Joel KJV
The Day of the Lord is at hand! Destruction and waste is to come, famine, depravity, no wine, no vine, no seed, what! The sound of the trumpet is called, the enemy is on their way, the fire is set. Who will stop this destruction? Here we see how God's Judgment is to come. When is not specified, and for what exact sin is not said either, but in general God will come to judge all sin. Now how does this all tie into Jesus and the second coming?
First, the new wine will be removed from those that are drunkards (Joel 1:5), the vine is dried up (Joel 1:12), and the seed is rotten (Joel 1:17). Who is the new wine? Who is the Vine? What is the Seed? Ahh, this is the Lord and savior, Christ? He provides the new wine (Matt. 9/ Mark 2/ Luke 5/ Luke 22:20). He is the vine (John 15:5), and the seed is the spirit sown in a soul (Hebrews 2:10). So, with that connection lets see when the day of the Lord will come? Probably not before the Lord came to sow the seed, to provide the vine, and to bless the wine. Therefore, I take it that this prophecy is describing the second coming of the Messiah. Hence why there is no time given to the coming of this judgment Joel spoke of as no man knows the day or the hour as revealed by Jesus during His life (Matt. 24:26).
With all this said, Joel continues on in chapters two and three to declare that a way to be right with the Lord is possible, repent! Not in outward appearance but within, just as how Jesus heals and changes the heart. Let this book be a warning to us that we may find comfort in Christ so as to avoid the destruction that is to come. For the Lord Jesus Christ is the only means to escape this judgment of sin (John 14:6). Amen!
