Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words will by no means pass away.

One of the ways Corrie ten Boom survived the horror of a Nazi death camp was by focusing on the prophetic promises of Scripture. She loved the books of Daniel and Revelation, and she frequently reminded people, “Never be afraid to trust an unknown future to a known God.” She viewed biblical prophecy not as speculation but as solid hope that could never fail us.
When Jesus prophesied about the world of the end, He did it to give us hope and confidence to face difficult times. Prophecy is practical because it allows us to learn about what will happen so that we can know how to live today. Jesus told us in His sermon about the End Times in Matthew 24 that the earth and universe will one day perish. But His Word is eternal—and eternally hopeful.
Take time to study biblical prophecy and as you do so, ask the Lord to give you a growing sense of anchoring hope.
The Lord Jesus has promised to return. And He will. It may be very soon. In the meantime, are you taking hold of all the riches God has given us in Jesus Christ?
