Our text today is Mark 13:24-27:
"But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun will be darkened, and the moon will not give its light, and the stars will be falling from heaven, and the powers in the heavens will be shaken. And then they will see the Son of Man coming in clouds with great power and glory. And then he will send out the angels and gather his elect from the four winds, from the ends of the earth to the ends of heaven. — Mark 13:24-27
The world will shake. The sky will go dark. The celestial order will collapse. And then, the Son comes. Not calmly in a manger. Not humbly on an ass. But in the clouds, through the sky, with power and in glory.
Jesus gives his disciples a vision of the end, but not to frighten them. To focus them. Because at the end of the chaos, there is a Conquering King. He's not coming to suffer. He's coming to reign for all time.
In the ancient world, clouds were often seen as symbols of divine authority and power from heaven. So when Jesus says He's coming "in the clouds," He's declaring exactly what Daniel saw centuries earlier (Daniel 7): The Son of Man receiving dominion, glory, and an eternal kingdom.
When all you see is tribulation, your heart will be filled with fear. But if you, like me, fix your eyes on Jesus breaking through the clouds, you'll be filled with hope and live free from all fear. This is where the story is headed. Not endless darkness. Not endless division. Not endless waiting. The Son of God is coming again.
And he's not coming to negotiate. He's not coming to debate, persuade, or die. He is coming to gather. To collect His people. To finish what He started. To make all things right.
So lift your eyes. Stop getting lost in headlines. Don't be shaken by the shaking. Because one day, what you believe in faith, you'll see with your own eyes. Faith will become sight. Hope will become reality. Long live King Jesus.
