The Lord Is Knocking: Are You Willing to Open Up Your Heart to Welcome His Return?

It is prophesied in the Book of Revelation, “Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear My voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with Me” (Revelation 3:20). All those who truly believe in the Lord want to welcome the Lord’s return and feast with Him while He is knocking at our doors. So how is the Lord knocking at our doors? How can we recognize God’s voice and welcome Him?

The Lord Jesus said, “I have yet many things to say to you, but you cannot bear them now. However, when He, the Spirit of truth, is come, He will guide you into all truth: for He shall not speak of Himself; but whatever He shall hear, that shall He speak: and He will show you things to come” (John 16:12–13). “My sheep hear My voice, and I know them, and they follow Me” (John 10:27). It is also prophesied many times in Revelation, “He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” From this, we can see that when the Lord returns, He would express words to guide us into all truth. That is, the returned Lord would speak to knock on the doors to our hearts in the last days. Thus, the key to welcoming the Lord’s return is listening for the returned Lord’s words.

At this point, do you eagerly want to know how to recognize God’s voice? In fact, it’s not that difficult to recognize God’s voice. From the words of Yahweh and the Lord Jesus in the Bible, we can know that God’s voice is full of authority and power, which is inimitable to man, and not possessed by any corrupt human being. In addition, the Lord’s words carry God’s dispositions and are expressions of what God has and is. Now, let us look at the Lord’s words.

Almighty God says, “Throughout the universe I am doing My work, and in the East, thunderous crashes issue forth endlessly, shaking all nations and denominations. It is My voice that has led all men into the present. I cause all men to be conquered by My voice, to fall into this stream, and submit before Me, for I have long since reclaimed My glory from all the earth and issued it forth anew in the East. Who does not long to see My glory? Who does not anxiously await My return? Who does not thirst for My reappearance? Who does not pine for My loveliness? Who would not come to the light? Who would not look upon the richness of Canaan? Who does not long for the return of the Redeemer? Who does not adore Him who is great in power? My voice shall spread throughout the earth; I will face My chosen people and speak more words to them. Like the mighty thunders that shake the mountains and rivers, I speak My words to the whole universe and to mankind. Hence the words in My mouth have become man’s treasure, and all men cherish My words. The lightning flashes from the East all the way to the West. My words are such that man is loath to give them up and at the same time finds them unfathomable, but rejoices in them all the more. All men are glad and joyful, celebrating My coming, as if an infant had just been born. By means of My voice, I shall bring all men before Me. Thenceforth, I shall formally enter into the race of men so that they will come to worship Me. With the glory that I radiate and the words in My mouth, I shall make it such that all men come before Me and see that the lightning flashes from the East and that I have also descended unto the ‘Mount of Olives’ of the East. They will see that I have already long been on earth, no longer as the Son of the Jews but as the Lightning of the East. For I have long since been resurrected, and have departed from mankind’s midst, and then reappeared with glory among men. I am He who was worshiped countless ages before now, and I am also the infant forsaken by the Israelites countless ages before now. Moreover, I am the all-glorious Almighty God of the present age! Let all come before My throne and see My glorious countenance, hear My voice, and look upon My deeds. This is the entirety of My will; it is the end and the climax of My plan, as well as the purpose of My management: to have every nation worship Me, every tongue acknowledge Me, every man repose his faith in Me, and every people be subject unto Me!”

After reading these words, do you feel the authority and power of God? Think about this: Apart from God, who else can reveal our wish to reunite with the Lord in such detail? Who else can speak to the universe and testify to the fact that the Lord has come back? These things can only be achieved by the only true God who rules over all things. Now the Lord has returned and He is Almighty God in the flesh who has expressed millions of words. Those words are the expressions of God’s dispositions and the truths that we need to be purified and saved.
