Fearlessly and boldly John said, "Repent! Change direction. The kingdom is at hand. Get ready. The time is now!"
Verily I say unto you, Among them that are born of women there hath not risen a greater than John the Baptist…—Mat_11:11 (a)
No wonder Jesus said of all those born of women, John was the greatest. People came from miles and miles, in those days no small feat, to hear him, sensing he spoke with accuracy and authority. But catch this—Jesus went on to say,
…notwithstanding he that is least in the kingdom of heaven is greater than he.—Mat_11:11 (b)
Do you know whom Jesus is talking about? He's talking about you. Jesus said you're greater than John with all of his power and authority. Why? Because you have seen things John couldn't.
John would later question and wonder, "If You are truly the Messiah, Jesus, why don't You do something to establish Your authority?" John struggled and stumbled and didn't see things all that clearly. You do. You understand Jesus came as the Suffering Savior before He will come again as the Conquering King. The Lord has placed you in His kingdom, and Jesus Himself said the least in the kingdom is greater than this greatest of prophets.
What a privilege! I feel so honored that God would place us in this era and include us in His kingdom. He could have had us born centuries before Christ and made us great prophets calling down fire from heaven, raising the dead, healing the lepers. Instead, He said, "I'm going to do something greater. They're going to be part of My church."
I and many of HIS faithfull watchmen say Repent! make sure of your election while it is still free - The kingdom is at hand. Bride get ready. The time is now! and the blast of the Shofar is ready to sound - the invitation will be delivered - COME UP HERE.
It is the tenth of Nisan 5770 tomorrow - gather your lamps and expect the GROOM of the ages!
Love in the Coming King of Kings - JESUS MASCHIAGH NAGID
