Grace for your spirit October 2, 2009

Grace for your spirit

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 a city for them. Hebrews 11:16

The Otd Testament people of faith, like Abraham, died without receiving all the promises of God. They never owned land, and they realized they were stranger and aliens in the world. If they had been seeking a earthly home, they had the opportunity to go and claim it, but that were not looking for roots on the earth. By faith, they knew God was preparing a eternal heavenly home for them. May we capture the faith of Abraham. We live in a temporary alien world, and if we aren’t careful, it can become our whole goal in life. May we look beyond any blessings on this earth and yearn for the heavenly city God has prepared for us. This world it not our home, we are just passing through.

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ be with your spirit

Philippians 4:23
