"God having provided something better for us." (Heb.11:40, NKJV).
The end of all things should always be successful, the beginning of all things can be humble or rich or even down to nothing. All that ends well is always well and good. The end always brings glory to God. The end is the completed product of a maker who has calculated something to finish well and glorious for His Glory! How we have started our life doesn't matter, it may be a humble beginning of a godless atmosphere that has affected our life deeply and might have humbled us, but have made us seek the true Lord God through Jesus Christ who have saved us now to make us inherit the eternal life of friendship with God. Praise the Lord! So what is our ambition now? Now that we are saved, do we desire to live and make it a ambition to please God or live one among the world citizen to continue to run a rat race to acquire thing and live for it which adds no flavor to the Christian life except more sorrow?
God gave the Israelite's a promise of natural blessings for the obedience to the law if kept perfectly and sincerely. So all they could hope in life was protection from enemies, a earthly nation where prosperity could make them happy temporally in their life and living. But to us Christians, "God having provided something better for us," has told us to walk by faith to experience a heavenly life of God on earth. O What A Privilege! No humans from the day of creation were able to overcome sin, self and Satan to master them and live a life of freedom and liberty on earth. Jesus was the first man to ever live that heavenly life of liberty through the Spirit of God!
Now that Jesus have become an example for all of us believers, now we should have an desire to live that heavenly life and have only one ambition in life, (i.e.) to live pleasing to God. When we live such a life, God has given all the promises in the Bible and have said to us who have such ambition, 'All things that are mine belongs to you, as all things that are yours become mine.'! If we live in the center of the will of God and live fully pleasing to God, not only a heavenly life of liberty in the spirit is available to us now, but a terrific future of great glory is promised to us where we will live as a close friend and serve God in joy and gladness for all eternity. So whatever need that God provides on earth to help us to fulfill our destiny is only a bonus, but the reward and wages for all our service for God on earth are the eternal treasures that cannot be taken away from us for eternity. Tell me, is it not a something of a better and the best deal God has provided for us the CHURCH! HEAR O SAINTS and serve the LORD who IS GOOD humbly all the days of your life!
Much Blessings......
