MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL 10TH JULY 2021
The expression “heavenly patriotism” basically means “love of heavenly country and willingness to sacrifice for it. In accordance with today’s devotional fire scripture, since we are ultimately citizens of heaven, then our lives should reflect a higher loyalty. We should actually live as obedient citizens of heaven, no matter how mere citizens of the earth may live their lives all around us.
By faith, Abraham obeyed when he was called to go out to the place which he would receive as an inheritance. And he went out, not knowing where he was going. By faith, he dwelt in the land of promise as in a foreign country, dwelling in tents with Isaac and Jacob, the heirs with him of the same promise; for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God. We are thus ultimately citizens of a heavenly country and a heavenly city, and we must live our lives here on earth as strangers and pilgrims who are just passing through.
This means living lives that demonstrate our allegiance to our heavenly King. It means loving our heavenly country and being willing to sacrifice for it, even when doing so puts us at odds with those who are merely citizens of this earth. If we keep our focus where it should be and realize that we look forward to a far better place, then we will also be enabled to persevere in faith just as our forefathers were.
We must not forget that we are ultimately strangers and pilgrims on the earth, but that this does not mean that we are not actually also citizens of an earthly country to which we also owe allegiance and obedience. As a matter of fact, as sojourners and pilgrims on this earth we are to be good citizens who pray for and submit to those in authority for the sake of the Gospel and the glory of God. And this makes us even better citizens of our earthly country.
Indeed, it means that we should be willing to show the love of Christ to and for our country, even to the point of sacrifice for the good of our country. We are ambassadors for Christ here but for a short time, and then we will be in heaven, our true and eternal home with Jesus.
