Who shall be able to stand?

Daily Light Devotions - June 27 - Morning

Who shall be able to stand?

for the great day of their wrath has come, and who can stand?" 1 

But who can endure the day of his coming, and who can stand when he appears? For he is like a refiner's fire and like fullers' soap.  2 

After this I looked, and behold, a great multitude that no one could number, from every nation, from all tribes and peoples and languages, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, with palm branches in their hands,  I said to him, "Sir, you know." And he said to me, "These are the ones coming out of the great tribulation. They have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. They shall hunger no more, neither thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb in the midst of the throne will be their shepherd, and he will guide them to springs of living water, and God will wipe away every tear from their eyes." 3 

There is therefore now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus.  4 

For freedom Christ has set us free; stand firm therefore, and do not submit again to a yoke of slavery. 5
