HIS GLORIOUS BODY

Philippians 3:20-21 But our citizenship is in heaven. And we eagerly await a Savior from there, the Lord Jesus Christ, who, by the power that enables him to bring everything under his control, will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body. (NIV)

The Bible declares that there are heavenly bodies and earthly bodies. 1 Corinthians 15:40 There are also heavenly bodies and there are earthly bodies; but the splendor of the heavenly bodies is one kind, and the splendor of the earthly bodies is another. 

Simply say, there is a body used in heaven and there is a body used on earth. This our earthly body cannot be used in heaven.
We cannot enter heaven with our earthly bodies. We will have to be changed. And the Bible says in 1 Corinthians 15:51, "Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed —"

How exactly are we going to look when we are changed? We shall be exactly like Jesus. 1 John 3:2 ...But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.

We shall put on Jesus' glorious body. How glorious that would be! What a day! 
Our citizenship is truly in heaven. We are only here as Ambassadors from there. One day soon the Lord Jesus our great God and saviour will come for us. And '...will transform our lowly bodies so that they will be like his glorious body.' Philippians 3:21. 

We have no idea how glorious that glorious body would be. But we know that it shall be the highest glory ever. How we would be free from the limitations of this earthly body unto the liberty and glory of His glorious body. 
As you look forward to that great day get the unsaved saved and prepare them to meet their God.

PRAYER

Father I thank You that my citizenship is in heaven, and I eagerly await a saviour from there, the Lord Jesus Christ. Who by the power that enables Him to bring everything under His control, will transform my lowly body so that they will be like His glorious body, and so shall I ever be with Him. Amen.
