Scripture for the Day (October 1, 2015)
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory. (Matthew 24:30)
This is a follow-up to yesterday’s devotional. I heard this song on the radio today by Casting Crowns and I just felt the words spoke volumes about our fig tree devotional. The lyrics are listed below and you can listen to a live performance on youtube at the following link:

Glorious Day (Living He Loved Me)
By Casting Crowns
One day when Heaven was filled with His praises, One day when sin was as black as could be
Jesus came forth to be born of a virgin, Dwelt among men, my example is He
Word became flesh and the light shined among us, His glory revealed
Living, He loved me, Dying, He saved me, Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever
One day He’s coming, Oh glorious day, oh glorious day
One day they led Him up Calvary’s mountain, One day they nailed Him to die on a tree
Suffering anguish, despised and rejected, Bearing our sins, my Redeemer is He
Hands that healed nations, stretched out on a tree, And took the nails for me
Living, He loved me, Dying, He saved me, Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever, One day He’s coming, Oh glorious day, oh glorious day
One day the grave could conceal Him no longer, One day the stone rolled away from the door
Then He arose, over death He had conquered, Now is ascended, my Lord evermore
Death could not hold Him, the grave could not keep Him, From rising again
Living, He loved me, Dying, He saved me, Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever, One day He’s coming, Oh glorious day, oh glorious day
One day the trumpet will sound for His coming, One day the skies with His glories will shine
Wonderful day, my Beloved One bringing, My Savior Jesus is mine
Living, He loved me, Dying, He saved me, Buried, He carried my sins far away
Rising, He justified freely forever, One day He’s coming, Oh glorious day, oh glorious day

Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. (Matthew 25:13)
