A GLIMPSE INTO THE BEAUTY OF THE CELESTIAL CITY
MONDAY MARCH 26
TEXT: 2 CORINTHIANS 12:1-4
Key Verse: “And Enoch walked with God: and was not; for God took him” Genesis 5:24.
God in His mercy and great love for mankind has been revealing and is still revealing to us part of wonderful and beautiful things that awaits us in the celestial city. A saint was taken on a heavenly pilgrimage as Paul in our reading text and he shared his experience:
No sooner had I taken my seat in the chariot than I found I could converse with the angels with perfect understanding. There seemed to be a kind of comprehension of ideas without the effort of words; yet we spoke as spirits speak. I have often heard words spoken while in the body which were wholly in the ear of the soul, and yet most distinctly understood when there was no audible voice whatever -- the same as Paul's conversion experience when he heard a voice distinctly in his inner consciousness while those who journeyed with him saw no man from whom the voice came. I now asked, "Are you really and truly angels of God, about whom we have read and sung and heard so much about in the world?" "Truly we are," they replied, "but of our birth you know nothing, for in fact we were not born but created; not in the earth but in celestial regions. We have learned our lessons in the past eternities in the presence of God (Rev. 12:7-9), but we are glad to be your servants and helpers now. This has been our service ever since man was created upon the earth, but we can tell you more about ourselves at another time." (Ps. 91:11,12; Ps. 34:7; Heb. 1:13,14). I replied, "We have been strangers until this time, but you make me feel great confidence in your ability to safely guide the chariot. I have been looking forward to this time for many years, but did not know it was so near."
Reader, you better start thinking of this celestial city which we shall soon inherit. It is nearer than you can think or imagine and the Lord wants you there because it is prepared for a prepared saint like you.
Col 3:1-4 If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God. 2 Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth. 3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God. 4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.
Thought for the day: Are you a prepared saint? Are you ready? Watching and waiting?
Song for the day: I just want to be where you are dwelling daily in your presence….
