As each day comes and goes, they become weeks, months and years. We are ever drawing nearer to the end of this age of darkness. The day comes when the Light of the Glory of God shines and covers this earth. A time when all that is opposed to God in every form is bound up for 1000 years, with the master deceiver, satan. Even though Christ disarmed principalities and powers, and triumphed over them by His cross, satan is still the god of this age and world system. (See Colossians 2 : 15, Ephesians 2 : 2 and 2 Corinthians 4 : 4)
Hebrews 6 : 4, speaks of "tasting the powers of the age to come"... What Glory and splendour will we, as redeemed ones, encounter during this time. Our best imaginations fail us. To attempt to comprehend what glory will be revealed, we can only imagine. No sickness, no hatred, no weakness, no sin, nothing of the works of darkness. The earth will yield forth its fruit in absolute perfection. We will be dwelling in glorified, transfigured bodies. The overcoming believers, will be ruling cities and nations with Him, with a rod of iron.
The Fullness of Christ will have come to full maturity in us, as the one new man. The Fullness of the Godhead that dwelt in Christ, will dwell in us in perfect unity. ( See Colossians 2: 9 - 10)
Be encouraged saints of God. Although we suffer many things in this age, we have a great treasure, an eternal weight of Glory ahead of us when Christ comes to rule and reign in this earth. Hold fast, let us not waver now. Stand firm, for we shall reap what is promised. The grace of God be with you.
