Just Like He Said

2 Thessalonians 2:5
Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things?

A few years ago, while traveling the same road  just about everyday, I told my wife about some huge rocks that we're going to fall from a cliff on this road. Every time we would travel this road I always glanced over and looked at those rocks. Every time I looked I would say to those in the car with me, "Those rocks are gonna come down someday soon."  It had gotten so routine for me that my wife and boys would say, "Yeah, yeah someday those rocks are going to fall." I would always respond with, "You better believe it! Mark my words."

As we were traveling home from church one Sunday morning, we suddenly came to a barricade. As soon as I saw this I started yelling, "I told you! I told you! That huge rock has finally come down." Sure enough, that's exactly what happened. So needless to say every time I tell them something now they take me a little more serious, maybe.

God has given us His word. He has warned us in places. He has assured us in places. There have been promises given unto us as well as scriptures of protection. God has spoken purpose as well as prophecy to us in His word. He told the disciples that no stone would be left upon another there in Jerusalem and you know what?  I've seen those stones lying on the ground myself. Just like He said!

Go and read John Chapter 14 before you start your day today. He has told us that He has gone to prepare a place for us and to not let our hearts be troubled. Mark His words... He has gone and it will happen. Just like He said!
