WE ARE CANDIDATES OF HIS KINGDOM, LIVING WITH SATAN ON EARTH.

CITIZENS OF HIS KINGDOM:
OUR INDIVIDUAL FAITH IN THE LORD WILL BE CONSTANTLY PUT TO THE TEST, AND OUR INDIVIDUAL WORKS AS A BELIEVER WILL BE PLACED UNDER THE MICROSCOPE TO DETERMINE WHAT SORT OF WORK IT IS,
“THESE HAVE COME SO THAT THE PROVEN GENUINENESS OF YOUR FAITH, OF GREATER WORTH THAN GOLD, WHICH PERISHES EVEN THOUGH REFINED BY FIRE MAY RESULT IN PRAISE, GLORY, AND HONOR WHEN JESUS CHRIST IS REVEALED, THOUGH YOU HAVE NOT SEEN HIM, YOU LOVE HIM, AND EVEN THOUGH YOU DO NOT SEE HIM NOW, YOU BELIEVE IN HIM, FOR YOU ARE RECEIVING THE END RESULT OF YOUR FAITH, THE SALVATION OF YOUR SOULS.” [1 PETER, 1:-7-9]
YOU MAY WANT TO KNOW HOW YOUR FAITH WILL BE TESTED. TESTING OF YOUR FAITH IN CHRIST IS ALL ABOUT TRUSTING IN GOD IN ALL CIRCUMSTANCES AND RELYING ON HIM, RATHER THAN THE PROPHETS AND THE HERBALISTS FOR SOLUTIONS. [PROVERBS, 3:-5-6]
JEREMIAH, 17:-5 “THIS IS WHAT THE LORD SAYS, “CURSE IS THE ONE WHO TRUSTS IN MAN, WHO DRAWS STRENGTH FROM MERE FLESH AND WHOSE HEART TURNS AWAY FROM THE LORD.”
OUR TRUST IN THE LORD MUST BE ROCK-SOLID AT ANY GIVEN POINT, SO WE MAY KEEP SATAN AWAY FROM MEDDLING WITH OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH THE LORD.
IN CONCLUSION: WE ARE CANDIDATES FOR HIS HEAVENLY KINGDOM, BUT WE ARE STILL LIVING ON EARTH WITH SATAN THE PROSECUTOR OF SAINTS.
OUR FAITH IN CHRIST AND OUR TRUST IN GOD IS THE WOMB THAT CARRIES OUR GRACE OF ETERNAL SALVATION IN CHRIST JESUS.
