TRANSITION
David Abankwah
READ: Hebrews 11:13
For we are aliens and PILGRIMS before You, as were all our fathers; OUR DAYS ON EARTH ARE AS A SHADOW, and without hope.
-I Chronicles 29:15 | NKJV
Transition is a passage from one state, stage, subject, or place to another; a movement, development, or evolution from one form, stage, or style to another. When we normally see the posters of those who are dead, we normally see the inscription, ‘TRANSITION.’ Because of that, many think transition is all about those who are dead and gone, but there is more to transition than just a physical death. All the souls of living things were in God (Jesus Christ) before creation. So everything God created or said that came to being, came from Him. If we see plants around, they made their transition from God. If we see various animals, both wild and domestic, they made their transition from God.
The earth made its transition from God and all its fullness. The heaven which came to being, made its transition together with all the host of the four living creatures, twenty-four elders, archangels and their domain of angels. After Jesus Christ (God) made everything both visible and invisible, He created man with dust and made a transition of his soul from His breath into the body. Before man fell, some angels led by Lucifer, made another transition from their various positions in heaven and were casted down. Because they had their various positions, they made their transitions into those domains. Those who ruled over celestial bodies, inhabited there.
Those who were very powerful were chained by God which one of them was Death. Those who ruled over the waters, inhabited there but for Satan, he had no place because he was in charge of music and there was no God on earth he had to sing to, that was why he found the likeness of God (man) and ministered to him through Eve and through that, man fell. After that, the hosts of heaven have all made transitions to this world before. The heavenly angels make transitions from heaven onto earth to attend to men. The four living creatures have made transitions from heaven onto the earth as human beings (Abraham, Moses, Noah, and Elijah).
The twenty-four elders also made transitions from heaven onto earth (12 being the 12 tribes of Israel and 12 being the 12 Apostles with Paul inclusive). God has even made transition to this world through His Word and now His name is Jesus Christ. Man who made a transition from the breath of God onto the earth was now pronounced with another transition from the earth to a temporal hereafter (whether Hades or Paradise) and the body making its transition from a living body to a dead body (dust). After the second coming of Jesus Christ, the soul will make another transition which is eternal from Hades/Paradise into the lake of fire/New Jerusalem.
•| Prayer Diary |•
Lift up prayers for discovery of your divine purpose on earth and the diligence of working out such mission before making a transition to the hereafter in the name of Jesus Christ.
Quote
The earth is a place of transition where God makes selection of His elects for eternal settlement in New Jerusalem.
