God’s Verse for God’s people


Hebrews 10:36  

“You need to persevere so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.”

We have need of endurance to be sure, but that very need is fulfilled by virtue of the promise itself. We await that long-promised eternal and heavenly rest of Christ, and yet, as all the redeemed are already secured in the heavenly promise, so their perseverance is guaranteed. Even onto the end of the age!

Matthew 16:27  

“For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father's glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what he has done.”

Judgment, swift and final, is promised in the last day. Take heart, O believer, that your life is bound up with that of Christ Jesus. His life is your life. His obedience is your obedience. His resurrection is your resurrection. And when He stands to the fore in judgment, rejoice! For you will not stand before Him but alongside Him: holy, righteous, good, and acceptable!
