Daily D – 2 Corinthians 5:1-3

by David Bowman | Nov 29, 2025 | Daily D | 0 comments

2 Corinthians 5:1-3 For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down (that is, when we die and leave this earthly body), we will have a house in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands. We grow weary in our present bodies, and we long to put on our heavenly bodies like new clothing. For we will put on heavenly bodies; we will not be spirits without bodies. (NLT)

In case you are just now awakening from the food coma you fell into on Thursday, here is some good news. There’s a new body coming from God that never wears out, bloats, hurts, or fails to function.

Now, we have temporal bodies that wear down and out. Then, we will have eternal bodies that never grow weary. Each one is custom-made by the Maker of Heaven and Earth. There’s no better engineer or tailor. We can strive for perfection here and now with serums, nutrition plans, medication, and alterations, but we will never have it as good as we will on that day that never ends.

This goes in the category of Something Else to Thank God For.

The best is yet to be!

The mean doctor told me to stop running a few years ago. Our Father in Heaven will someday soon set me free to run without fatigue, and to my great delight.

What physical capacities are you anticipating?

My bride and daughter picked out new clothes for me yesterday. The new duds make me look more professional and stylish. Now I don’t have to do that again for a couple of years. I prefer to shop at Amazon. They prefer I not look like someone who last entered a menswear store sometime in the last decade.

As good as they make me look with what they have to work with, God has a new suit to excel anything by Joseph A. Bank.

This makes me smile as I attempt to lose five pounds this weekend before my annual physical on Monday.

I will live as well as I can in this body that is wearing down and out, and I will anticipate the body God is preparing for me that will always be full of energy and capability.

Our Father, thank you for all the adventures I’ve had in this body. Thank you for those yet to come. Thank you that the best is yet to be. Amen.

Daily D – Genesis 46:1-4

Genesis 46:1-4 So Israel set out with all that was his, and when he reached Beersheba, he offered sacrifices to the God of his father Isaac.

And God spoke to Israel in a vision at night and said, “Jacob! Jacob!”

“Here I am,” he replied.

“I am God, the God of your father,” he said. “Do not be afraid to go down to Egypt, for I will make you into a great nation there. I will go down to Egypt with you, and I will surely bring you back again. And Joseph’s own hand will close your eyes.”

Daily D – Genesis 45:4-8

Genesis 45:4-8 Then Joseph said to his brothers, “Come close to me.” When they had done so, he said, “I am your brother Joseph, the one you sold into Egypt! And now, do not be distressed and do not be angry with yourselves for selling me here, because it was to save lives that God sent me ahead of you. For two years now there has been famine in the land, and for the next five years there will be no plowing and reaping. But God sent me ahead of you to preserve for you a remnant on earth and to save your lives by a great deliverance.

“So then, it was not you who sent me here, but God. He made me father to Pharaoh, Lord of his entire household and ruler of all Egypt.”

Daily D – Genesis 41:1

Genesis 41:1 “When two full years had passed, Pharaoh had a dream: He was standing by the Nile,”

Daily D – Genesis 39:2-6

Genesis 39:2-6 Now Joseph had been taken down to Egypt. Potiphar, an Egyptian who was one of Pharaoh’s officials, the captain of the guard, bought him from the Ishmaelites who had taken him there. The Lord was with Joseph so that he prospered, and he lived in the house of his Egyptian master. When his master saw that the Lord was with him and that the Lord gave him success in everything he did, Joseph found favor in his eyes and became his attendant. Potiphar put him in charge of his household, and he entrusted to his care everything he owned. From the time he put him in charge of his household and of all that he owned, the Lord blessed the household of the Egyptian because of Joseph. The blessing of the Lord was on everything Potiphar had, both in the house and in the field. So Potiphar left everything he had in Joseph’s care; with Joseph in charge, he did not concern himself with anything except the food he ate.

Daily D – Genesis 35:27-29

Genesis 35:27-29 Jacob came home to his father Isaac in Mamre, near Kiriath Arba (that is, Hebron), where Abraham and Isaac had stayed. Isaac lived a hundred and eighty years. Then he breathed his last and died and was gathered to his people, old and full of years. And his sons Esau and Jacob buried him.
