THROUGH JESUS WE ENTERED INTO GOD’S EVERLASTING KINGDOM
Therefore, since we are receiving a kingdom which cannot be shaken, let us have grace, by which we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear. – Hebrews 12:28
In Daniel 7:18, we read that “The saints of the Most High shall receive the kingdom.” Through Jesus we have received an immovable, unshakable kingdom, that is perfectly established forever and can never be destroyed. This is God’s kingdom, the most perfect place that could ever exist. And is the place where we will spend our eternity.
We can make it to heaven only because of God’s grace, so we are to give grace to others too. The easier we forgive, the happier we are. The only fear that we should have, is the fear of the Lord, which is the highest form of respect and honor for who God is. By keeping a grateful heart that gives God all the glory, we serve Him well and He finds pleasure in us.
SUGGESTED PRAYER
Thank You dear Lord with all my heart for making a way for me to spend eternity in Your perfect, unshakable Kingdom. The hope I have in what is waiting for me there helps me to continue the good fight of faith during hard times. Thank You my Lord, for all the suffering and pain You went through in my place, so that I will inherit heaven with You. Lord please help me to have a grateful heart and worship You with reverence and awe, giving You all the glory for all the good in my life. In the Name of Jesus. Amen.
