Is Your Room Confirmed?

Saturday February 24, 2018

Homelessness is often an issue we face while in addiction.  The good news is that when we enter into a new life with God in recovery we are assured of a home with Him forever.



Jesus said:  Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust also in me. There is more than enough room in my Father’s home.  If this were not so, would I have told you that I am going to prepare a place for you?  When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am.  (John 14:1-3 NLT)


Jesus, who created this world and everything in it, including us, came to earth to die for our sins.  When this work was finished, Jesus returned to heaven to make ready a place for those who believed in Him.  When we look at the spectacular beauty of this created earth we can hardly imagine what that place will be like.  Thankfully, we don’t have to wait for heaven to find a peaceful sanctuary, God promises one with Him today. 



Jesus said, All who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come and make our home with each of them. Anyone who doesn’t love me will not obey me. And remember, my words are not my own. What I am telling you is from the Father who sent me.  (John 14:23-24 NLT)

When we accept the unfailing love of God for us and turn our will and our lives over to His care, Jesus says that He and His Father will come and make their home with us.  Our hearts and lives will be filled up with all the fullness of God.  The Holy Spirit will walk with us and teach us everything we need to know.

But when the Father sends the Advocate as my representative—that is, the Holy Spirit—he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I have told you.  (John 14:26 NLT)

Today, let’s give thanks that we are the temple of the Holy Spirit and are never alone because God lives with us, and is in us. 

Prayer:  Loving God, Thank You that in this life, wherever I am, You are my safe shelter.  I look forward to the place in heaven that Jesus is preparing for me and can only imagine how much better it will be than anything I could ever envision. Amen
