Are You Living After Time? YES!
by Tonja Taylor Heaven and earth shall pass away: but my words shall not pass away. - Luke 21:33, AMP The LORD gave me this phrase yesterday: "Are you living after time?" Time was created for humans, but the LORD is outside of time. In Heaven, there is no time, and you can have Heaven on earth right now! Here's the deal: In this world, in this human life, we live in time. Time is supposed to be our servant (and so is money!), but often, we have let time dictate our lives. Overall, mastering time requires realizing what is most important, and making the best use of our time, according to what pleases the LORD. We are on the planet for a purpose, and, that purpose is first to become born again to know our LORD as Father God, and enjoy Him, and then to help as many others as possible to know Him and love Him, receive Him, and go to Heaven with us! When all has been heard, the end of the matter is: fear God [worship Him with awe-filled reverence, knowing that He is almighty God] and keep His commandments, for this applies to every person. For God will bring every act to judgment, every hidden and secret thing, whether it is good or evil. - Ecclesiastes 12:13-14, AMP So, the LORD helps us to measure our activities, desires, plans, possessions, etc., against the highest purpose of bringing Him glory as we enjoy our wonderful position as His beloved children! Hallelujah! You will never go wrong with Jesus Christ (the Anointed One and His anointing; the Messiah, the only Savior of the world!)! He is so very loving and kind, tender and patient, merciful, gracious, generous, faithful, and true! His love for us is so perfect, that He chose to die the most horrible death on the cross, over 2,000 years ago, to shed every drop of His pure blood--to pay the sin debt that you and I could never pay, so we could escape eternal judgment in hell, and instead live with Him and Father God (Elohim, the Creator and Sustainer of the universe and all life and good things) forever in Heavenly bliss; also, so we could have a wonderful, most personal and divine relationship with Him now on earth! While we were still helpless [powerless to provide for our salvation], at the right time Christ died [as a substitute] for the ungodly. Now it is an extraordinary thing for one to willingly give his life even for an upright man, though perhaps for a good man [one who is noble and selfless and worthy] someone might even dare to die. But God clearly shows and proves His own love for us, by the fact that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. - Romans 5:6-8, AMP Every human is born into sin, by default, because the first humans committed treason against God, and sold out to the enemy (satan, the deceiver, the devil, who is the reason for everything bad in the earth). For no person will be justified [freed of guilt and declared righteous] in His sight by [trying to do] the works of the Law. For through the Law we become conscious of sin [and the recognition of sin directs us toward repentance, but provides no remedy for sin]. But now the righteousness of God has been clearly revealed [independently and completely] apart from the Law, though it is (actually) iconfirmed by the Law and the [words and writings of the] Prophets. This righteousness of God comes through faith in Jesus Christ for all those [Jew or Gentile] who believe [and trust in Him and acknowledge Him as God’s Son]. There is no distinction,since all have sinned and continually fall short of the glory of God, - Romans 3:20-23, AMP
But Jesus, God's Son, chose to come to earth, be born of a virgin, live a pure sinless life on earth as a human man, then die for us, so we could be forgiven and cleansed, and live with and for the King of Kings forever! Hallelujah! For “WHOEVER CALLS ON THE NAME OF THE LORD [in prayer] WILL BE SAVED.” - Romans 10:13, AMP So, if you want to be truly "living after time"--in the Presence of the LORD, in Heaven, with Father God and Jesus the Son forever--you can say this prayer out loud, right now, and complete this eternal transaction forever! You will be rescued from the terrible, temporary, putrid, defeated kingdom of darkness, and translated into the glorious, victorious, eternal Kingdom of Light, of the LORD Jesus Christ, the soon-returning King! Hallelujah! But you are A CHOSEN RACE, A royal PRIESTHOOD, A CONSECRATED NATION, A [special] PEOPLE FOR God’s OWN POSSESSION, so that you may proclaim the excellencies [the wonderful deeds and virtues and perfections] of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. – I Peter 2:9, AMP Say this short but powerful prayer out loud (God is a Spirit, but He is all-powerful, all-knowing, and everywhere at once, in this, His universe!): Dear Jesus, I choose to believe that You are God, and You died on the cross and shed Your pure blood to pay for my sins. I ask You to please forgive me of all my wrongs, and cleanse me with Your blood. I choose to receive You as my Savior and LORD. I renounce any other god in my life, and choose to follow You. Help me to love You and live for You, and to help others know that You are the only Way to Heaven. I receive You and thank for Your great mercy to me! In Your Name, amen! Now, you've made the best decision of your life!! You now have Jesus with you, to help you be wise and live the best life you could ever have. He will help you know what to do and not do. Many things will change, but He is loving, understanding, patient, and kind. He is your Best Friend Forever, and will fight for you! For the Lord GOD helps Me, Therefore, I have not been ashamed or humiliated. Therefore, I have made My face like flint, And I know that I shall not be put to shame. - Isaiah 50:7, AMP HALLELUJAH! With Jesus the LORD of all, WE WIN!
