The heaven, [even] the heavens, [are] the LORD’s; But the earth He has given to the children of men. Psalm 115:16 (NKJV)
Earth is not for the devil and his demons. God created it and gave it to man. Even though man sinned and permitted the devil to have power on earth, Jesus came and stripped the devil of all his claims on earth.The earth is part of our inheritance in Christ – Galatians 3:29; Romans 4:13 Earth is not for suffering as we endure to go to heaven to enjoy.God loves the earth He created and has promised to restore it to perfect harmony.But even now though the earth just as the rest of creation is experiencing groaning, we can find good and enjoy the earth.The only balance needed is not to think that earthly achievements and possessions are all we have to pursue and live for, but we ought to use earthly resources and advantages to live for God. We live with a heavenly attitude on earth. We find out and walk out God’s purpose for us on earth.
