THE GLORY OF TRUE CHRISTIANS THURSDAY MARCH 2
TEXT: JOHN 17:22-26
Key verse: “Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory” 1 Peter 1: 8
As believers on earth Christ has given us the glory His Father gave Him. Christ has given His followers glory in this present life. He has made us incomparable to other creatures in this life. Christian glory in this present life includes the following: Power of son ship; righteousness and holiness; Being the light in this dark world; Exceeding knowledge of the great God; Suffering for a just cause; Protection and ministration of angels; Anointing of the Holy Spirit. Christ returned to His original glory, the glory of His oneness with His Father, of His divinity, eternity, authority, love and the unsearchable glories as we shall see Him when He shall return to rapture the waiting, holy, spotless and blameless church. Beholding Christ’s glory is to be transformed in to His own glory.
The future glory of believers include the following; Glorious resurrection body; Citizenship in the new heaven and the earth; The presence and comfort of God; The heavenly mansion and crowns; Being as heavenly angels; Eternal life and joys of God not yet known. What makes you a child of God is the obedience you show toward His word. Having come to Christ and His church, you must not display the disobedience common in the world. Disobedience is the common characteristic of sinners in the world. God is holy and has called you to holiness therefore, be obedient and holy in all aspects of life and relationship. The main duty of man is to fear the Lord, keep His commandments, obey His voice and serve Him. As you accept Jesus Christ into your life and become a child of God, obey Him fully from the beginning to the end. Obey whatever the Lord tells you. The obedience that God is expecting from us is not the partial obedience of sinners. These ones being in their sins have no power for sustained obedience in difficult times. Christ-like obedience comes from the heart.
Thought for the day: . Beholding Christ glory is to be transformed into glory.
Song for the day: Coming down down down (2x), the glory of the Lord is coming down. . .
Bible reading for the day: Numbers 28-29; Mark 9:1-29

UNDERSTANDING ETERNITY WEDNESDAY MAY 10 TEXT: Psalm 90: 1 - 2 Key Verse: “The Lord is King forever and ever: the heathen are perished out of his land Psalm 10:16 People that understand eternity are always careful. Eternity means forever and ever, it means ever-lasting, ever-living, never dying. Trillion upon trillion years, eternity is still on, in fact it is life without end. There are two extreme ends of eternity: The kingdom of God called third heaven where God the Father, God the son, God the Holy Ghost, twenty-four elders, saints of God that make heaven, holy angels of God, and entire host of heaven dwell now presently; Hell-fire, where Satan, demons, and sinners that have died in their sins are presently kept. God is the One that introduced eternity. He lives forever. It is not a choice, the One who created us is forever, hence you will live forever, but what matters is where you will live eternally. Remove God from the way, then t...
