Luke 12:32 - It Is God's Good Pleasure to Give You The Kingdom.

Luke 12:32 (NKJV) Do not fear, little flock, 
for it is your Father's good pleasure to give 
you the kingdom.  

Luke 12:32 (ESV) Fear not, little flock, for 
it is your Fathers good pleasure to give you 
the kingdom.  

COMMENTARY PEARL

Another Existence
   Kurt Gdel was a Czech logician whose 
reason led him to believe in an afterlife. He 
taught that science shows how much order there is 
in this life, which always ends before we can 
accomplish even "1/1,000" of our potential; therefore, 
there must be "another existence." 
   Whatever one thinks of Gdel's 
reasoning, his point of "another existence" after this 
one is certainly true - though not until the 
resurrection. The biblical term for this is "salvation." 
   In our promise today, Jesus assures us of 
that salvation. Don't fear, He says, which itself 
is comforting. Then He calls us His "little 
flock," a term of endearment spoken by the Good 
Shepherd (John 10:11). Finally, Jesus says that it's 
the Father's pleasure, His desire, to give us 
the kingdom that will last forever (Daniel 
7:27). How much more assurance do we need? 
   The Bible says that all of us are 
sinners. And we know that only too well, don't we? 
Which is why it is so easy to doubt our own 
salvation. Yet we must not allow the enemy of our souls 
to make us think that our case is hopeless. 
Indeed, it is hopeless only without Jesus. 
   That's why you must focus on what Jesus 
has done for you at the cross - and not on your 
mistakes, sins, and character flaws. If you do, you 
will eventually give up all hope. Remember this 
one point: Your salvation is found in Jesus and 
not in yourself. To keep that great truth ever 
in mind is the key to the assurance that Jesus 
offers us. 
   Lord Jesus, when I look at myself, I can 
only despair. Help me to look at You and what You 
have done for me at the cross. [The Most Amazing
