September 2024: I'm Known in Heaven!

And of Zion [mountain of Jerusalem] it will be said, "This one and that one were born in her; And the Most High Himself shall establish her." The LORD will record, when He registers the peoples: "This one was born there." Selah  (Psalm 87:5-7)

Rise Higher

“The Lord will record” means the Lord writes up those who put their trust in Him! Praise the Lord that we who are saved are counted and registered in heaven!

 

But how can we be sure that our name is recorded in heaven? In John 3:1-3 Nicodemus wondered about this too. Jesus told him a person must be born again which didn’t make sense to Nicodemus. Jesus said you must be born to the earth and born from above! Nicodemus, you are a teacher, and you do not know this?! We are born to the earth which gives us an earthly citizenship. We are born again or from above by accepting Jesus as our risen Lord and Savior. A miracle is when the supernatural invades the natural, so this is the greatest miracle of all!


Sadly, many people go to a church Sunday after Sunday that does not teach the born-again experience. If we are not born again, our name is not registered in heaven. That should be a wake-up call for everyone! We who are born again should want everyone to be born again! Jesus went to the cross for ALL of humanity.

 

For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ . . . (Philippians 3:20)

 

CHANGING OUR ADDRESS

 

What an encouragement to know that we have authority and we have certainty that we have a heavenly home. This life is simply our earthly journey! Temporal…. Our Heavenly home is Eternal, forever with the Lord! Heaven is our home. One day, each of us will die if the rapture does not happen first, and when that time comes, all we do is have a change of address….from Earth to Heaven!

 

The Lord has given us things in this life to use and enjoy. We are to be stewards of them. We shall take nothing with us to our heavenly address, so let’s ask ourselves, are we hoarding what God has given us, or are we sharing with others what the Lord has blessed us with? Are we using them for God’s glory and others’ good? Whoever sows bountifully will also reap bountifully. (2 Corinthians 9:6) Let’s make our aim to help others come to faith in Jesus so that their names are also recorded in heaven.

Do you know about the digital dollar or what to do if our banks close? I get my check from the government and do not know what to do?

Well, this is truly a great question because seems like everywhere we look, something is being said about this 2024 election. You say involved. That is a complicated word with many meanings, and most with negative connotations. If you are referring to being a US citizen and caring about the outcome of the elections, that kind of involvement is good. But how involved should we be?

I want us to rise higher in the understanding of who we are in Christ! No matter what is going on around us or in our own lives, if we keep our focus on Jesus, He will see us through! All around are wars and rumors of wars, floods, tornados, hurricanes, earthquakes, fires, and many other devastating things. I live in northern California where one raging fire has grown to the size of the city of Los Angeles, and sadly, as of now, it is only 14% contained. That is just one fire and there are many burning right now, taking people’s homes and livelihoods. Difficult times for so many.

The issue about fathers comes up a lot this month of June when we are to honor our fathers. Fathers come in all varieties: good, kind, gentle, loving, good provider, helps us through life, wants us to succeed, and helps us to do just that.

This is the first month in a New Year and I am sure we all made some declaration for this New Year which wholes new beginnings if we will allow them to be. Instead of giving up I always add something to my walk with the Lord and when I do that it seems to take care of what I should give up or change.
