2 Peter 3:13 “But in keeping with GOD’s promise, we are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells.”
Land Ho!
“Land Ho!” cries the watchman through spiritual eyes; and each soul — most expectant — for Paradise Found.
Though a gap still exists before reaching those shores, such believers stand ready. So rejoice with their choir!
And! Speak to all others; those captives nearby; share the Joy of the LORD WHO draws nigh to our vessels.
For into HIS Harbor, to dock within Glory; we soon shall be anchored! So hear me, “Land Ho!”
As HIServant, scribe and fellow watchman shouting the news in advance,

Devotional: Philippians 3:20-21 “But our citizenship is in heaven, and we eagerly await a SAVIOUR from there,
…the LORD JESUS CHRIST, WHO, by the power that enables HIM to subject all things to HIMSELF,
…will transform our lowly bodies to be like HIS glorious body!”
“Land Ho!” is a well known phrase shouted by the ship’s watchman to inform the crew that land has been spotted.
While we yet remain in our vessels at present, it’s obvious to those intently watching for JESUS…that we’re almost Home!
Such is this call to serve relentlessly wherever you’re at by sharing HIS greatest news with everyone on board.
“Land Ho! Land Ho! HE is bringing us Home!”
Amen and amen!
