CHRIST DETERMINES THE LIFESPAN OF HIS OWN

Being dead to the flesh and alive in the Spirit, as an adopted Child of God, consecrated to live for Christ on Earth and stay deserving of eternity in Heaven, "your life is hidden with Christ in God," for only He can determine your lifespan as the Creator and Source of Life (John 1:1-4, Col. 3:3, 1 Sam. 2:6). So, as Followers of Christ, we should stay committed to live for Him until our last breath, knowing that whoever sleeps in the LORD after living to the fulfillment of one's calling in Christ, done with all their strength and might, bearing fruit that remains, will surely gain Everlasting Life with Jesus, reunited with all Believers, in Heaven (Phil. 1:21-22).
Moreover, "it's appointed for a man to die once, and after that comes judgment;" yet, only Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, "holds the keys of death and the Grave," for He alone can determine the lifespan of His own, anointed and preserved for His glory, untouchable by the kingdom of darkness, as the Beloved of the LORD (Ps. 105:15, Heb. 9:27, Rev. 1:18).

PRAYER: In Jesus' Name, thank You, Omniscient Heavenly Father, for keeping me preserved and sustained by faith through the Holy Spirit, waiting for the second coming of Your only begotten Son, Jesus Christ, in whom I am alive and ready to serve as a vessel of glory in Your Hands til my last breath on Earth. Please keep me fruitful as I continuously testify of Your Love, Peace, and Power for the Salvation of souls, revived to live in Your advancing Kingdom,
Amen.
