Philippians chapter 3 verse 20

reminds us our citizenship is in heaven

and from it we await a Savior the Lord Jesus Christ

who will transform our lowly body to be like His glorious body by the power that enables him even to subject all

things to himself. What a great reminder today.

We may be citizens of a country here, but our real citizenship is in heaven.

Our names are written in heaven. Obviously this is referring to those who are in

Christ who have put their faith in Christ. Our citizenship is in heaven. That's where

our home is. That's where our home will be for all of eternity and so we're just

passing through this land on the way to that land. That's what we're looking forward to.

We're migrants here in that sense.

Even with citizenship in this or that country,

we are temporarily here. eternal home is there and we are

awaiting from there a Savior the Lord Jesus Christ who's coming back for us.

What a glorious reality.

Jesus is coming back for us and he could do this today.

The cry of revelation is, come, Lord Jesus, come quickly.

I was praying this this morning as I'm reading this passage

waiting for a Savior Jesus Christ to come back to bring an end to sin and

suffering and evil and injustice and death in the world. He's coming back to put an end to all of it, to wipe every tear

from our eyes to bring to culmination a day when there's no more sin, no more sorrow, no more suffering, no more death.
