HOW TO LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH ETERNITY IN MIND

 

TIMES OF REFRESHING

 

ONLINE DAILY DEVOTIONAL by Obiorah Prince Emeka

DATE: FRIDAY 15 JANUARY 2021

 

The recent past, we examined how disastrous and depressing it would be to have gone through your whole life and at the end of it, look back, and realize that you spent all your time, money and energy on things that were pointless and had no value or worth. Now, we shall be looking at how to live your life with eternity in mind.

 

SCRIPTURE:

Store your treasures in heaven, where moths and rust cannot destroy, and thieves do not break in and steal, (Matthew 6:20) NLT

 

REFRESHING FOR THE DAY:

Life without eternity in view is mortality.

 

Our anchor scripture encourages us, as we plan and work in life, let us also store up treasures in heaven, that’s eternity. The brevity of life and our existence shows that we must at any point in time live with eternity in view.

 

So, how then can you live your life with eternity in mind?

i.             Surrender your life to Jesus, (2 Cor. 5:17, John 3:3, 7-8).

ii.            Live daily with the consciousness of God’s presence in your life, (Psm 17:5, 1 Sam 2:30).

iii.          Live to please God with your life, (Matt. 3:17).

iv.          Live a sin-free life, (John 8:11, Acts 2:38).

v.            Live to glorify God with your life, (1 John 4:19, Psm 115:1).

vi.          Live to represent God in your life and generations, (Mark 8:38, Gal. 6:17).

vii.         Live in love and peace with all men, (Rom. 14:19, 1 John 4:20).

Stay Refreshed!

 

NOTE THIS:

Life without eternity in view is mortality.

 

RESPONSIBILITY:

In all you do, consciously desire not to miss eternity.

 

PRAYER:

O LORD, keep hold of me not to lose eternity, in the name of Jesus’ Amen! (Go ahead and continue to pray)

 

PROPHETIC WORD:

Every agenda to sway you from eternity, is arrested NOW, in the name of Jesus, Amen.

 

BIBLE TEXTS: Matt. 6:20, 2 Cor. 5:17, 1 John 4:19, Matt 3:17
