Is today your day of deliverance?

Revelation 21: 2-4
I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.

How can we read this today and be in tears about the problems that stare at us today? God is clear about his message of salvation and redemption and it is a message for today!

This is not just revelation about the future but about now. He has made a dweling for Himself in us!

Jesus sent out the 70 and told them to do signs and wonders and tell the people that the Kingdom of God is at hand. His will be done on earth as it is in heaven so this word is for us today.

He will wipe away every tear. We no longer have to live in fear of unfulfilled promises because Christ died to fulfill all these promises and put away the old order of things.

How will you face your troubles today? Will it be with the bold victory mindset of Revelation or will you doubtfuly wonder if today might be your day of deliverance?
