Do Your Kingdom Work

He said to them: “It is not for you to know the times or dates the Father has set by his own authority. But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit comes on you; and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem, and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the ends of the earth.” Acts 1:7-8

The goal of any believer in Jesus is to one day be ‘with’ Him – not left behind Him or up ahead of Him – but simply with Him. There are no shortcuts or deals that will give you an advantage on being with our Savior. You already know He is with you if you are nurturing an intimate relationship with Him. You know that you are with Him through the Holy Spirit Who lives inside of you. Wondering about what our Father is up to, or when He is going to do something is a normal curiosity of the human species. However, paying a palm reader and indulging in other means of calculating when you think God is making a move is a dangerous case of nosiness! Why don’t you take God at His Word, live according to what He says, and be about your work of sharing and planting the truth of His Word to all people? It is a satisfying joy to know that no matter whatever date or time our Savior calls for us, our work here in the earth will be done and we can be with Him forever.
