You Are Blessed Of God
We have been saved through faith by the grace of God and have been
seated in Christ in the heavenly places. This is in our spirits of
course. Don't look for your body to be in heaven at this stage.
In the coming ages you'll see your spiritual body there but you
haven't got it yet!
Ephesians 2:4 But God, being rich in mercy,
because of the great love with which he loved us, 5 even
when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with
Christ—by grace you have been saved— 6 and raised us up with
him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus,
7 so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable
riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.
But in this age we will be blessed also, one hundred fold, for
whatever we give up or give in love.
Mark 10:29esus said, “I tell all of you
with certainty, there is no one who has left his home, brothers,
sisters, mother, father, children, or fields because of me and
the gospel 30 who will not receive a hundred times as much
here in this world—homes, brothers, sisters, mothers, children,
and fields, along with persecution—as well as eternal life in the
age to come.
That's what God will give to us by His grace and we don't have to
worry about that or count what we give to check against God's bounty.
We cannot out-give God!
Putting faith in God to do all that He promised is what our lives
should consist of; it takes courage but it's also fun as He makes
your desires His desires and gives you the desires of your heart.
Best wishes for Grace and the Peace of Jesus.
Attlee.
