This World is Not Our Home

This world is not our home, and the hope we have in Christ is worth far more than anything this world can offer.

In 1 Peter 1:1–5, Peter writes to believers who are scattered throughout the world, reminding them of their identity and their living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Because of God's great mercy, we have been born again into an inheritance that is incorruptible, undefiled, and that does not fade away. It is reserved in Heaven for those who belong to Christ and are kept by the power of God through faith.

Our circumstances may change. Our earthly possessions may disappear. The world around us may be uncertain. But the promises of God remain secure.

As citizens of Heaven, our hope is not in what we can hold onto here, but in the inheritance God has promised us through Jesus Christ.

Are you living with your eyes fixed on the inheritance that awaits you?
