In the light of many crazy things going around the world today; I have been reminded of where my true place is at. As believers, we are first and foremost citizens of the Kingdom of God. We belong to His eternal kingdom and have a greater hope through Him. What does it mean to be a citizen of Heaven?

1. We belong to a heavenly community which circumvents all other communities. Belonging to a community of like minded people means we obtain the strength and protection that comes from being in a community.

2. We obtain all the rights which come with being a citizen of Heaven.

  a. Rights of being a citizen of Heaven

    1. Eternal life

    2. Eternal Salvation

    3. Eternal hope

    4. Eternal health

    5. Eternal communion with the Lord

    6. Eternal unconditional love

    7. Eternal mercy

    8. Eternal grace and etc..

3. We are governed by a righteous and fair king.

4. We are surrounded by the Armies of God. His angels are for us.

5. We are under the Glory of the Lord.

As we see the craziness running a muck around the world today, just remember. You are a Citizen of Heaven.
