1Pet2:11 Dear friends, I warn you as “temporary residents and foreigners” to keep away from worldly desires that wage war against your very souls. NLT
In some countries in the world, to be a resident of those countries, you need a resident permit or else, you may not be allowed to stay there. If you force your way in, you are deemed to be an illegal resident.
In this world, our resident permit is temporal and we cannot stay here forever. We have a home in heaven above where moths and insects cannot destroy. At the end of our Christian, we won't leave home,but we shall go home to meet our master.
Desire is not enough but we need to make conscious effort to be there. The devil is working extra hard so that we'll miss it. We need to rely on his grace alone and live circumspectly as the day draw nearer. Let's live with eternity in view, that's how our lives can have meaning here on this earth that is passing away.
Father, by your grace let me enter your kingdom In Jesus name. Amen
