 Worthy Brief - December 4, 2025


Destiny and eternal glory -- when we see Him, we become like Him!


Colossians 3:4  When Christ who is our life appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory. 


1 John 3:2  Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is. 


Your identity is grounded in the present, but its fullness is revealed in the future. John writes, “Beloved, now we are children of God,” but also, “when He appears, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.” Identity begins now, but destiny is unveiled then — at the moment you behold the Bridegroom in glory.


Colossians echoes this truth: “When Yeshua (Jesus), who is our life, appears, then you also will appear with Him in glory.” Your life is hidden with Him now, but one day it will be revealed in brilliance. Everything you have become in the secret place will shine openly. Everything He has formed within you will rise in splendor. The identity we discover by faith today will be seen in fullness on that Day.


Your destiny is not merely heaven — it is union. Every moment of your journey is preparing you for the unveiling of eternity. You are being fashioned as a Bride adorned for her Bridegroom — radiant, pure, and filled with the very glory of God. The Spirit is shaping you, refining you, and clothing you with splendor for that holy moment when the heavens open, the Bridegroom calls, and you appear with Him in glory. Redemption, transformation, adoption, sanctification — all of it is leading to one breathtaking revelation: you, fully restored, fully radiant, fully like Him.


So set your hope with unwavering certainty on that glorious day. Let every heartbeat lean toward His appearing. For when you behold the Bridegroom in His glory, you will step into the fullness of who you were created to be — perfected in love, crowned with light, and united forever with the One your soul loves.


Your family in the Lord with much agape love,


George (Baltimore) & Baht Rivka (Jerusalem, Israel)

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for June 4

Charles Spurgeon's "Faith's Checkbook" Devotional for June 4 “Exceedingly Precious ” - Malachi 3:17 A day is coming in which the crown jewels of our great King shall be counted, that it may be seen whether they answer to the inventory which His Father gave Him. My soul, wilt thou be among the precious things of Jesus? Thou art precious to Him if He is precious to thee, and thou shalt be His "in that day," if He is thine in this day. In the days of Malachi, the chosen of the LORD were accustomed so to converse with each other that their God Himself listened to their talk. He liked it so well that He took notes of it; yes, and made a book of it, which He lodged in His record office. Pleased with their conversation, He was also pleased with them. Pause, my soul, and ask thyself: If Jesus lucre to listen to thy talk would He be pleased with it? Is it to His glory and to the edification of the brotherhood? Say, my soul, and be sure thou sayest the truth. But what...

Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for June 4

 Morning and Evening with A.W. Tozer Devotional for June 4 Tozer in the Morning "NOW IT IS THE LORD" Is it possible to become so enamored of God's good gifts that we fail to worship Him, the Giver? Dr. Albert B. Simpson, the founder of The Christian and Missionary Alliance, invited to preach in a Bible conference in England discovered on his arrival that he was to follow two other Bible teachers. All three had been given the same topic, "Sanctification." From the pulpit, the first speaker made clear his position that sanctification means eradication-the old carnal nature is removed. The second, a suppressionist, advised: "Sit on the lid and keep the old nature down!" Dr. Simpson in his turn quietly told his audience that he could only present Jesus Christ Himself as God's answer. "Jesus Christ is your Sanctifier, your all and in all! God wants you to get your eyes away from the gifts. He wants your gaze to be on the Giver-Christ Himself,"...

Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for June 8

 Days of Heaven on Earth Devotional for June 8 “Bread corn is bruised” (Isaiah 28:28) The farmer does not gather timothy and blue grass, and break it with a heavy machine. But he takes great pains with the wheat. So God takes great pains with those who are to be of much use to Him. There is a nature in them that needs this discipline. Don’t wonder if the bread corn is treated with the wise, discriminating care that will fit it for food. He knows the way He is taking, and there is infinite tenderness in the oversight He gives. He is watching the furnace you are in lest the heat should be too intense. He wants it great enough to purify, and then it is withdrawn. He knoweth our frame. He will not let any temptation take us but such as is common to man, and He will with the temptation also make a way to escape, that we may be able to bear it. Do you believe in this disciplining love of the Husbandman, and are you trusting Him with the leading and government of your life? Oh, that you w...
