Rom 8:22-23 (AMP) We know that the whole creation [of irrational creatures] has been moaning together in the pains of labor until now. [Jer 12:4,11.] 23 And not only the creation, but we ourselves too, who have and enjoy the firstfruits of the [Holy] Spirit [a foretaste of the blissful things to come] groan inwardly as we wait for the redemption of our bodies [from sensuality and the grave, which will reveal] our adoption (our manifestation as God’s sons).
Danjuma’s Father insisted that Danjuma was no longer going to have access to the family’s great wealth because he was now born again. His father thought he could sway him with money and make him change his mind. Unknown to Danjuma’s father, Danjuma had received the full gospel message and understood that true riches have been reserved for the sons of God. Danjuma once told his sister this: “in the fullness of time, you and the entire family will understand that I did not choose poverty, I chose true riches. When that time comes, you will see what true wealth is when you see me in glory.”
It is the redemption of our bodies that will reveal our true nature as sons of God.
When the rapture happens and our bodies are redeemed, we shall be like the Lord and shall be glorified. We shall no longer be subject to the forces of corruption but will be fully incorruptible. In this glorified state, we will be very powerful and super intelligent. We will come back to this earth with our Lord and take over the government of this world for one thousand years (see Rev 20:6). Other humans who are not sons of God will still have this corruptible body of flesh. The greatest among them will less than the least among us.
Go into today looking forward to the redemption of our bodies. Anyone who has this hope keeps himself pure as He is pure( see 1 John 3:3).
—Abraham Damilola Arigi
