SCRIPTURE:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Yes, we are fully confident, and we would rather be away from these earthly bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord.\u201d (2 Corinthians 5:8<\/a>, NLT).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

DEVOTIONAL:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first step to operating in the fourth dimension is to understand that this physical world we see and live in is not all there is. There is another, unseen realm that is just as real and even more powerful than this one. We call it the Kingdom of God. In my role as a pastor I have given many eulogies over the years for those who have gone on to be with the Lord, as we say. We often call their funerals home-goings because if the person was born again by having accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior, they are not really dead but have simply transitioned to another realm. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The apostle Paul spoke about this truth when he wrote, <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our bodies are like tents that we live in here on earth. But when these tents are destroyed, we know that God will give each of us a place to live. These homes will not be buildings someone has made, but they are in heaven and will last forever. God is the one who makes all this possible. He has given us his Spirit to make us certain he will do it. So always be cheerful! As long as we are in these [natural] bodies, we are away from the Lord. But we live by faith, not by what we see. (2 Corinthians 5:1, 5\u20137, CEV)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We live in two realms\u2014natural and spiritual. This month, we will explore how to \u201cmove up to the fourth dimension (4D).\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

PRAYER:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dear Father, thank you for the promise we have in Christ Jesus as born-again believers that though our bodies perish here on the earth, we transition to Heaven and will be with You forever. In Jesus\u2019 Name, Amen.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
