We, the people of the Lord are a mighty army advancing! In today’s daily word of God, we are reading from the second chapter of the Book of Joel. The coming day of the Lord is soon approaching. We are called to sound the trumpet and warn the people of His soon coming judgement upon the earth.
God is getting His army in position to advance and move out. We are the army of the Lord! How exciting is it to know that you are apart of God’s special task force that He will use in this battle. At the dawning and rising of the sun, you will see this army arise. Are you a soldier in the army of the Lord?
The Coming Day of the Lord
Shout a warning on my holy mountain.
Let all the people who live in the land shake with fear.
The Lord’s special day is coming; it is near.
And it will be a dark and cloudy day.
At sunrise you will see the army spread over the mountains.
It will be a great and powerful army.
There has never been anything like it before, and there will never be anything like it again.
The Army of The Lord Marches
The army will destroy the land like a burning fire.
In front of them the land will be like the Garden of Eden.
Behind them the land will be like an empty desert.
Nothing will escape them.
They look like horses.
They run like war horses.
Listen to them.
It is like the noise of chariots riding over the mountains.
It is like the noise of flames burning the chaff.
They are a powerful people, who are ready for war.
Before this army, people shake with fear.
Their faces become pale from fear.
The soldiers run fast.
They climb over the walls.
Each soldier marches straight ahead.
They don’t move from their path.
They don’t trip each other.
Each soldier walks in his own path.
If one of the soldiers is hit and falls down, the others keep right on marching.
They run to the city.
They quickly climb over the wall.
And they climb into the houses.
They climb through the windows like thieves.
Before them, earth and sky shake.
The sun and the moon become dark, and the stars stop shining.
The Lord calls loudly to his army.
His camp is very large.
The army obeys his commands.
His army is very powerful.
The Lord’s special day is a great and terrible day.
No one can stop it.
