JOEL
1:1-2:17 - ‘Joel’ means ‘the Lord is God’.
The Lord is our God.
He is ‘gracious and compassionate, slow to anger and abounding in love...’.
Let us ‘return to the Lord our God’.
Let us ‘return to Him with all our heart’.
Let us look to Him for His ‘blessing’ (2:12-14).
Alongside God’s promise of blessing for those who return to Him, there is His Word of warning for those who take no notice of Him and pay no attention to His Word: ‘The Day of the Lord is near.
It will come like destruction from the Almighty... Let all who live in the land tremble, for the Day of the Lord is coming.
It is close at hand - a Day of darkness and gloom...’(1:15; 2:1-2).
God wants to bless us.
Let us ‘cry out’ to Him for His blessing: ‘To You, O Lord, I call’ (1:14,19).
2:19-3:21 - Each of us is ‘in the valley of decision’.
We must make sure that we are prepared for ‘the coming of the great and dreadful Day of the Lord’.
God has given us His promise: ‘Everyone who calls on the Name of the Lord will be saved’ (2:31-32; 3:14).
The Lord promises great blessing to those who call upon Him.
He ‘will pour out His Spirit’ upon us.
He will do ‘great things’ for us.
He will be our ‘Refuge’ and ‘Stronghold’.
He will fill us with ‘joy and gladness’.
He will fill our hearts with ‘praise’ (2:20-21,23,26,28-29; 3:16).
Make sure that you ‘call on the Name of the Lord’.
Make sure that you do not miss out on the great blessings the Lord gives to those who call on His Name.
Make your decision now - ‘I will call on the Name of the Lord’ (1 Kings 18:24).
