TODAY'S WORD
I Peter 1:4
TO AN INHERITANCE INCORRUPTIBLE, AND UNDEFILED, AND THAT FADETH NOT AWAY, RESERVED IN HEAVEN FOR YOU.
It is always disappointing to see when you attend a program where a seat of honour was reserved for someone that never showed up. Imagine someone that was supposed to be given an award of excellence but never showed up till the occasion was over, the master of ceremony would have called and called and expectations will turn to disappointment. This is exactly what will happen in heaven on the last day, roll call will be made because according to our text, there is a reservation for me and you. It will be a great tragedy that God has prepared a reservation for you in heaven and you are not able to make it. I pray for you, this shall not be your portion in Jesus name.
John 14:1-3; LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED: YE BELIEVE IN GOD, BELIEVE ALSO IN ME. IN MY FATHER'S HOUSE ARE MANY MANSIONS: IF IT WERE NOT SO, I WOULD HAVE TOLD YOU. I GO TO PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU. AND IF I GO AND PREPARE A PLACE FOR YOU, I WILL COME AGAIN, AND RECEIVE YOU UNTO MYSELF; THAT WHERE I AM, THERE YE MAY BE ALSO. Beloved, there is a seat with you name in heaven, Jesus went about 2000 years ago to prepare it ahead of you. Do all that is in your power not to miss that reservation. This you can do by living a holy life as you draw close to God. Pray with me: Father, I give my life to you completely. On that resurrection morning, when you come to collect your people, let me never be found wanting in Jesus name.
