TICKET TO ETERNITY

Proverbs 7:1-3

“My son, keep my words,

And treasure my commands within you.

2 Keep my commands and live,

And my law as the apple of your eye.

3 Bind them on your fingers;

Write them on the tablet of your heart.”

 

Jesus taught us the Lord’s Prayer so that we pray to the Father to give us our daily bread. Jesus said in John 4:32-34, “…I have food to eat that you know nothing about…My food…is to do the will of him who sent me and to finish his work.” There is something more important than the food on the table, healing, blessing, breakthrough that we are looking for in this life. Notwithstanding, we need those things as long as we live here on earth, they are all earthly things. Therefore, do not set your heart on what is earthly. Let us remember there is life after life. What are we going to bring to the life after life, before God? Earthly things end as life is over. But there is only one thing that is eternal that we will one day bring to see the Father – the Word of God in our heart, His commands. The Word of God in our heart is our ticket to eternal life.

 

In Matthew 22:21 Jesus said, “So give back to Caesar what is Caesar’s, and to God what is God’s.” What is of God must return to Him. With the Word of God in your heart, you can one day return to Him in the world of glory. God’s Word is Spirit that created the material world. This means, the Spirit is superior. Why then, today do people adore the inferior, instead of the superior?

 

Do you know that from the beginning, God wanted men to appreciate the superior? Adam and Eve failed the test of faith to keep the superior command of God because the inferior looked very tempting. I pray that God would strengthen you to treasure the Word of God with all your heart in all you do as it is the ticket to eternity, in Jesus’ name.

SECURE YOUR HEART

4 December 2024

A house built on the rock stands forever.
By faith, we begin to look not at our weakness but believe that we have the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Righteousness is right standing before God. In His presence, your heart is secured.

SHOWER YOUR SPIRIT

27 November 2024

Despite taking great care of our physical appearance, so many of us are discouraged, frustrated, fearful, angry, bitter and offended inside – and this is what shows through our words and behaviour, no matter how much we try and hide it. Why? Because our heart is not cleansed and our mind not refreshed.

CONVICTED BY YOUR CONSCIENCE

14 November 2024

Often, the loudest rebuke is the one from the inside of us. Because the motive of our heart cannot be concealed, and no one knows us better than we do ourselves. So, if we are convicted by our conscience, there is hope for us.
