Topic :Live For Eternity.
Memory 2 Peter 3:11. Since all these things will be destroyed in this way, what kind of people should you be? Your lives should be holy and dedicated to God,
Bible Reading : 2 Peter 3:7-9 GNB. Key Verse : v9.
But the heavens and the earth that now exist are being preserved by the same command of God, in order to be destroyed by fire. They are being kept for the day when godless people will be judged and destroyed. But do not forget one thing, my dear friends! There is no difference in the Lord’s sight between one day and a thousand years; to him the two are the same. The Lord is not slow to do what he has promised, as some think. Instead, he is patient with you, because he does not$ want anyone to be destroyed, but wants all to turn away from their sins.
Christianity is a life of serious relationships and walk with God destined to end in heaven or his presence. Before Jesus Christ left the earth, he told us that he was going back to the Father, he promised to prepare a place for us in the heavenlies, so that he could take us home to be with him forever at his return. ““Do not be worried and upset,” Jesus told them. “Believe in God and believe also in me. There are many rooms in my Father’s house, and I am going to prepare a place for you. I would not tell you this if it were not so. And after I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to myself, so that you will be where I am.” John 14:1-3.
Some people doubt the word of God because of reasons best known to them. They don’t believe that Jesus is coming back to harvest the earth like a farmer. They mock believers and things of the Spirit because to them his coming has been spoken of from the time they were born till they grew up, they haven’t seen the fulfillment. “First of all, you must understand that in these last days some people will appear whose lives are controlled by their own lusts. They will mock you and will ask, “He promised to come, didn’t he? Where is he? Our ancestors have already died, but everything is still the same as it was since the creation of the world!” They purposely ignore the fact that long ago God gave a command, and the heavens and earth were created. The earth was formed out of water and by water,” 2 Peter 3:3-5.
Today, we must not forget that the life we have here is temporary one. We have to live our lives carefully therefore to make sure that we please God. We must always remember that everything we are gathering here on earth will not cross over to eternity with us, except our works. This understanding will reduce greed, crime and wickedness of men among us. If men really know that the best car they enjoy driving and the opulent houses they build and other stuffs that makes life good is reserved for fire on the last day, they won’t pursue such things at all cost or in a manner that will offend God. This day, we have to with consciousness that we are sojourners here on earth. To that extent we are not taking any material things away from here. We shall return to God just the way we came, with nothing. We have to do everything within our reach to make sure that we make heaven which is a home of bliss and eternal fulfillment at the end. “I appeal to you, my friends, as strangers and refugees in this world! Do not give in to bodily passions, which are always at war against the soul. Your conduct among the heathen should be so good that when they accuse you of being evildoers, they will have to recognize your good deeds and so praise God on the Day of his coming.” 1 Peter 2:11-12.
Prayer : Thank you Lord Jesus for preparing a place for me to be with you forever in your presence. Help me to live the rest of my life with the consciousness that am a stranger here on earth. Keep me from anything that will prevent me from finishing in victory on the last day in Jesus wonderful name…. Amen 🙏🏿.
Yearly Bible Reading : Mark 10:17-31.
