Jude 1:25 All glory to him who alone is God, our Saviour through Jesus Christ our Lord. All glory, majesty, power, and authority are his before all time, and in the present, and beyond all time! Amen.
Beyond all time. Some days we're so caught up in the 'now' because it is pressing in on us, that we forget we are headed for the Land Beyond Time.
Do you remember the old film, full of dinosaurs called 'The Land That Time Forgot'? Are we sometimes in danger of being a people who forget, not The Land that Time Forgot, but the 'Land beyond Time'! We're all headed for an existence which is not bound by time any longer, with none of it's constraints. It's hard to even imagine what that will look like isn't it? But the amazing thing is, that is what God has saved us for - to spend an eternity with Him, in His presence where we will see His glory, power and majesty demonstrated before us all the time.
There it is again, this concept of time. I can't even describe it because my mind is so boxed in by the expression of time!
We've all heard it said that God is outside of time, that He sees the Beginning of all things, the Cross of Jesus, and the last folding up of the universe all in one go. God is just so awesome and yet He has come to live in each one of us. He has placed Himself and eternity inside you and me, in our spirit man.
So when you have days when things seem to be going bonkers, when you don't feel on top of the world, when life has dealt you some hard knocks, just stop for a minute and remember you are a person with eternity inside you, and you are on your journey with Jesus to the Land Beyond Time. Hopefully it will give you a new perspective to carry on with a smile because all will be well for the godly. And even though this life is not all there is, He still wants us to enjoy it while we're here and has given us everything we need to be Overcomers and walk out each day in His triumph. Glory to God. It's a win/win situation isn't it?
Thank You Lord. Our eyes are on you, our amazing, wonderful, glorious Saviour, and where you are taking us. Hallelujah!
