"Sound Of The Trumpet!"

"For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven

with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with

the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught

up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord

in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord."

(1 Thessalonians 4:16-17)

The Church awaits the sound of the trumpet, when we shall meet our Lord in the clouds. We've been instructed to "occupy" until that day arrives, so, we "tell them," individuals and crowds. We let not that day take us with shock and surprise, with the face of abandoned astounding wonder. For we've known there will be that blast from the heavens, and the lost will think it thundered.

That's why we share the gospel, with a lost and dying world;

eternity's at stake, so we dare not quit

We put aside our frailties, our troubles and our woes,

all for the lost; it's for the world's benefit

It's all about being a Christian, armed with His mighty weapons, the sword, the shield and the Spirit. To conquer the attack of the enemy, and teach others that there is no need at all to fear it. For, we're surrounded by a multitude of warring angels, sent in shifts to accommodate and rescue the saved; And usher them with robes of white and splendor, when it comes time for rising from the grave. So, rejoice ye warriors of the faith and stand tall and bold, for your trials are not in vain; they have a goal. You're preparing your deed to your mansion away beyond the stars, and a final home for your eternal unending soul.

So, why quit, O treasured warrior of the faith; you know

we're here for just a moment in time

This earth is not our home; we're just passin' through;

and we know this by the signs

We're on the home stretch now; don't let the enemy rob you, of your home beyond the skies. No sin is worth the chance of missing your flight, and then you're left behind, because of lies. Gird up your faith, O Saint of Almighty God; stand tall in the Word, and don't be numb. Determine now in your heart and mind that you'll heed the Master's Word, to "occupy till I come!"

Be ready, with your lamps filled with oil, for the thief

comes when we think not

So, make sure your spirit is full of the Holy Ghost,

burning bright and fiery hot

The Lord will meet us in the clouds, in the moment in the twinkling of an eye, and we shall rise in 1/44th of a second. Don't get left behind when He sounds the final blast; be sure you're wide awake when He inhales, and in a moment we are beckoned. It's the hope of the Christian to escape the terrible judgment; we have obeyed and served, in love with our Lover. He will come for His Bride in a brilliant blinding flash; it will all be over as we join Him in the clouds, in a momentary hover.
