1 John 3:2–"Beloved, we are God's children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when He appears we shall be like Him, because we shall see Him as He is."
O how I long for this day, when all things will be made right and true as we are brought into the divine presence so that we might see Him as He truly is! In truth, the very essence of our hope as Christians depends upon Christ and His identity. It is as we see Him that we are brought to Him. In my own life, I can attest that my story of faith has always been entirely dependent upon catching a vision of the Lord as He is. I can then not think of anything greater than the promise to see God as He is! What a beautiful day that will be!

Zech. 14:9–The Lord Will Be King
Zechariah 14:9–"And the Lord will be King over all the earth. On that day the Lord will be one and His name one."
The promises of God are certain. The promises of God are sure. This is one of those promises, that God will be King over all the earth. He is the One. This is it, everything. As Christians, the totality eternal hope depends upon the fact that God is faithful to fulfill all that He has promised through His Son, Christ Jesus.
In the end, perhaps the only appropriate response to this verse is a loud and resounding AMEN!
