CALL TO GLORY-2

Text : 2 Thessalonians 2:14.

With this purpose in mind, he called you through our proclamation of the gospel so that you would obtain the glory of our Lord Jesus, the Messiah.

Glory is described as great beauty or splendour that is so overwhelming. It is considered powerful. Glory is honour, admiration, or distinction, accorded by common consent to a person or thing.

Being called to the glory of Jesus Christ means that God invites us—through faith in Christ Jesus to share in His life, His holiness, His purpose, and ultimately, His eternal glory. This calling is both a present reality and a future hope for every believer.

To be called to His glory first means being called into a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. It's not just about rules or religion, but about being united with Him.

1 Corinthians 1:9 says, “God is faithful, who has called you into fellowship with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord.”
 *You’re invited into intimacy, friendship, and transformation through knowing Jesus. How well are you exploring and enjoying this relationship?* 

The Bible teaches that those who trust in Christ will ultimately share in His glory, meaning we will be transformed and live forever in His presence.

Romans 8:17 says,“...if we are children, then we are heirs—heirs of God and co-heirs with Christ, if indeed we share in His sufferings in order that we may also share in His glory.”

Sharing in Jesus’ glory often includes sharing in His suffering. This is one truth that many believers do not want to hear. Glory follows suffering, just as just Christ suffered before entering glory, Luke 24:26, believers may walk a hard road but it ends in eternal reward and glory. Truly, when you persevere to the end, you will know and say like Paul that our light affliction here is working for us an exceeding weight of glory. (2 Corinthians 4:17).

2 Thessalonians 2:1-17.

 *PRAYER FOCUS*

THE GOOD FIGHT-2

Text:  1 Timothy  6:12   Fight the good fight of faith, lay hold on eternal life, whereunto thou art also called, and hast professed a good profession before many witnesses. Another thing to pursue in fighting the good fight of faith is Godliness. We understand through the Holy scriptures that godliness is profitable unto all things.   *For bodily exercise profiteth little: but godliness is profitable unto all things, having promise of the life that now is, and of that which is to come.* 1 Timothy  4:8.  You will reap the reward of your godliness not only when you get to heaven, but from here on earth. And this is why we are admonished to exercise ourselves unto godliness. (1 Timothy  4:7), because godliness with contentment is great gain.1 Timothy  6:6. Godliness is the practice of conforming to the image of God by reflecting the nature of the kingdom of God in the course of everyday life. In other words, godliness is living and portray...

WAY MAKER-2

Text: Isaiah 43:19 Behold, I will do a new thing: now it shall spring forth: shall ye not know it?  I will even make a way in the wilderness,  and rivers in the desert. God promised that He will do a new thing for you, and that He will make a way in the wilderness and rivers in the desert. He has done this before, and He will do it again even in your own life.  When the children of Israel left Egypt, the Egyptians pursued after them, all the horses and chariots of Pharaoh, and his horsemen, and his army, and overtook them, encamping by the sea, beside Pihahiroth, before Baalzephon.(Exodus 14:9). Just like anyone would react, the Isrealites became so fearful because there is neither way forward nor back for them to escape. Before them was the red sea, behind them were the Egyptian armies. They became perplexed and began to murmur against Moses. It is possible you are also in a situation like the Israelites- No way forward, and no way behind. Things may appear like you are ...

TIME IN ETERNITY

Text : Psalms 90:12  So teach us to number our days, that we may apply our hearts unto wisdom._  Our God dwells in eternity past, present and future. In between these phases of eternity, He created man to dwell in Time. When man sinned, he fell short of God's plan, and death came in.(Rom 3:23). Death therefore short circuit man's life in eternity. This is the reason Jesus.came.  He had to come into TIME in order to remove the PAUSE  death HAD on man.  For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16.  Every man born into this world automatically becomes an eternal being. The question therefore is, which side of eternity would such a man dwell? Everlasting life or Everlasting condemnation? Time is an opportunity given to man to trade for eternal life. You have limited time to exchange for eternal life in eternity.  Time offers you the opportunity to ga...
