Kingdom Vision - The Big Picture

As a Mom, one of the first things God taught me is that if I painted a mental picture of the future, prayed incessantly, and then kept reminding everyone where we were heading, by the grace of God, in spite of ourselves, somehow we'd get there.

Here is my vision of the future. Revelation 3:7-13; The loving family

Enjoying face to face fellowship with our redeeming King,
hearts wide open,
spirit filled,
humbly loving God our Father and doing what He says,
reflecting Christ-like character; love,
glorifying His Name in the power of the Holy Spirit; 3:7-8

Living courageously,
loving others, even our enemies,
waiting for God to judge, reward and repay,
knowing the truth always comes out in the long run; 3:9

Faithfully persevering through trials,
walking in truth,
experiencing God's protection both now and forever; 3:10

Ready for Christ's return,
Holding on tightly to the truth,
living victoriously,
trusting the promises of God; 3:11

Serving as pillars in the community,
living on earth as citizens of the Kingdom of God,
enjoying special intimacy with the King,
reigning in greatness as His servant leaders; 3:12

May we be receptive to what God is saying, 3:13
Amen

"You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16

God be glorified in my life, my family and Your church. Amen!
