Promises - Tree of Life

[Christ4Ever]

He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the tree of life, which is in the midst of the paradise of God. (Revelation 2:7)

Life and life eternal! That is the promise of God to all His people. The redeemed will conquer and their reward is to eat of the tree of life forever! Their heavenly rest is won, enjoyed, and assured. No more fear. No more anxiety. No more suffering. They eat of the fruit of God and are comforted!

[amadeus2]

The promise is to "him that overcometh". It would behoove us then to overcome. Jesus overcame the world and He made a Way for us to do it. It is not done when we first repent and receive the Holy Ghost, is it? Those are a beginning, but they are not the end. When will we be able to say with Jesus, "It is finished?"

 

[Christ4Ever]

As with it when He said "Come to me" and we did.
When we hear "Welcome good and faithful servant".

So, we hold onto the promises to reinforce us while on the path of overcoming.

You are a joy brother!

Always with the Love of Christ Jesus.
