GLORY TIME

1 Peter 1:10‭-‬11 Of which salvation the prophets have enquired and searched diligently, who prophesied of the grace that should come unto you: Searching what, or what manner of time the Spirit of Christ which was in them did signify, when it testified beforehand the sufferings of Christ, and the glory that should follow.‬

If you listen to what some folks are preaching around the world, you will think that the Christian life is a life of suffering. Of course I believe in suffering for Christ, where one suffer because of his faith in Jesus; I am simply saying that, I believe in persecution as a result of your faith in Christ.

But suffering poverty, sickness, lack, depression and the likes is unnecessary in this era of glory. From our opening scripture, we are told about the sufferings of Christ and the glory that should follow. Now that the suffering of Christ been fulfilled, it is glory time, nothing more, nothing less.

Most peoples' perception of the “glory that should follow” is in the sweet bye and bye. But that’s not true. The essence of Christ’s death is not only for the sweet bye and bye. His death is relevant in today’s world. There is the glory to be experienced in the here now.

What is that glory? The glory is many being born again, filled with the Holy Ghost, being loaded with the word of God, health, financial prosperity, peace of mind, sound marriage etc. These things and many more are the things that you should be enjoying now on earth.

Salvation is for the now also and not the just the sweet bye and bye. Someone rightly said, there is “hell fire” and there is also “earth fire”. One goes to hell for not accepting Christ as Lord. One goes through earth fire for not knowing and applying the word of God concerning Christ’s redemptive work.

Don’t go through life limping and suffering. Suffering in this world is unnecessary now. This is simply because, it is “glory time”. Refuse to be poor and average in life. Don’t allow any kind of sickness into your body. Don’t succumb to demonic oppression. Take your place in Christ today.
