While none of us know the exact time and hour when Jesus will return again, it is our job as Christians to prepare for His Second Coming. However, many Christians are far from being ready for this coming day.
In a podcast with John and Lisa Bevere, the couple discussed why His Second Coming is what we should be focused on.

John Bevere points out that Revelation discusses how the bride, the people of Christ, are to prepare themselves for this imminent return.
“It doesn’t say He clothed her, although He has clothed us with the robes of righteousness…but she has made herself ready,” he says.
The Beveres explain that Revelation discusses how Jesus has seen our actions, our works. These will be taken into account at the very end, not necessarily our heart’s desires, plans or intentions. It is the things that we did for the kingdom of God that will be taken into consideration.

“He’s talking about your labor of love,” John says. “He’s talking about your involvement in building His Kingdom. Are you on the sidelines? Are you just going to church every single Sunday?”
Lisa Bevere also makes a keen point that we should take seriously as we consider what the Lord truly desires from us.
“He’s not asking for our money; He’s asking for our life,” she says.
Jesus does not want us partially. He wants every bit of our hearts, our lives and everything we have to give Him. He wants to refine us like gold and make us to be more like the image of Christ.
“The reason why God rebukes, why He chastens, is that He prunes us so that we can bring forth good fruit,” Lisa says.
