Heavenly Citizenship

Our citizenship is in heaven.  And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.-----Philippians 3:20-21

Do you ever feel like you are a stranger in a foreign land, especially when you wear a Christian tee shirt, or take out your Bible and start reading it in a public place, or how about when you go out to eat and you bow your head and pray over your meal?  Well that, my dear Brothers and sisters, is exactly who we are, "foreigners" in a STRANGE land, because our citizenship is not of this world.  We are citizens of Heaven.

And we DEFINITELY are awaiting the return of our King, the Lord Jesus Christ, to take us HOME to be with Him for ALL ETERNITY.  When He comes back He will have the POWER to CHANGE our old, decrepit, corrupt, sinful, bodies, into brand-spanking NEW and GLORIOUSLY IMPROVED, PERFECT in every way, SPOTLESS AND CLEANSED bodies.  AMEN AND HALLELUJAH!!

WHAT A DAY THAT WILL BE, WHEN MY JESUS I SHALL SEE, WHEN I LOOK UPON HIS FACE THE ONE WHO SAVED ME BY HIS GRACE.  WHAT A DAY, GLORIOUS DAY THAT WILL BE!!!

Are you looking FORWARD to seeing the return of King Jesus?  Can you CLAIM your citizenship is not of this world, but is in Heaven?  Are you looking FORWARD to having a BRAND-NEW, GLORIFIED, BODY?  Can you say, "WHAT A DAY THAT WILL BE?"

You sure can IF you will CONFESS your sins to God, BELIEVE that JESUS died for YOU on an old rugged cross and is ALIVE today, in Heaven making intercession for YOU before Father God, and then ACCEPT His AWESOME gift of SALVATION!!  He's waiting!!
