Jesus Enables Us to Overcome Present Sufferings through the Glory to Be Revealed to Us in the Future ㅡ

 “For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us.”

 (Romans 8:18)

What sustained the Son of God during His life of toil and sacrifice?

Looking into eternity, He beheld the happiness of those who through His humiliation had received pardon and everlasting life.

His ear caught the shout of the redeemed.

He heard the ransomed ones singing the song of Moses and the Lamb.

By faith we may stand on the threshold of the eternal city, and hear the gracious welcome given to those who in this life co-operate with Christ, regarding it as an honor to suffer for His sake.

As the words are spoken, “Come, ye blessed of my Father,”(Matthew 25:34) they cast their crowns at the feet of the Redeemer, exclaiming, “Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessing....

Honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.” (Revelation 5:12, 13).

There the redeemed greet those who led them to the Saviour, and all unite in praising Him who died that human beings might have the life that measures with the life of God.

The conflict is over.

Tribulation and strife are at an end.

Songs of victory fill all heaven as the ransomed ones take up the joyful strain.

 (Maranatha 333)
