Being a Bride in this perishing world!

How can we be His bride ?

For a person to become the bride of someone                      

• First thing they need to meet each other.
• Need to believe in each other.
• Love wholeheartedly.
• All thoughts too influenced by this love and directed towards it.
• Considers most important as it determines the future life.
• The love that is received  mold one to lead a new pattern of life . 

If human love has such effects , what transformation can the everlasting love of God make in a person!

The after-effects of this everlasting love, 

• All her sins forgiven and she gets a clear conscience free of sin, peace & joy rule her heart.And hence all her thoughts influenced by His love and directed towards His love to feel His presence more & more day by day.
• Considers her companionship with her master the most important thing of her life. The most joyous thing in her life.It determines her future also, an everlasting & abundant life with Him.
• The love that is received mold her to lead a new pattern of life with Him here on earth among the other people and also with Him in the new world to come. She is well aware of what the Lord has prepared for her and hence transform herself  day by day for that new Kingdom. 
• The bride of Christ will love Him wholeheartedly. All her love will be towards Him. Communicate with Him, Believe Him in all circumstances as "all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose."

                     Romans 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us  from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

When we come to read John chapter 3 verses 16 we see ; 'For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son , so that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but Have the everlasting Life.'
           Here God shows His greatest love towards us. He sends His only begotten son to become our Savior. By becoming His bride we are actually saved from this perishing world. The world is actually perishing, but God wants us to escape from this destruction; but the only way is being united with His Son, so that we are escaped from destruction. We who are united with Him are escaped from the world that is destined for destruction and leave with Him to another world He prepared for us to live a life everlasting with Him . This is His love, the love of Him who came to save us.

His love draws us to Himself and makes us members of his body.
By believing in His soul-saving death and living His life  we are actually pleasing God.
To get united with Him as one body (Betrothal) requires 2 things.

1. With our faith in Him we baptize in water in His name. (Betrothal- unite with Him as one Body)  (Romans 6:4-6 )
2. We wait in His presence to receive the anointing of His Holy Spirit which He gives as a Gift. It is the symbol (the ring) of the betrothal.   (Ephesians 1:13)

Thus we unite with Him and became aliens to this world . We who united with Him will leave the world today or tomorrow when He returns.., , . Through our  communication with Him (through His words and our words (prayers)), we are actually being molded ourselves to live our entire life with Him. This communication will enhance our love towards Him and our minds get changed so that we no longer want to live for this perishing world but to live for a nonperishable life with our Savior.

Ro 8:39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

  Ro 8:28 And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose.

Romans 6:4-6 "Therefore we were buried with Him through baptism into death, that just as Christ was raised from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.For if we have been united together in the likeness of His death, certainly we also shall be in the likeness of His resurrection,knowing this, that our old man was crucified with Him, that the body of sin might be done away with, that we should no longer be slaves of sin.For he who has died has been freed from sin."

Ephesians 1:13 Eph 1:13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise,who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.

Amen!
