Prepared place…

  Prepared a place…

Reading through the Old Testament books again…

The promise of a promised land for the Israelites is a major theme…over and over…generation after generation throughout history…and that small piece of land continues to this day to be in dispute…at some point in time that promise will be fulfilled…maybe this generation or the future…only

God knows the time, the final circumstances… they wait expectantly…

As Christians, we have a “promised land” as well…no given date on it yet either… 

We all have to trust in the preparations…promises…we wait expectantly as well…for the return of the Messiah…

“Let not your hearts be troubled. Believe in God; believe also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also.

John .14.1-3

 But, as it is written,“What no eye has seen, nor ear heard,nor the heart of man imagined,what God has prepared for those who love him”—

1Cor.2.9

 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

Heb.11.16

 since you know that you will receive an inheritance from the Lord as a reward. It is the Lord Christ you are serving.

Col. 3:24

 For this reason Christ is the mediator of a new covenant, that those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance—now that he has died as a ransom to set them free from the sins committed under the first covenant.

Heb.9.15

 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. 

This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.

1Pet.1.3-6

Thank YOU…
