An Inheritance Incorruptible.

An Inheritance Incorruptible and Undefiled - Reserved For Us.

1Pe 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, 

1Pe 1:4  To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you, 

1Pe 1:5  Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time. 

Praise God. We are KEPT by the power of God.  We need to believe. Salvation will be revealed in the last time.

The last time.

There will be a last time. Make no mistake, this isn't something to fear, this is something to celebrate, to anticipate with joy. The last days for this temporary existence are going to be horrible, and yet wondrous.

The pain of childbirth is horrific for most who go through it without painkilling medications of any kind. Not that all women experience childbirth the same, but  most will tell you that the pain is unbelievable. The pain is horrible and yet the reward for that pain is new life!  The pain at the end of the world, the last days, is going to be something unlike anything we've ever experienced before. The fear from the pain is going to kill many people, the fear will kill - this is how horrible it will become.  Yet we can have hope. The hope of our LORD, the hope of SALVATION.

1Pe 1:6  Wherein ye greatly rejoice, though now for a season, if need be, ye are in heaviness through manifold temptations: 

1Pe 1:7  That the trial of your faith, being much more precious than of gold that perisheth, though it be tried with fire, might be found unto praise and honour and glory at the appearing of Jesus Christ: 

1Pe 1:8  Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see him not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: 

1Pe 1:9  Receiving the end of your faith, even the salvation of your souls. 

The END of our faith will be our Salvation!

1Pe 1:10  Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: 

1Pe 1:11  Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow. 

1Pe 1:12  Unto whom it was revealed, that not unto themselves, but unto us they did minister the things, which are now reported unto you by them that have preached the gospel unto you with the Holy Ghost sent down from heaven; which things the angels desire to look into. 

Please, Lord, please give us the faith we need to be wholly Yours through all that is to come. Give us everything we need, everything so we can be Yours forever. Guide us, help us now and always through the LOVE of our Savior, Jesus Christ!
