Heaven On Earth

Jesus replied, “If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him.”
John 14:23 New International Version

THOUGHTS ABOUT TODAY’S VERSE…
Did you know you can have Heaven on earth right now?

Did you notice what He said? “If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. (and then) My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him. “He said we (The Father God, The Son Jesus, and The Holy Spirit) will come to you and make our home with you. That’s here and now on earth, not when we get to heaven! At many Christian funerals, the preacher or speaker emphasizes how Jesus has left to make ready a house in His Father’s mansion for us to join Him in heaven. Then He is going to come back for us. But in these verses here, Jesus makes what I believe to be an even more important promise. He’s telling us that until it is time for us to come be with Him in His mansion in Heaven, He will come live with us here and now on earth. It all hinges on one thing, our willingness to obey Him. Do you want Him to live with you here and now? It’s not a bad deal, is it? We do not have to wait until we get to heaven to experience the God kind of life, we are supposed to have heaven here on Earth! So let’s not allow obedience to be a forgotten word in our lifestyle. Let’s not fall prey to the sin that caused Lucifer to fall from heaven and become Satan. Let’s do the will of God. His yoke is easy and His burden is light. Then Jesus and the Father will come to us, here on earth, and make their home with us.

So He said to them, “When you pray, say:

Our Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven. (Luke 11:2)

MY PRAYER…
Father, thank You for providing us with Your Word as our Guide in life. Thank You for creating an operating manual for my life here on earth, Your Holy Word. My request, Father, I need Your abiding presence to face the challenges of life. As You have upheld Your children through the ages, I am thankful to greet each day knowing that I will not face it alone. But I know that You are here with me each and every day, living in my heart. Father, let me be an instrument of Your peace, harmony, and unity here on earth. In Jesus’ precious name I pray.
Amen
