“The King Is Coming” + The Story of Abraham
During a time when many people are searching for hope, we pray that you will find peace in this beautiful song, as we turn our eyes to heaven and await the day when we can all get off “this old ball of mud” and go home! Then, following the song, be inspired by the incredible story of Abraham and his “tithed cows.” “The King Is Coming” The marketplace is empty
No more traffic in the streets
All the builders' tools are silent
No more time to harvest wheat
Busy housewives cease their labors
In the courtroom no debate
Work on earth is all suspended
As the King comes through the gate
O the King is coming
The King is coming
I just heard the trumpets sounding
And now His face I see
O the King is coming
The King is coming
Praise God, He's coming for me
Happy faces line the hallways
Those whose lives have been redeemed
Broken homes that He has mended
Those from prison He has freed
Little children and the aged
Hand in hand stand all aglow
Who were crippled, broken, ruined
Clad in garments white as snow
I can hear the chariots rumble
I can see the marching throng
The flurry of God's trumpets
Spells the end of sin and wrong
Regal robes are now unfolding
Heaven's grandstand's all in place
Heaven's choir now assembled
Start to sing "Amazing Grace"
O the King is coming
The King is coming
I just heard the trumpets sounding
And now His face I see
O the King is coming
The King is coming
Praise God, Praise God, Praise God
He's coming for me! By William J. Gaither

The End of the World as We Know It
by Vinnie MacIsaac | 20 March 2020 | The 80’s band R.E.M. sang “It’s the end of the world as we know it—and I feel fine.” That lyric has been stuck in my head since the COVID-19 story broke. I don’t know when you’ll be reading this, but I wrote it four days before my […] Source: https://atoday.org/the-end-of-the-world-as-we-know-it/

Sabbath: From Dust to Stars

Sabbath Afternoon
Read for This Week’s Study: Dan. 12:1-13; Rom. 8:34; Luke 10:20; Rom. 8:18; Heb. 2:14-15; John 14:29; Rev. 11:3.
Memory Text: “Those who are wise shall shine like the brightness of the firmament, and those who turn many to righteousness like the stars forever and ever” (Daniel 12:3, NKJV).
The book of Daniel begins with Nebuchadnezzar invading Judea and taking captives to Babylon; the book of Daniel concludes, in contrast, with Michael standing up to deliver God’s people from end-time Babylon. That is, as shown all through Daniel, in the end, the very end, God works everything out in favor of His people.
As we have seen, too, Daniel and his companions remain faithful to God and display unparalleled wisdom amidst the trials and challenges of the exile. Likewise, when facing tribulation, God’s end-time people will also remain faithful, especially during “a time of trouble, such as never was since there was a nation” (Dan. 12:1). Like Daniel and his friends in Babylon, they will display wisdom and understanding. They will not only experience wisdom as a personal virtue but will be committed, as a consequence of that wisdom, to lead others to righteousness. Some will die or be put to death, and thus, go back to the dust, but they will be raised to eternity. As the biblical text says, “And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life” (Dan. 12:2).
Study this week’s lesson to prepare for Sabbath, March 28.
Amen!
