory and honor to You. It’s not about getting ready after receiving the memo. It is about being continually ready and in right relationship with You. That is right where I want to be, Lord, ready for your coming. Your Spirit testifies with mine. Grow my faith in your name and authority, Jesus, according to the good and perfect will of the Father. Amen.
“And all were amazed and perplexed, saying to one another, ‘What does this mean?’ But others mocking said, ‘They are filled with new wine.’ But Peter, standing with the eleven, lifted up his voice and addressed them: ‘Men of Judea and all who dwell in Jerusalem, let this be known to you, and give ear to my words. For these people are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day. But this is what was uttered through the prophet Joel: ‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares, that I will pour out my Spirit on all flesh, and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, and your young men shall see visions, and your old men shall dream dreams; even on my male servants and female servants in those days I will pour out my Spirit, and they shall prophesy. And I will show wonders in the heavens above and signs on the earth below, blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke; the sun shall be turned to darkness and the moon to blood, before the day of the Lord comes, the great and magnificent day. And it shall come to pass that everyone who calls upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.’” (Acts 2: 12-21 ESV)
