Many people are fighting over land. They are filled with greed, scratching and clawing to get their hands on a piece of dirt.
It matters to them very little that in the process of this rampage their hands are filthy with the grime of hatred and unforgiveness.
They are overly possessive; refusing to share; refusing to give. Their minds are consumed with land ownership and ‘belongership.’
Their hope is only in this life so their citizenship is beneath the dust of the earth.
But, the children of the King put not their hopes in earthly vessels for they look for a city whose builder and maker is God.
The children of the King lay not their treasures on this earth where moth and rust corrupt.
The children of the King is passing through this land.
They are moving forward to a home beyond the sky.
A home where the river of life flows and the tree of life blooms in all its glory.
The children of the King are moving forward.
We are not tarrying! We are not hoarding! We are not settling!
We are moving forward to a heavenly land where our citizenship is sealed and no man can revoke.
Hallelujah!
Where is your citizenship?

Beverley has been serving the Lord since she was a child. At an early age, she recognized that God had a special plan for her life, but it was not until in her adulthood that she surrendered her total life to God and accepted the mandate that God placed on her life. The Lord called her into His Kingdom to be an encourager, intercessor, teacher, scribe, priest, and to proclaim the Word of God.
Since then, Beverly has established a blog to teach us to become the oil and wine. The oil and wine are purified and mature products, which is the advanced level that the Lord expected of us.
In 2017, Beverley published her first book, Harm Not The Oil And Wine. In it, she described her trials and how God helped her to overcome them, and to live more victoriously. The book also exposed the enemy of our souls with detailed information about his past defeats and future extinction.
Wright spents most of her time studying the Bible to know the truth of God’s Word. She believes that only God’s truth can expose the deception of the enemy, and uproot and tear down spiritual strongholds.
You can learn more about Beverley’s life and testimony on her website becomingtheoilandwine.com.
You can also find her on Facebook and Google+ under the name of her blog, and on Twitter as @Theoilandwine.

Thanks Dawn…this reminds me of I post I wrote two years ago but did not post it.
Because our citizenship is in heaven, we are strangers here. We are in the world, but we do not belong to the world. This is something that happens automatically. When we are visiting another country, we do not become a part of that country. We are still strangers, we are conscious of it, and so is everybody else. And you and I, as Christians, have become strangers in this world.
I am a citizen of heaven and by God’s grace I shall be a good one as my behaviour is governed by heavens laws

Even when we are born in a country we should not behave as if we have all rights to the land. God owns this earth and we are passing through.

Yes, fighting over land esp in the Middle East. A part of me finds it amusing. It’s desert, sand , rocks, frigid mountains. Landscape of the moon seems more appealing.

You are so right. It sounds foolish for is to fight over a piece of rock. We can’t take it with us.
