Are You Ready For The Trumpet To Sound?

Then it came to pass on the third day, in the morning, that there were thunderings and lightnings, and a thick cloud on the mountain; and the sound of the trumpet was very loud, so that all the people who were in the camp trembled. And Moses gathered the people out of the camp to meet with God, and they stood at the foot of the mountain. Now Mount Sinai was completely in smoke, because the LORD descended upon it in fire. Its smoke ascended like the smoke of a furnace, and the whole mountain quaked greatly.

Exodus 19:16-18

Notice the words of Christ as you have just read the words spoken by Moses:

Then the sign of the Son of Man will appear in heaven… And He will send His angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they will gather together His elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

Matthew 24:30-31

Add to this the words of the Psalmist David as prophesies under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit:

“Gather My saints together to Me,
Those who have made a covenant with Me by sacrifice.”

Psalm 50:5

As Moses gathered all Israel to bring them into God’s presence at the sound of the trumpet so shall the angels be sent forth to gather Spiritual Israel at the sound of the great trumpet at the last day.

For the Lord Himself will descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of an archangel, and with the trumpet of God. And the dead in Christ will rise first. Then we who are alive and remain shall be caught (gathered) up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And thus we shall always be with the Lord.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-17

When the Lord descended the first time and Moses gathered the people, they remained at the foot of the mount, see: Exodus 19:17
But when the Lord descends again, we shall be “caught up to meet Him in the air“, no longer to remain at the foot of the Mt.Zion but taken up to the summit into God’s very presence, to stand with Christ upon the summit.

For says the Apostle John, speaking of this great and glorious Day:

Then I looked, and behold, a Lamb standing on Mount Zion, and with Him one hundred and forty-four thousand, having His Father’s name written on their foreheads.

Revelation 14:1

—in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, and the dead will be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.

1 Corinthians 15:52

When the trumpet is again sounded, we shall all be gathered unto Christ— incorruptible, immortal— and in that moment, we shall all be changed into beings of light! The echoes of that celestial sound will resonate through the heavens, signaling the dawn of a new era and a profound transformation.

Where will you be when the Trumpet sounds, Reader?

Will you be ascending up, embracing the divine call with open arms? or will you find yourself “remaining at the foot of the mountain,” hesitating, missing the glorious ascension?

It is a question that beckons reflection, demanding that we evaluate our spiritual journey and our readiness for the eternal promise that awaits us. Now is the time to prepare our hearts and souls, to ensure that when that trumpet “sounds long and waxes louder and louder”, that we are among those who soar towards the divine light, leaving behind the shadows of doubt and fear.

Think upon these things dear one—Jesus is Coming soon!
