Only Phase One

[T]hey sung a new song, saying, Thou … hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth. — Revelation 5:9-10

Too often we act as if this present world and time are the only ones God has in mind for us.

Not So! We won’t be sitting in heaven somewhere eating bon-bons and playing harps when all this is over, we’ll have work to do! Stop thinking we are all headed to some non-physical existence and begin to notice the scriptures about a tangible future that God is moving us toward.

Sound Bite: We are only in phase one!
Prayer: “Jesus, help me to get and stay on board with your training program; learning all I can, growing all I can, knowing you have a greater purpose for me than right here and now. Amen.”

A Scripture for Bikers

Honda CH250

It is always good to memorize scripture, and here is a good one:

Now unto him that is able to keep you from falling, and to present you faultless before the presence of his glory with exceeding joy, To the only wise God our Saviour, be glory and majesty, dominion and power, both now and ever. Amen. — Jude 1:24-25

The Cross by Numbers

[God] said, “Number the congregation of the People of Israel by clans and families … The tribe of Reuben numbered 46,500 … Simeon 59,300 … Gad 45,650 … Judah 74,600 … Issachar 54,400 … Zebulun 57,400 … Ephraim 40,500 …. Manasseh 32,200 … Benjamin 35,400 …Dan 62,700 … Asher 41,500 … Naphtali 53,400.

[Then God] said, “The People of Israel are to set up camp circling the Tent of Meeting and facing it. Each company is to camp under its distinctive tribal flag. To the east toward the sunrise are the companies of the camp of Judah, Issachar next to them, Zebulun next to them. South are the companies of the camp of Reuben, Simeon, Gad. To the west Ephraim, Manasseh, Benjamin. To the north Dan, Asher, and Naphtali” — Numbers 1:1 – 2:34

Someone pointed out that from above, with all the people numbered and camped around God’s tent as directed, it all formed a giant cross pointing East.

Do the math and see for yourself!

The cross has always been God’s plan for humanity’s redemption!

“Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot … was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you” – 1st Peter 1:18b-20
