“I will be glad and rejoice in your unfailing love, for you have seen my troubles, and you care about the anguish of my soul.” Psalm 31:7 (NLT) God sees our troubles and he cares about our distress, even if we don’t feel it. When we dwell in the place of trust in God’s care for us then our soul dwells in the kingdom of God. We are not controlled by our circumstances and we are not misled by the visible world. We have victory because by faith we dwell in the invisible world of God’s love. So we rejoice, not because we are in denial or escape to a fictitious realm, rather we rejoice because we are learning to travel the roads of the deeper reality of God’s realm.

“…in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God. And the peace of God, which surpasses all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.” Phil. 4:6-7 (ESV). This is a great encouragement because it teaches us a practice that will bring us to freedom from anxiety and inner turmoil. If we make our requests to God, and trust him then we will find peace for our souls. Our hearts and minds will find protection from the circumstances of life that steal our peace. And we can not even understand the peace for it is supernatural and so by faith we live in the Kingdom of God which transcends earthly knowledge and we learn to dwell in supernatural harmony in Christ.

“Our citizenship is in heaven” Phil. 3:20 (NIV) In Philippians chapter 3 Paul is making the point that our hearts should not be set on earthly things, but rather we should be humble like Jesus and embrace the way of the Cross. We should not prioritize worldly benefits. This is because we are actually citizens of another land: heaven. Our supreme citizenship is not planet earth, but rather that place where God and his goodness completely permeate all things. How much better to be citizens of heaven than of earth! Heaven is our home and we have the privileges and blessings of being citizens of heaven. That is why we can follow the way of the Cross now – it is all worth it because we are already citizens of the best place in existence.

Even when our circumstances are bad God is working in us. But the best news is that when Jesus returns and we see him then God will finish his work in us. (I John 3:2 expresses the same idea.) In other words, he will make us fully Christlike. We will finally be what Continue Reading →
