Philippians 1:9 And this I pray, THAT your love may abound yet more and more in knowledge and in all judgment; 10 THAT ye may approve things that are excellent; that ye may be sincere and without offence till (with a view toward being ready for) the Day of Christ. 11 Being filled with the fruits of righteousness, which are by Jesus Christ, unto the glory and praise of God.
Day 19—The powers of God’s eternal Kingdom are at work in us while we are still in this age.

 

As we have prayed about our being made ready for the Day of Christ, we are being brought into alignment with God’s Kingdom. Thus, our lives are brought into order with Christ’s Kingdom on earth. The authority and the power of that Kingdom will move for our protection and provision as the furious time of the end moves in upon us. And here is a marvelous thing: What He performs in us in this age, making us into sons and daughters in His Kingdom, will move with us into the age to come. This means, while still living in this age, we are becoming acquainted with eternity.

Even if we go by way of death, whatever is brought about in us by the Spirit of God while we’re in this present age will remain with us in the age to come. In fact, it is in this time that we are being prepared for eternity.

DEAR FATHER, please do all that is necessary in us while we’re still in this age to make us ready for the age to come. And work in us, not only that we might be prepared for the coming age, but that we might walk in the Light as children of the Light, even when the darkness covers the earth while this age is ending.

Kings will come to the brightness of your new day.–Isaiah 60:1-3
