…for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life…” John 3:16 (NKJV)

If you ask most people today where they will be after they depart from this world, I guarantee you that seventy percent will tell you they are not sure. Interestingly, this includes Christians. Despite accepting Jesus, some Christians are unsure of their eternal destination, fearing mistakes might prevent them from entering heaven. However, if you’re reading this and feel unsure about your future, I have good news: you will most certainly be with Jesus.

He died in your place, paying the penalty for your sins so you could spend eternity with Him. Your responsibility now is to live each day consciously aware of this truth and resist the devil’s attempts to deceive you. Jesus is your ark of safety, just like Noah’s ark. Once you’re in Christ, you’re secure, unless you choose to reject Him.

I urge you to trust in Jesus not only as your Lord and Savior but also as your ultimate protector. He is your life insurance for this world, and the one to come. Align yourself with His words and do His will. By following His guidance, you find safety. Acting independently based on personal opinions and desires leads to death, while following His will leads to life. 

As Jesus said, “Therefore everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into practice is like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on the rock. But everyone who hears these words of mine and does not put them into practice is like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell and the floods came and the winds blew and beat on that house, and it fell, and great was the fall of that house.” (Matthew 7:24-27).   

Stake your life on Jesus and His principles. He is not only the Lord of your life but your fortress of safety. Praise God!

Today’s Rhema

Have faith in Jesus not just as your Lord and savior but as your ark of safety and security!

Confession for the Day 

Glorious God, I thank you for securing my life in Christ Jesus. I thank you for insuring my life in this world and in the world to come. By the power of your Spirit, I will continue to live conscious of this truth now and all the days of my life in Jesus name. Amen!
