The Day of the Lord and the Trumpet of the Lord, Part 1

Joel 2
In the army, when the trumpet sounds at dawn, soldiers must wake up and give full attention to their duties. God's covenant people had become so secure and complacent in their military and financial prowess, they had fallen asleep spiritually and forgotten the Lord. Joel chapter 2 sounds a trumpet call to wake up and turn their full attention to the Lord.

Joel 1
Sudden personal tragedy, the difficulties of everyday life, and the steady stream of bad news can make it seem like our world is spinning out of control.

The Day of the Lord Revealed by Days from the Lord, Part 1

Joel 1
In the 8th century BC, Israel was at the highest point of their popularity and influence, militarily and economically, since the days of Solomon – when suddenly, catastrophe struck. In this historical context Joel came declaring that this calamity pointed to the ultimate day of calamity – the coming Day of the Lord, bringing God's judgment on all peoples and nations that ultimately rejected Him.

The Day of the Lord is a fixed day that is certainly coming, an inflexible day of righteous judgment upon the world, and God's people are to warn the world of this coming Day of the Lord, as we seek to live each day in light of it.
