All things are in God’s hands, because this is God’s world. When we are on God’s side and we prayerfully depend on Him, we find ourselves in the most blessed place in life.
The future is the reign of God in heaven becoming a reality on earth. Christ overcomes the world with judgments and He will reign on the earth with His people.
Our unity in character is God’s instrument of choice to reach the lost and make disciples of all the nations. May we be sanctified, useful to the Master, prepared for every good work.
Jesus prays for our sanctification, because we have a mission on earth, and in order for us to be useful toward that mission, we must be set apart from this world and be holy like Him.
