EPHESIANS 2:19-22
19. Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens with the saints, and of the Household of God;
20. And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the Chief Cornerstone;
21. In Whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto a holy temple in the Lord:
22. In Whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God through the Spirit. KJV.
The plan of God is so magnificent we cannot begin to grasp His work that He is doing in His people. He wants us to be His family. So, He builds a house or home for us to live in together. But He does not use wood and brick, but He uses His family. Jesus is the main ingredient. Then He fills us with His Holy Spirit and gives us each a spot and a purpose for eternity.
Everything that He does for us is a gift from Him because He loves us and has a bigger plan for us than we think. Just think about how long He has had to wait for His plan to be accomplished. He is taking every step to make it perfect.
EPHESIANS 2:4-7
4. But God, Who is rich in mercy, for His great love wherewith He loved us,
5. Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, by grace ye are saved;
6. And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus;
7. That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. KJV.
These verses are so important for our victory, but they are also showing God’s plan and for the ages to come. He will use man to show His great goodness and mercy. He will show His mercy upon such sinners and undeserving as we, becoming His family and dwelling with Him.
He wants us to be with Him and that means to be seated with Him in the heavenly realm now. He makes it possible for us to rise up and live close to Him. We have to get rid of the flesh and this should be our incentive.
REVELATION 12:12
12. Therefore rejoice, ye heavens, and ye that dwell in them. Woe to the inhabiters of the earth and of the sea! For the devil is come down unto you, having great wrath, because he knoweth that he hath but a short time. KJV.
REVELATION 8:13
13. Then I looked and I saw a solitary eagle flying in midheaven, and as it flew, I heard it crying with a loud voice, Woe, woe, woe to those who dwell on the earth, because of the rest of the trumpet blasts which the three angels are about to sound. Amp.
There are 3 woes in Revelation, they are found in:
- Revelation 9:12
- Revelation 11:14
- Revelation 12:12
We are talking about the third woe in Revelation 12:12. We have safety from this woe if we are seated in the heavenly realm next to Christ as we read in Ephesians 2:5-6. Times will be severely troublesome for those who dwell on the earth spiritually and physically. But we will escape the trouble and the devil by following the Lamb and being filled by His Spirit.
PSALM 91:9-10
9. Because you have made the Lord your refuge, and the Most High your dwelling place,
10. There shall no evil befall you, nor any plague or calamity come near your tent. Amp.
🎶SONGS – PSALM 91 – PHIL DRISCOLL
Amen.
God will show mercy to undeserving sinners.
He is not like us, He is full of mercy and He sees the whole picture into eternity
