Topic: A TOUCH OF HEAVEN
Text: Read: Hebrews 11:13-16
Daily Bible Study: Gen. 43-44; Ps. 11

“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ” (Phil. 3:20).

Abraham realized God had a greater plan for his life; so he shifted his focus from the world around him to the world that was yet to come.
The same should be true of us. The trials we face in this earthly life cannot compare to the glory that one day will be ours. But we can also have a taste of heaven here on earth by surrendering our lives totally to God and enjoying His love and peace. Once we accept Jesus Christ as our Saviour, we are adopted into the family of God. Our names are not only written in the Lamb's Book of Life, they also are recorded in the eternal records of God's Kingdom.
With our citizenship not tied to this present physical world alone, we can live with a sense of eternal hope for the future. Those who honour God by living in obedience and submission to His will; who live as “strangers and pilgrims” on this earth (1 Pet. 2:11) and who desire and pursue a better country will be honoured by God. He will not be ashamed to acknowledge them as His very own children, for He has prepared a city for them. God has prepared the same city for you. Because Jesus Christ has saved you from your sins, you can enjoy a touch of heaven on earth as you worship and live your life for Him each day.

Prayer: Dear Lord, thank You for the gift of salvation unto us. Teach us to know more about You and enable us to serve You with all our heart and live in Your grace daily, we pray in Jesus’ name – Amen.

THE VOICE OF CHRIST (DAILY SPIRITUAL LESSONS) Date: SUNDAY JANUARY 13, 2019 Topic: BE ATTENTIVE IN GOD'S PRESENCE Text: Read:  Acts 20:7-12 Daily Bible Study:  Genesis 30-31; Psalm 13. And there sat in a window, a certain young man named Eutychus, being fallen into a deep sleep and fell down and was taken up dead (Acts 20:9). When a true preacher of God's word visits a town, his sermon is always spectacular – the message, the attendance and the powerful prayers he offers all sum up into an impartation service. Apostle Paul had such an impartation service with the brethren in Troas. The service lasted overnight with brother Eutychus in attendance, who couldn't resist sleep and fell off from the third floor of the building where the service was held. One would expect only those who were serious minded to attend such a meeting, though they didn’t know Apostle Paul would preach that long – past midnight. People often laugh at Eutychus for sleeping off, but what of t...

POLITICS (PLEASE POST YOUR OPINION) Donald Trump will tonight hand out his inaugural ‘fake news awards’ to the media outlets that have most angered him during his first year as President. The Commander in Chief announced the bizarre ceremony in a tweet late Tuesday, writing: ‘I will be announcing THE MOST DISHONEST & CORRUPT MEDIA AWARDS OF THE YEAR on Monday at 5:00 o’clock. ‘Subjects will cover Dishonesty & Bad Reporting in various categories from the Fake News Media. Stay tuned!’ President Trump has been most vociferous in attacking CNN for its supposed ‘fake news’, with the network widely expected to win the majority of gongs. The awards are likely to be ‘handed out’ in a series of scathing tweets from Mr Trump, and it is unclear whether he will present winners with any sort of booby prize. He popularized the term fake news during his White House run, using it to attack reports whose facts he disputes. But Trump’s critics claim it is an easy way of shouting down va...
