Hello there, So this is my first blog post...and guess what? I am going to write about Jesus :D A couple weeks ago, I came back from IHOP in Kansas City, MO. It was completely God and entirely nuts. It was a divine setup from our God on High. I've been praying to go to IHOP for awhile, and God answered this prayer by paying for my expenses-free airfare and all! I bought this book at the Forerunner Bookstore in IHOP called, "Excellencies of Christ" by Allen Hood, who is the director of the Forerunner School of Ministry. This book focuses on the "delight of delights-His Son". Moments ago, I read through some of the introduction of the book. It talks about how many of the churches today do not place Jesus as their main focus, but God will soon change that by revealing His Son's glory. Jesus is coming back! He is coming back for his bride, the church. Yes, we are his bride, we are his reward. What an honor it is to be his wife.
The whole world will see the manifest presence, the shekinah glory of God. What does shekinah glory mean? The word shekinah is actually not written in the scriptures, but was coined by Jewish rabbis refering to the divine visitation and prescence of God on earth. It literally translates to "he caused to dwell," and expresses the "Very Presence of God". An example of the shekinah glory of God was when He had rested in the tabernacle amongst His people, when He had filled his presence in the holy of holies and when He had revealed Himself in the form of a fiery cloud in Exodus. That's shekinah glory.
What shall we (the bride) do while we wait for His second coming?
Father, I desire that they also whom You gave Me may be with Me where I am, that they may behold My glory which You have given Me; for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. O righteous Father! The world has not known You, but I have known You; and these have known you that You sent Me. And I have declared to them Your name, and will declare it, that the love with which You loved Me may be in them, and I in them. (John 17:24-26)

I can imagine the glory of Jesus, as he comes back as a warrior.
Jesus is coming back for His bride, a spotless and beautiful bride.
When is He coming?
His eyes are like blazing fire, and on his head are many crowns...Revelation 20:12
Jesus is coming back for His bride, a spotless and beautiful bride.
The Spirit and the bride say, "Come!". Revelation 22:17
When is He coming?
He who testifies to these things says,
" Yes, I am coming soon."
Revelation 22:20
What shall we (the bride) do while we wait for His second coming?
Let us rejoice and be glad and give him glory! For the wedding of the Lamb has come, and his bride has made herself ready. Fine linen, bright and clean, was given to her to wear." Revelation 19:7-8
He loves us sooooo much!
