PEACE

  PEACE John 14:19-31  Devotional:- “Peace I leave with you, My peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid” (27) NKJV Peace has been the desire of every nation and tribe. Even the United Nations (UN) is set up for peacemaking in the world. But the more the world seeks peace, the less they have it. This is because man cannot give peace. Until the world embraces the Prince of Peace, her peace may not be established. Though we are in the world, we are not of the world. The love of Christ for us has given us peace. He is the Prince of Peace (Isaiah 9:6). The world does not know this because they are not of his own. Peace is a product of the love of God for you. If you don’t have it, receive it from today. This peace begins in our heart, and it goes on to affect everything around us. Since the world does not have it within, they cannot manifest it. Jesus said, He has given you His peace. So, you have it fro...

HEAVEN CITIZEN

HEAVEN CITIZEN

Philippians 3:17-21
Devotional:- “For our citizenship is in heaven." (v.20)

    Almost everyone on earth is aware that one day each man will leave for a final destination. God, the beginning and the end of all things, have decided the end of every man (Revelation 1:8). There are just two destinations or a final place for every man. It is either heaven or hell. Each man must end in one of them. Since God has created man as a creature of choice, He has well created two places and leaves each man to his choice. Heaven is a place of eternal pleasure with God, while hell is a place of eternal torment with the devil.

Look here; your choice of accepting Jesus Christ into your life has qualified you to be a citizen of heaven (John 3:16). Heaven is the place of eternal life. Jesus is not a religious leader but the only begotten of the Father sent to take as many as will accept His gospel to the Father (John 3:18). He is the way to the Father (John 14:6). When we follow Him, we will get to the Father.

Accepting Christ into your life means you have accepted the spirit of God in you to be a new creature and give you a new life (I Corinthians 12:4). So you are a registered citizen of heaven. You are not going to be one day. You are already one by the spirit of He that dwells in you. Except the spirit of God is not the one controlling your life. Do you know that it is ignorance to pray that you want to get to heaven? See, you are a citizen. That is your homeland (Philippians 3:20). AMPL. You go there when you are ready. You don’t need a special prayer to approach the embassy since the passport on you is of heaven (Philippians 1:22-23). The question is, are you a citizen? Your new birth is your passport, while the Holy Spirit is your multiple and special visa. You can always go and come back without any harassment by any customs or immigration. Some of us go there daily during worship. Share up, though it is not time to go permanently, but when it is time, it will be directly in Jesus' name. 

Prayer: Lord, help me never to throw away my passport to heaven.

“A CITIZEN HAS A LEGAL RIGHT TO HIS HOMELAND ANYTIME.”
