FAITH MORE PRECIOUS THEN GOLD

What is it you have to offer God at the end of your life? Gold and silver? Your faith more precious then gold is what you have to offer. All of life is a journey of faith. Just as Abraham walked on earth by faith so also you too have been called to walk by faith to the promised land. Abraham never entered the promised land yet he looked to what was before him. We have entered the promised land by faith in the finished work of Jesus the Messiah. He has gone on before us and we can live in the living hope that we too will join Him one day. Now we can enjoy the fruits of faith as we enter the promised land. This is the Kingdom of God. We pray thy Kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven. Yet we live as if we belong to an earthly kingdom. His Kingdom is heavenly and we have been given the authority to rule and reign on earth as it is in heaven. In heaven there is no sickness, poverty or hatred and pride. These are earthly things that rob us of our heavenly inheritance. We have to believe and see and live in His Kingdom today. Never mind what the circumstances say. We have to live in His glory here on earth. His glory is His presence. In His presence is heaven on earth. Hallelujah.
