Are you eagerly awaiting His Return?
*************************************
The Bible says that true believers aren’t of this world. Nothing in this world is to make us more excited than the place Jesus had gone to prepare for us! Philippians 3:18-21 says :
“… For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ: whose end is destruction, whose god is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame—who set their mind on earthly things. For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself…”
Are we weeping for those who walk in the world?
Is our mind set on earthly things?
Are we holding fast to our heavenly citizenship?
Are we walking in the path of victory and not of destruction?
Are we eagerly waiting for our Saviour?
Are we aware of the fact that this lowly body of ours will soon be transformed?
As Paul said to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4:8:
The crown of righteousness is awaiting not only himself but all those who love His appearing!
This is the hope of the believer!
The world and the worldly church will keep it away from you! They will reduce the idea of His Soon Return to take His bride (rapture) to the level of tales and fables! Why? Because without this hope we will become worldly and world minded!
Satan doesn’t know of His soon destruction! But we do! And this knowledge is POWER!
Awaiting His Return,
Amir
