To accelerate means to make haste; to make rapid progress. Acceleration is when someone or something is moving faster than the normal speed. Acceleration will cause you to experience rapid progress in an area where previously you had been stagnated. God\u2019s word for you this day is Acceleration. Acceleration in your spiritual life, finances, marriage, business, <!--more-->relationships, education, fruitfulness and much more.\u00a0 The first thing we need to be<strong> <\/strong>aware of that is being accelerated is the <em>second coming of Jesus<\/em>. Jesus is coming again and it is faster than we think. Pay no attention to people who are saying Jesus is not coming again, after all two thousand years have passed and He still isn\u2019t here. If this is two thousand years after, it therefore means we are two thousand years closer. Shouldn\u2019t we be alert and in expectation? Jesus is coming, whether the world likes it or not. Whether we expect Him or not, Jesus is coming. His coming is going to have a sense of urgency and acceleration; like a thief in the night. Jesus is coming soon; I pray that you will be ready. As Christians, if all we live for as Paul says, is in this world alone then we are to be pitied. Unfortunately, a lot of Christians have lost sight of eternity. They carry on living<strong> <\/strong>as though here and now is all there is to life. Their entire focus is on the pleasure of life and enjoying life. Wake up and be alert because Jesus is coming again. Believe me, and He is coming sooner than the world expects. I pray that as a Church we will be ready. Take this word of acceleration and pray it over your life. Let us, with a sense of urgency, hold fast to the teachings we have heard and bear fruit while we await Our Saviour, Jesus Christ.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><strong>Prayer<\/strong> [song]: \u2018Will you be ready when the Lord shall come?
