Jesus said that “we’re not of this world.”
So live from where you are from. If you’re born again you are born from above.
You are not traveling there. You were born from there.
Dear Church of Jesus Christ, just because you’re still on earth doesn’t mean that your authority is from earth or that you have none.
A king or queen doesn’t lose authority because they’re not physically sitting on the throne. Power is not in that chair.
Live from within.
That City is not heaven. But heaven is in that City. Some of the inhabitants of that City are already in heaven. Others (citizens of that same City) are still on earth.
One day we’ll shall all meet in one location called heaven, which is in the City Sion.
We’re in that City.
Prophets and godly people of old desired to see the day of the church. They all died before receiving what they hoped for (a City which builder is God.)
God intend that they don’t obtain It without us (the Church.)
We have come to this City. The church is NOT marching there.
The church of the Lord Jesus Christ operates from a higher realm, from that City that the heroes of faith were looking for. From a place of dominion.
Read your Bible and understand this reality.
We walk by faith and not by sensory perceptions.
While we appreciate the use of natural reasoning, our decisions as christians are based on spiritual cogitations.
If you want the Word of God to have effect in your life:
1) don’t be carried away by the cares of the world’s problems or your own.
2) when you prosper, don’t be deceived by riches. Don’t depend on earthly wealth.
3) don’t covet what you don’t have.
Mark 4: 19-20
For whatever is born of God, subdues the world’s negative forces; and this is the victorious principle that subdues the world’s negative forces, even our FAITH.
1 John 5:4
Satan can destroy your physical and mental life if you chose to live in constant fear and worry. It doesn’t matter how long or good you’ve been serving God and people. Faithfulness is not necessarily FAITH.
You must live by FAITH and not fear.
Romans 1:17
“…Christ your life…” ~Colossians 3:4
If only christians knew that the Life inside of them is capable of bringing physical and mental well being. That Life is capable of restoring the very cells of your body to great health and bring peace to your mind.
Even in the face of death or the imminent destruction of the current world systems, we just “look up for our salvation is near.”
We pray, we intercede for the lost. But never from a position of defeat, despair or weakness.
Glory be to the Lord Jesus Christ forever. Amen!
The church of Jesus Christ is not a wimpy, cowardly and whinny organization. Check our history… we even “rejoice in afflictions” (Romans 5:3), and keep living the Great Life found in Jesus the Christ.

You come to a point in your walk where your faith and love are deeply rooted in Jesus the Christ, where you become strengthened by the Power of His might.
No adversity, not even death can shake you. Then your daily confession becomes: “None of these things move me.” Acts 20:24
God, the Creator of the universe, made a sovereign decree that “at the Name of Jesus every knee must bow.” ~Philippians 2:10
And then He gave us (those who believe in the Lordship of Jesus Christ) the legal right to use and operate in His name. ~ John 14:13
You shouldn’t live in constant fear & worry as a christian. Adopting a persistent negative worldview is not proof of wisdom or “realism.”
Jesus said: “CHEER UP, I have overcome the world.” John 16:33
The journey ends with Christ & his church as victors. So why worry?
For God was in Christ, reconciling us to himself, no longer counting our sins against us. ~ 2 Corinthians 5:19
Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will toward people. ~ Luke 2:14
There’s no need to remain enemies with our Heavenly Father.
