Second Coming of Jesus

The Growing Buzz Around IT’S TIME

I am amazed at the rising interest in my newest book, It’s Time: Letters to the Bride of Christ at the End of the Age. Many people are helping position this book to find its audience more easily.

Someone sent me a list of books about the end times, and It’s Time has found its way to the top of the list:

 

Most especially, I’m grateful for how people are finding hope and comfort in this book, not the fear and dread often associated with the end of the age. That’s why I wrote it. Here are some recent emails from some of my readers.

Ben, coordinator of a book club:

It’s Time!: Letters to the Bride at the End of the Age, is a deeply stirring and contemplative work, one that feels both timely and timeless. The way it weaves Scripture, reflection, and a quiet sense of expectancy creates a space for readers to pause, listen, and rediscover intimacy with God amid a restless world. What struck me most is the gentle conviction at the heart of your writing. You don’t call readers to fear or urgency, but to love, light, and steadfast faith, the kind that transcends circumstance and reminds us that hope was always meant to be lived, not simply awaited. The vision of believers preparing their hearts as the world turns toward uncertainty feels not just prophetic, but profoundly personal.

Books like It’s Time! Don’t just speak to the moment; they help transform it. They remind us that faith is not about waiting for the end but awakening to divine presence in the here and now.

Mary:

I bought the audio edition. It is like we are seated around the table, and you are talking to me. I find comfort in the words as they land gently in my heart.

Judy:

I received my copy of It’s Time! And started reading it. My heart is so uplifted, much like the first time I read He Loves Me! I’ve read it many times and have shared it with my friends and family. He Loves Me opened the eyes and heart of both my husband and me. It was a love I had longed for as a child growing up with an abusive father. My husband, who recently died, was the first person who helped me begin to understand true selfless love and friendship. I want to thank you for all you’ve done. He Loves Me! was such a blessing. It’s Time! has the same ring of truth to my heart as did He Loves Me! I’ve always wanted to thank you.

Kate:

You have a poetic way of talking about a raw subject. Your reflections on Christ’s return and your call for the Bride to rise in love, light, and resilient faith are timely, deeply moving, and truly Spirit-led.

Merry Usman, Salt of Heaven:

Your book carries a powerful reminder that regardless of when Jesus returns, we are called to live as people of hope, surrendered to His purpose, and anchored in truth. The poetic beauty and urgency of your writing echo the heartbeat of Christ’s call to His Church—awake, ready, and radiant.

And finally, someone created this video to promote this book at the recent Frankfurt Book Fair:

“A Tender, Urgent, Spirit-infused Call”

First, I want to thank all of you who helped us save the petrol station in Kenya, which supports impoverished families near Kitale. As of last Friday, we were short almost $5,000 from reaching our goal. Someone called that morning and wanted to provide whatever we still needed. So, we had all we needed to help our friends. You have so often amazed me with your generosity, and it spills over into great thanksgiving to God for how he has helped us time and time again intervene on their behalf.

Additionally, I would like to share with you a review I received from Citi of Books regarding my new book, It’s Time: Letters to the Bride of Christ at the End of the Age. They have captured the heart in both the content and spirit of what I wanted this book to convey. For someone not associated with my book or familiar with what I do at Lifestream and TheGodJourney, I’m blown away by their gracious words:

Wayne Jacobsen’s It’s Time! is a tender, urgent, and Spirit-infused call to the heart of every believer who dares to ask: What if Jesus is coming back sooner than we think—and are we living like it matters? In this moving collection of spiritual letters, Jacobsen writes not with fear or fanaticism, but with deep love and prophetic insight—guiding Christ’s followers into readiness not just for His return, but for the kind of radiant, resilient faith needed in these final hours.

Drawing from the imagery of the Bride of Christ, Jacobsen paints a portrait of a people set apart—longing not for escape, but for intimacy with the Bridegroom. His tone is pastoral and poetic, rooted in Scripture and overflowing with wisdom born of experience and prayer. As he walks the hills near his home and listens to the whisper of the Spirit, he passes on that whisper to us—reminding us of what it means to live faithfully in an age clouded by darkness and deception.

This is not apocalyptic speculation. It’s spiritual preparation. With honesty and clarity, Jacobsen reminds us that whether Christ returns in 10 years or 150, there must always be a generation willing to:

  • Love beyond self-preservation
  • Shine brighter than the lies of the age
  • Walk in unshakable trust amid the shaking of nations
  • Anchor hope not in outcomes, but in God’s sovereign story

What makes It’s Time! so compelling is that it doesn’t scream for attention—it sings. It calls quietly, yet powerfully, to the Bride of Christ to awaken, to prepare, and to live as though eternity is nearer than we think.

Wayne Jacobsen has given the global Church a gift: a love letter from heaven echoed through the voice of a faithful servant. It’s Time! is not just about eschatology—it’s about transformation. It’s about what kind of people we’re becoming as we wait, watch, and witness. Whether you’re weary, wondering, or wide awake, this book will call you higher—to readiness, to holiness, and to Jesus.

Don’t just read it. Respond to it.

Because maybe… it really is time.

Wow! I am so grateful.

I’m currently writing the final chapter of Part 2, and then the book will be available in its entirety.  If you don’t have your copy of Part 1, you can order it from Amazon on Kindle or in paperback. The ebook is only $4.99, and the paperback is $7.99.
