PRESENT AND FUTURE GLORY OF TRUE BELIEVERS
TEXT: JOHN 17:22-26 
Key verse:  “And the glory which Thou gavest Me I have given them; that they may be one, 
even as We are one.” (John 17:22).

Christ's final prayers for His true followers before his crucifixion contained a fervent request for believers to behold and partake in His glory. As believers on earth, He has given us the glory His Father gave Him. Christ has put in our uniqueness, honour, and majesty. He has made us incomparable to any other creature of His in this present life. Christians' glory in present life includes: 
(i) Power of sonship
(ii) Righteousness and holiness 
(iii) Light in the dark world. 
(iv) Excellent knowledge of the great God. 
(v) Fellowship with the triune God. 
(vi) Suffering on just course. 
(vii) Protection and accompaniment of angels. 
(viii) Anointing of the Holy Spirit 
(ix) Love and unity among believers and 
(x) Answer to prayers. 

Christ has prayed that the believer may be with Him where He is to behold His glory. Beholding Christ glory is being transformed into His glory. The future glory of believers includes the following: Glorious resurrection body, citizenship in the new heaven and earth, the presence and comfort of God, heavenly mansions, crowns, eternal life and joys of God not yet known. Hallelujah! 

1 Corinthians 2:9 “Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.” 

Thought for the day: Heaven is the final home for true Christians.
Song for the day: Hallelujah is our heavenly language.
Bible reading for the day: Ezekiel 32-33; 1 Peter 1

HOLINESS REVIVAL MOVEMENT WORLDWIDE Daily Devotional EVERY WORD OF GOD FOR DAILY LIVING  _BY_ *PASTOR PAUL RIKA*  Int'l Director        (Holiness Revival Movement Worldwide) THURSDAY NOVEMBER 1 , 2018  _TOPIC:_    *YOU WILL SUCCEED AS CHRIST DID BY PRAYER*           TEXT: John 16: 23-24. KEY VERSE: It came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, one of His disciples said, Lord, teach us how to pray as John taught his disciples. Luke 11: 1. When Jesus Christ came to us in the flesh, He went into the business of prayer because He was promoting the attribute of God as a prayer-answering God. He would not render that attribute idle or redundant. Nobody knew how John did it, but Jesus reveals here that the success you saw in the ministry of John the Baptist, the victory you saw in his ministry, is because he was a prayer man. John so much valued prayer. He saw the essentials of pr...
