OPEN HEAVEN

Before the Lord Jesus began His public ministry, He was baptized by John in Jordan River. As he came out of the water we find the HEAVEN OPEN.

Water baptism is an external rite that every believer professes his death to sin and resurrection to spiritual life. (Rom 6:5; Col 2:12).

It also symbolizes our death to self. As we came out of the water, it symbolizes our new life in God and with God to enjoy. As we enjoy and live our life in God and with God…We can see and experience an OPEN HEAVEN all the days of our life.

Life’s journey may not that be easy but God is with us and for us. And if God is for us, who can be against us? We have something to be afraid of in this life, if God is against us. Just think about what may happen if God is against us.

But Praise God, We have nothing to be afraid of in this life. As we continually live in the light of His perfect will and whole heartedly obey and serve Him the good shepherd will surely lead us to the greener pasture and we’ll never be in want.

If they obey and serve Him, They shall spend their days in prosperity, And their years in pleasures. (Job 36:11 NKJV)

Cheer up fellow citizen of the Blessed Kingdom of the Living God…Jesus cares for you. We can see and experience in this season of OVERFLOW the OPEN HEAVEN.

TO GOD BE THE GLORY!!!
