The Last Trumpet - Daily Devotional by Max Lucado

Christians, upon the signal of Christ, will be transported into the presence of Christ. This rescue will be activated by the conclusion of the church age. Or, as the apostle Paul wrote, when “the full number of the Gentiles come in“ (Romans 11:25). The Lord will come with a loud command. At his side will be the sole figure identified in the Bible as an archangel—Michael—the great foe of Satan.

We will hear a trumpet at the rapture. Roman soldiers learned to respond to three types of trumpets. The first prompted them to rise and strike their tents. The second announced it was time to fall into line. The last trumpet was the signal to march away. Christ will signal for us to march away—either out of the grave or off the earth—and “we will be with the Lord forever.”
