CITIZENS OF HEAVEN
You are citizens of heaven, journeying on foreign territory where dangers, potholes and strangers are going to try to lure you away from my design and purpose for your life. Free yourselves of worldly desires and follow the best things of life, which you can only find in my Son, Christ Jesus. Don’t allow rocks and stumbling stones to cause you to lose your way in a world that you don’t belong to.
My children need direction and a proven road to walk on which will lead them away from a corrupt nature and culture, to the summit of life and joy. This is the highway of holiness. It is a place where whatever interferes with love will eventually fall off. When travelers begin to walk this road they are usually foolish and struggle with moral and spiritual impurities. But once the choice is made to follow this path, the traveler will be in a continual state of transformation. There won’t be any fear of getting lost because my Presence is on this highway. Compromise doesn’t exist on the highway of holiness so even when you do foolish things, by the time you get to the end, you will have been changed and delivered. Fear not; my holiness is much stronger than your weakness.
We’ve made a way for you to return home and live with us forever but you need to actively receive it. Exchanging your sin for Jesus’ righteousness is the ticket, which permits all humanity entrance to this highway of life. Once made holy by his shed blood, travelers will be partakers of my safety, protection and security while on route. And when others hurt or forsake you during your lifetime, you will have my Son and my promises to hold you up. All who travel the highway of holiness are guaranteed to arrive at the final destination as they follow the path closely.
Children, while you are on this journey together, I want you to rejoice and celebrate that you have dedicated your heart and life to me. Support and strengthen one another in order that the holiness inside of you will give expression to what is seen on the outside. Celebrate the person of Jesus while on this path because he IS the path and he is your constant companion. He is the light IN the tunnel, not just at the end of it. He is the way OUT of confusion and the areas of abandonment and neglect in your life. Worship and praise him; sing songs of rejoicing because there will be trophies and rewards waiting for you at the end of your journey. You are heading home, where your true citizenship lies, to an eternity where sorrow and sighing are no more.
SCRIPTURE VERSES
And a highway shall be there, and it shall be called the Way of Holiness; the unclean shall not pass over it. It shall belong to those who walk on the way; even if they are fools, they shall not go astray. (Isaiah 35:8) ESV
By contrast, we have already come near to God in a totally different realm, the Zion-realm, (God’s heavenly realm) for we have entered the city of the Living God, which is the New Jerusalem in heaven! We have joined the festal gathering of myriads of angels in their joyous celebration! And as members of the church of the Firstborn all our names have been legally registered as CITIZENS of heaven! And we have come before God who judges all, and who lives among the spirits of the righteous who have been made perfect in his eyes! And we have come to Jesus who established a new covenant with his blood sprinkled upon the mercy seat; blood that continues to speak from heaven, “forgiveness,” a better message than Abel’s blood that cries from the earth, “justice.”
(Heb.12:22-24)TPT
He will wipe away every tear from their eyes and eliminate death entirely. No one will mourn or weep any longer. The pain of wounds will no longer exist, for the old order has ceased. (Rev.21:4) TPT
