What Makes Life Truly Worth Living?

What kind of life is truly worth living?

A life with the long-range in mind.

Notice what Jesus promised his disciples who’d be faithful to the end—those he calls the “overcomers”:

· The right to eat from the Tree of Life in God’s Paradise, forever. (Rev. 2:7)

· The Crown of Life, and escape from the “second death”. Rev. 2:10-11)

· The Hidden (secret) Manna & a white stone with your new heavenly name written on it. (Rev. 2:17)

· The authority to rule over the nations with  the Morning Star (Jesus). (Rev. 2:26-28 & 22:16)

· The right walk with Jesus dressed in heavenly white, your name permanently in the Lamb’s Book of Life, and to have Jesus call you by name in front of the Father and the angels. (Rev. 3:4-5)

· The permanent position as a pillar in the Temple of God, the right to wear God’s name and the name of the New Jerusalem, and a new name given by Jesus himself. (Rev. 3:12)

· The right to sit with Jesus on his throne  next to the Father. (Rev. 3:21)

            “He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the churches.” (Rev. 3:22)

No Other Gods! -8 "Why Prayer Matters" – The Calhoun Church of Christ Podcast

The path to putting God first begins with prayer. So, why aren't more Christians actively crafting a powerful prayer life? Because there's something missing in the way they understand prayer and how God chooses to work. God isn't controlling everything on earth. If he is, your prayers don't matter. If he is, you can pray and pray, and he will still do what he's going to do no matter what we say. But he gives us choices. God doesn't force us to pray, to read the Bible, to attend church, or even to accept Christ and be saved. We have the power of choice, so when we choose to pray, it matters. Listen and hear more about why your prayers matter.
