Colossians 3:3-4; “For you
died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God. When Christ, who is your
life, appears, then you also will appear with him in glory.”
We weren’t raised with Christ and left in the graveyard. We may be
physically on earth but spiritually we should be soaring. Heavenly-minded
people are living a life with the foundation of an eternal existence.
Heavenly minded people live Isaiah 40:30, which states: “Even youths grow tired and weary, and young
men stumble and fall; but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength.
They will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they
will walk and not be faint.”
Heavenly Minded is to SOAR in life because Jesus lives and working
in our lives today and is working to give us a greater future.
How
sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And
feel the pride and joy he brings;
But
greater still the calm assurance:
This
child can face uncertain days because He Lives!
And
then one day, I'll cross the river,
I'll
fight life's final war with pain;
And
then, as death gives way to victory,
I'll
see the lights of glory and I'll know He lives!
Because
He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because
He lives, all fear is gone;
Because
I know He holds the future,
And
life is worth the living,
Just
because He lives!
My Friends like that Eagle, we weren’t made to remain on the
ground, we were made to spiritually soar. “SOAR” We weren’t raised with Christ
and left in the graveyard, we weren’t raised with Christ to mire in crud … we
were made to reflect love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness,
faithfulness, gentleness and self control…Run and not grow weary… Walk and not
be faint…heavenly minded is the foundation for an eternal existence that fuels
our every action and reaction.
Being a Jesus follower is being heavenly minded because that is
where Jesus is … He is our foundation for optimism. Jesus defines the best
possible outcome because of his love. We are to diligently, actively,
single-mindedly pursue the things of Jesus. We need to be a generation of
heavenly minded people who see human beings and the earth itself not simply as
they are … but as God intended them to be…
Heavenly minded is to live optimistically because of the
foundation of an active Jesus, of right living, and an eternal existence.
