”then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.“
1 Thessalonians 4:17 KJV
Paul explains, “Then we who are alive will join them, transported together in clouds to have an encounter with the Lord in the air, and we will be forever joined with the Lord”. To ‘be caught up’ is being caught up in the victory of Christ’s unveiling. There is a cloud of witnesses around us who encircle us as clouds. The Lord Jesus will be coming for His Bride to rise up and have an encounter with Him. We must always stay awake and be alert, because we don’t know the day or the hour when the Bridegroom will appear. But when He does, we rise up to have an encounter with Him as we say, ”I am my Beloved’s, And my Beloved is mine. He feeds His flock among the lilies.” He knows we are His since He has also stamped His seal of love over our hearts and has given us the Holy Spirit like an engagement ring is given to a bride—a down payment of the blessings to come! Hallelujah!
