Re:Verse passage – Galatians 4:21-31 (day seven)
But the Jerusalem above is free. vs 26
Did you know that you belong to a Kingdom that is not of this world (John 18:36)? Through the New Covenant, you belong to the New Jerusalem. In this Jerusalem, “there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain” (Revelation 21:4). As Pastor Chris said last week, we have hope because we know the end of the story. When the trials of this world seem too much, we have hope because we know Jesus is with us. When it seems like we will never be good enough, we have hope because Jesus is enough. When it seems like there is no one we can trust, we have hope because Jesus is King.
Even when the old Jerusalem is surrounded by chaos, we have hope because we know that the New Jerusalem will resound with praise. King Jesus, let Your Kingdom come quickly! In the meantime, we pray for the peace of Jerusalem and the salvation of all.
