Have You Obtained Your Visa

Text : John 14:1-6

Today,many people have the quest to travel out of their country to foreign land. They will do all that is within their power to obtain the visa to such place (s). Some strive to send their wards abroad.

Others travel round the world, taking delight in such that they have arrived. Now, all that is good but not complete if you have not obtained your visa to heaven. Sending your wards abroad is good but not complete if you have not made effort to ensure they make heaven.

On the other hand, many parents make so much effort to see their children secure admission to higher institution. They are ready to spend and be spent for it. This is laudable.

In the same vein, are we making such efforts too to see that our children enter heaven when they graduate from this earth?

The holy scriptures tells us that we are in the world and not of the world.

That we should lay our treasure where thieves cannot break through and steal. That our we should lay up our treasure in heaven, for where our treasure is, there shall our heart be.

Sister, brother, where is your treasure?

For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and lose his own soul? Mark 8:36

JESUS IS THE VISA to heaven. He is the way, the truth and the life, no man comes to the father except through Him. So, have you obtained Him? Has your wards obtained Him? Do you also strive to travel to heaven, a better and more beautiful place that Jesus Himself has gone to prepare for us and He is coming back soon to receive us unto Himself on an expense paid trip to be with Him there forever? John 14:1-6.

What do you glory in? That you are traveling abroad, that your wards are all abroad?

But God forbid that I should glory expect in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, by whom theand I to the world. Gal. 6:14.world has been Crucified to me, and I to the world. Gal. 6:14.

Thus says the LORD:"Let not the wise man glory in his wisdom, let not the mighty man glory in his might, nor let the rich man glory in his riches;but let him who glories glory in this : That he understands and knows Me, that I am the Lord, exercising loving kindness, judgment and righteousness in the earth. For in these I delight"says the Lord.
