Greetings In Christ Jesus!

I have learned that one of the very best things that ever happened to improve my state of mind about the way things are in the world was reading the Bible for myself for many reasons, which have changed my life greatly for the better.

Reading the Holy Bible, however, gives us an accurate view of how things are and shows us that God has revealed the fact that He has always retained His love and provision just as He always has no matter what kind of people we are! God’s great love is evident throughout the Word and therefore, we should come to a better understanding about everything and also be able to learn that God’s love and grace have been given and available from the garden of Eden up until this very second!

 

Old Testament Scripture Reading: Psalms 24:1 – 6 (KJV)

Psa 24:1 The earth is the LORD’S, and the fulness thereof; the world, and they that dwell therein.

Psa 24:2  For he hath founded it upon the seas, and established it upon the floods.

Psa 24:3  Who shall ascend into the hill of the LORD? or who shall stand in his holy place?

Psa 24:4  He that hath clean hands, and a pure heart; who hath not lifted up his soul unto vanity, nor sworn deceitfully.

Psa 24:5  He shall receive the blessing from the LORD, and righteousness from the God of his salvation.

Psa 24:6  This is the generation of them that seek him, that seek thy face, O Jacob. Selah.

New Testament Scripture Reading: Revelation 21:1 – 8 (KJV)

Rev 21:1  And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

Rev 21:2  And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.

Rev 21:3  And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.

Rev 21:4  And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.

Rev 21:5  And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.

Rev 21:6  And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.

Rev 21:7  He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.

Rev 21:8  But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

 Transforming Power Statements: 

1) Since God has allowed mankind to strive with each other for the sake of securing material things with no regard for the true owner, Who is also the Creator and the sustainer of all things, those who believe in the True King must, in like manner learn to operate in this world in accordance with the precepts of the unbelievers who have been granted temporary ownership of God’s assets until He restores His Kingdom to the “Citizens of Heaven” who shall then serve Him forever more!

2) Almighty God has promised the ones who believe in His Son Jesus (The Proven  Messiah) that they will inherit an everlasting kingdom that will never pass away, will have no more death, no more crying, no more pain nor suffering, and will be filled with the knowledge of the LORD as the waters cover the sea!

 

3) God has secured an eternal Kingdom for all who have believed in Him throughout all of time and has given absolute proof in time through the resurrection of Jesus Christ His Only Begotten Son so that all people who believe and trust in Him alone can know that they are Citizens of Heaven who are now living as ambassadors of Christ!
