‘At Home With The Lord One Day.’
2 Corinthians 5:1-8.
a) 2 Corinthians 5:1. We know that we are going to have a new body from God in Heaven.
b) 2 Corinthians 5:2. Sometimes on this Earth we groan – longing for the Heaven experience.
c) 2 Corinthians 5:3. In Heaven we will not be found naked – there is no more shame.
d) 2 Corinthians 5:4. In Heaven there will be no more burdens, only Everlasting Life.
e) 2 Corinthians 5:5. God is preparing us for Heaven and has given us the Holy Spirit as His pledge.
f) 2 Corinthians 5:6. We have confidence because we know that one day we will leave this Earthly home – our body.
g) 2 Corinthians 5:7. We walk by Faith and not by sight.
h) 2 Corinthians 5:8. We are confident and prefer to be at home with the Lord.
(This QT assures me that I will be at home with the Lord one day)

‘Keep Our Focus Right.'
2 Corinthians 4:16-18.
a) 2 Corinthians 4:16. We do not lose heart even though we are physically decaying, our inner man is being renewed day by day.
b) 2 Corinthians 4:17. For momentary, light affliction is producing for us an Eternal weight of Glory far beyond all comparison,
c) 2 Corinthians 4:18. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is Eternal.
(This Second one helps me to Keep My Focus Right)

If we are True Believers we need to realise that our inner man is being renewed day by day through our personal relationship with God. The renewal of the inner man is much more important than the healing of the outer man. Outer man is a temporary tent. Inner man is Eternal.
