Eternal eyes

“Then the King will turn to those on his right and say, ‘You have a special place in my Father’s heart. Come and experience the full inheritance of the kingdom realm that has been destined for you from before the foundation of the world!”Matthew‬ ‭25‬:‭34‬ ‭TPT‬‬

We admire those who finish well. The Lord has a special place for those who finish the race well, a full inheritance of the kingdom. What does that look like? He said, “I must go away and prepare a place for you” (Jn 14:3). Revelation tells us what that place is like. 

“It was infused with the glory of God, and its radiance was like that of a very rare jewel, like a jasper, clear as crystal. The city was pure gold, clear as crystal, and its wall was made of jasper. The twelve foundations of the wall were adorned with every kind of precious stone—the first was jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh turquoise, and the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates are twelve pearls—each gate made of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, clear as crystal.”Revelation‬ ‭21‬:‭11‬, ‭18‬-‭21‬ ‭TPT‬‬

At this present time my home country is being smashed with some of the worst weather many have known. People are losing houses, businesses and farms. The damage to motor vehicles is enormous, but how does that compare with what awaits us. 

Jesus said: ““How could you worship two gods at the same time? You will have to hate one and love the other, or be devoted to one and despise the other. You can’t worship the true God while enslaved to the god of money!”Matthew‬ ‭6‬:‭24‬ ‭TPT‬‬

When we are attached to earthly pleasures we place our delight there. Our God is a jealous God, He wants first place and for those who give Him first place the reward is great. Jesus talked about two builders. One built on rock and the other on sand. He is the rock the world is the sand. We must choose wisely as one gets washed away.

Have eternal eyes! Amen!
