Over the past two days, I discussed the relationship between your past and present.
Today, I will conclude the series by discussing about your future and how your present will impact it.
As a believer, your future is secure because only God controls the past, the present, and the future – He is Alpha and Omega. This is why Colossians 1:27 says, “
… Christ in you, the hope of glory:”
Furthermore, Isaiah 3:10 says,
“Say ye to the righteous, that it shall be well with him…” These are promises from God, assuring you that your future will be alright.
Your future can be categorised into two: your future on earth and your future in eternity. If you’re a genuine Christian, you shouldn’t worry about tomorrow because God has promised to take care of you here on earth.
In John 14:13, Jesus said that if you ask anything in His name, it will be given to you. He said in Matthew 7:9-11 that even in our wicked state, we humans would never give our children stones when they ask for bread, so how would we not expect Him to give us every good thing that we ask Him for? As long as you are His child, God has promised that you will lack no good thing here on earth.
God has also promised to take care of you when you leave the earth. In John 14:1-3, Jesus said:
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me. In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
As a genuine child of God, when you leave this world, a mansion in a city made of pure gold is waiting for you in heaven (Revelation 21:18).
Beloved, if you haven’t given your life to Jesus Christ, you are in the kingdom of darkness, and you are courting double jeopardy. On earth, satan will have the right to make a mess of you because you belong to his kingdom, and in eternity, you will be in the lake of fire, far away from God, who is the source of all peace, joy, and light.
If you haven’t given your life to Jesus, turn to Him right now because, outside Him, your future will be terrible (Isaiah 3:11).
KEY POINT: If you are in Christ and you remain in Him, your future is blessed.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Isaiah 50-52
