Revelation 21:2-4
The Wondrous Gift is Christ – sent to earth as a fulfillment of God’s promises of a Messiah, a Savior. Jesus promised His disciples a Comforter. Even though He was returning to heaven, His Spirit would reside in them. The Holy Spirit fulfills this promise to this day as He makes His home within us preparing us for our eternal home. He is the down payment, the assurance, that God will keep the rest of His promises to His children. He will rescue them from the grave. He will welcome them into heaven. And He will dwell with them forever. How has God kept His promises to you? How will you bear testimony of His trustworthiness to others? For Deeper Thought… The last verse asks Christ to cast out our sin and abide with us.
