Surely I Come Quickly

The final promise of the Savior and the final prayer of the saint who recorded it are found in the last verse of God’s Holy Word.   

These sixteen words  teach a truth so majestic that it will only be fully comprehended when the Lord Himself returns in the clouds for His people.

Revelation 22:20 “He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus.” 

This is a restatement of the glorious promise He made to His disciples the night before He went to the cross, John 14:1-3.  

I get excited about the return of the Lord — actually, I get homesick waiting. 

There’s a heavenly pull in hearts of the saints for Christ’s return  - Phil. 1:23; Phil. 3:20.  

Even so, come, Lord Jesus.
