"...For
our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the
Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ, who will transform our lowly body that
it may be conformed to His glorious body, according to the working by
which He is able even to subdue all things to Himself: (Philippians
3:20-21).
It is the
heart of this Pastor to see that every member of this wonderful local
church move from where they are to the next place in God.
Whether you are just starting on the journey, or you've been running
the race for a while now, I desire to see you go to the next level in
God. I earnestly believe that if we could comprehend our place
in the Kingdom and truly understand our citizenship in the Kingdom of
God our lives will be transformed.
This
perspective goes so far beyond earthly things that many of us have our
minds set on, but it transcends this realm and moves to the heavenly.
That is what Paul was dealing with in Philippians 3:20. We need
to set our minds on the things of the Kingdom of God. Living our
lives not as if this world is our home but living as Kingdom
Citizens.
This is
going to be a great year in the life of Judah Temple. I see God
doing some mighty and powerful things in our lives individually and
collectively. Let's continue to be the loving, caring, family
God has called us to be. I am confident that if we practice
Praising, Praying, Preparing, Proclaiming, and Producing that our
lives will be changed and we will be transformed into the Kingdom
Citizens that God has predetermined we would be.
