Day 14Day 14Don’t live for this life,but for your heavenly home.Think about, discuss or pray about the verse that relates most to your life:Luke 16:9 (Jesus said) “I tell you, use worldly wealth to gain friendsfor yourselves, so that when it is gone, you will be welcomed intoeternal dwellings.”Hebrews 11:13-16 These men of faith…agreed that this earth wasnot their real home but that they were just strangers visiting downhere…they were looking forward to their real home in heaven. If theyhad wanted to, they could have gone back to the good things of thisworld. But they didn’t want to. They were living for heaven. And nowGod is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has made a heavenlycity for them. TLBHebrews 13:14,16 For this world is not our home; we are lookingforward to our everlasting home in heaven…Don’t forget to do goodand to share what you have. TLBHebrews 11:10 (Abraham) was looking forward to the city withfoundations, whose architect and builder is God.1 Corinthians 3:12-15 If any man builds on this foundation usinggold, silver, costly stones, wood, hay or straw, his work will be shownfor what it is, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealedwith fire, and the fire will test the quality of each man’s work. If whathe has built survives, he will receive his reward. If it is burned up,he will suffer loss; he himself will be saved, but only as one escapingthrough the flames.2 Corinthians 5:10 For we must all appear before the judgment seatof Christ, that each one may receive what is due him for the thingsdone while in the body, whether good or bad.29Our real worth is what will be ours in eternity.
