April 27, 2019 Anglican Daily Fountain Devotional : TOPIC - Living with Eternity in Mind

- , , ,
--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

TOPIC - Living with Eternity in Mind
READ: 1 Corinthians 15:29-34 New King James Version (NKJV)
29 Otherwise, what will they do who are baptized for the dead, if the dead do not rise at all? Why then are they baptized for the dead?

30 And why do we stand in jeopardy every hour?
31 I affirm, by the boasting in you which I have in Christ Jesus our Lord, I die daily.
32 If, in the manner of men, I have fought with beasts at Ephesus, what advantage is it to me? If the dead do not rise, “Let us eat and drink, for tomorrow we die!”
33 Do not be deceived: “Evil company corrupts good habits.”
34. Awake to righteousness, and do not sin; for some do not have the knowledge of God. I speak this to your shame.
THE MESSAGE:
Further on the subject of the resurrection of the dead, God’s word has set out for us some of the things that eternity-minded people do. They die daily (verse 31): This is re-iterating what Jesus Himself had earlier said: …if anyone would come after me, he must deny himself and take up his cross daily and follow me (Luke 9:23).
The truth is, those who will go to heaven will not end up in heaven by mistake. In the same way, those who will go to hell will not end up in hell by mistake. Each one of us, by our conscious daily choices, is deciding where he will spend eternity whether in heaven or in hell.
Furthermore, eternity-minded people endure through the struggles of life, and they are prepared to fight the good fight of faith. Paul, because he was certain of eternity with Christ, endured persecutions and even fought with beasts at Ephesus (verse 32). Eternity-minded people are not afraid to be persecuted. They hold on to the faith against all odds. They strive to please God.
In addition, eternity-minded people carefully select their friends, partners and companions, knowing that bad company ruins good morals (verse 33). Finally from this passage, eternity-minded people do not “go on sinning” (verse 34). They know that sin is enmity with God.
PRAYER: Lord, help me to live always with eternity in mind. Help me overcome every sinful habit.
