Continual Burnt Offering: Daily Meditations, December 31 (22:20-21)
“He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly, Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen” ―Revelation 22:20, 21.
THE last word ever heard from heaven, the last that shall be heard until the Lord’s return, was the promise of His coming again, and that quickly. God does not count time as we do. Not two days (2 Peter 3:8), according to His reckoning, have elapsed since Jesus went away. Soon He will fulfill His promise. The heart that loves Him looks for Him, and responds, “Even so. Come!” Till then there is grace for every moment of the way. The Old Testament closed with “a curse” because of man’s failure to keep God’s holy law. The New Testament closes with “grace,” because of Calvary. On the basis of the work there accomplished grace flows out in abundant fullness.
