My Glorified Body

This life is temporary. It didn't come here to stay but is merely passing through.

2 Corinthians 5:1 For we know that if our earthly house of this tabernacle were dissolved, we have a building of God, an house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens.

"We know" that Christ is alive, therefore, we know that death cannot claim us. Because I live, ye shall live also (John 14:19).

This body is only the house we live in. When a believer dies, the body goes to the grave, but the spirit goes to be with Christ.

When Jesus returns for His own, He will raise the dead bodies in glory, and the body and spirit shall be joined together for a glorious eternity in heaven.

The glorified body is called "a building of God, a house not made with hands"--our house which is in heaven. My glorified body will be like that of my Lord and Savior--perfect.

The Intimacy of God

The intimacy of God sees you as if there were no other creature in His universe. He sees you without and within. He knows your every thought and imagination before they are formed in your mind.

Psalm 139:4,7 For there is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, thou knowest it altogether. Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?

God hears your unspoken prayer, interprets the message of your tears and your burdened heart.

Job 23:10 But he knoweth the way that I take: when he hath tried me, I shall come forth as gold.

God knows your path, the bends and the potholes. He will give you peace in your valley and joy in your dark night.

God doesn't force Himself upon anybody. We choose Him or refuse Him. Eternity (Heaven or hell) is at stake. Make the right choice.

Lest I Forget

Psalm 103.2 Bless The Lord, O my soul and forget not all his benefits.

How could I forget? How could I be so foolish as to be distracted from His glory by mundane and trivial events of life?

But for God's grace I would have squandered my life by seeking things that never satisfy. May I never forget the cross of Christ and Redemption.

And may I always remember that I am never beyond the touch of my Lord.

God has repeatedly lifted me from the jagged rocks of affliction and pain and restored me with spiritual strength and victory. May I never forget.

But we do forget from time to time. When we remember, the problems of life fade into insignificance, and God becomes more glorious and more precious than before.

Roll back the curtain of memory now and then

Show me where you brought me from

And where I could have been

Remember I'm human and human's forget

So remind me, remind me, dear Lord.

The King Is Coming!

The church impatiently awaits the return of Jesus. Prophetic signs are everywhere. Regardless of critics who redicule this part of scripture, God always keeps His promise.

Luke 21:28 And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up and life up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

I believe that the Bible teaches that after the rapture of the saints a seven year tribulation will encompass the earth. 

After the tribulation the sun and moon are darkened and the stars fall from heaven and "the sign of the Son of man" will appear in heaven (Matthew 24:29,30).

Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

Signs of the times are everywhere

There's a brand new feeling in the air

Keep your eyes upon the eastern sky

Lift up your head redemption draweth nigh
