Text:Mark 13:31
Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away.
It is important for every believer to know that this present earth and heaven shall soon pass away. Apostle Peter made it clear that the day of the Lord shall bring an end to this present home of man. He said, *"But the day of the Lord will come as a thief in the night, in which the heavens will pass away with a great noise, and the elements will melt with fervent heat; both the earth and the works that are in it will be burned up." (2Peter 3)*
This is one truth that needs to be established in your heart-everything in this present world shall all pass away, except God's words. So, *anyone who is wise will place more value and priority on Jesus's Words above this present earth and all that is contained therein in an immeasurable way.*
The words of Jesus is an enduring word, it lives and endures beyond this present earth and heaven. Having known this, you must also know that anything you build with the materials of this present earth and heaven will certainly pass away. It is therefore wise for you to build with materials that will never pass away which is Jesus' words.
Jesus likened every hearer of His words to a builder. When you hear, but you do not do what you hear, you are simply building on sand. Such building shall be demolished by rain, floods and wind. But when you are a doer of His words, then you are building on the rock. Nothing will shake your building. It will stand for ever. (Matthew 7:24-27).
All that you see in this world shall pass away. Hence, anyone who is a lover of this present world shall pass away with it, but those that love and do the will _(word) of God_ shall abide for ever. (1 John 2:16).
Let Jesus' words abide in you richly,and be the doer of same, then you will become an enduring and a lasting vessel of God. Colossians 3:16
