“The Kingdom Of Heaven Is Not Just A Future Hope”
Jesus told a story about ten young ladies who were invited to a wedding (Matthew 25:1–13). Five of them focused only on the future wedding, forgetting to bring enough oil for the time they had to wait; but the other five focused on the ‘now’ as well as the ‘future’, bringing enough oil for both.
There’s a kind of Christian who is always miserable and gloomy, hoping for God to bring better times. Some of these Christians try to trace every detail of Bible prophecy, to work out exactly how the end will come. But the Bridegroom will surprise us all.
Jesus has promised us that things will be better in the future. But if that’s all we have, and we are just waiting in misery for that day, then we are like the five girls without oil.
The Kingdom of Heaven is not only a future hope; it is also a present reality. Only those who live profitably and joyfully in Christ’s Kingdom now will ever come to see the Kingdom of Glory.
What is your perspective as a Christian? Are you enjoying Christ’s Kingdom blessings now, or are you gritting your teeth and holding on for something beyond the grave? List some things that are holding you back from enjoying Christ’s Kingdom blessings today. Find a Bible promise that will help you make it a reality in your life.
