Even a
casual peek through the biblical window into the Heavenly City reveals a
miraculous place. Things considered so precious here on earth will be no more
than pavement and building material in the New Jerusalem. Resplendent with the
Light of Our Savior, a Sea of Glass, a heavenly host beyond number; is it any
wonder that God sends miracles into this world to proclaim the nature of the
world to come. Lord God of Beauty and Power beyond description, I welcome Your
marvels and mighty works in this world that announce a miraculous eternity in
the next. Come quickly Lord.
A serious pursuit of godliness requires an equally serious renunciation of worldliness. Too often, we measure spirituality with false scales. While being wisely selective with our public vices we are less so with our private attitudes and perspectives. In reality, it is the thoughts and intents of the heart where the greatest battles must be waged; our actions will ultimately align with the condition of our hearts. Lord God, You know me inside out, You are not fooled by human facades. Plow my heart with Your Word and Spirit and leave nothing unturned. Refresh my inward man that I may outwardly glorify You in all places at all times.
