A Promise For You From Bible Promises:
Topic: It Shall Not Endure Forever [25/06/2017]
But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men. 2 Peter 3:7. Read: 2 Pet 3:5-11
From scriptures, we understand that God destroyed the earth and its inhabitants with flood that lasted on earth after one hundred and fifty years. Gen 8:3. And every living thing that had the breathe of life in them died. Businesses, mighty edifices, synagogues, embezzled funds, hoarded goods (that could have been given to the hungry) even perished. From the book of Genesis and other books of the Bible, we understand that the earth cannot endure forever, everything in it shall perish in time to come.
Holy Spirit through apostle Peter has spoken to us about what will happen to this present planet called Earth we live in now. He said, it shall be burnt with fire because, right from the beginning, it has been reserved for fire. Therefore, it's wisdom to be careful not to lay your treasures upon uncertainty. If all your treasure is on earth, at the end, you will not only lose everything, also your soul would be lost. The earth is temporary so also everything on it. The only thing you and I can take out of the world is godliness and a life well lived for Christ. This only guarantees eternal life. Beloved, nothing on earth is worth dying and fighting for, don't be greedy for gain, wait on God's blessings and use it for His glory.
