Rom 8:24-25
24 For in [this] hope we were saved. But hope [the object of] which is seen is not hope. For how can one hope for what he already sees?
25 But if we hope for what is still unseen by us, we wait for it with patience and composure.

There is a hope to which you are called and just in case you need proof for this hope God has sent the Holy Spirit (who gives gifts) as a proof of what we have.
The message of the kingdom establishes in us a God consciousness and a kingdom consciousness. We need to live in the awareness that we are in a kingdom and that kingdom is not of this world. We are no more of this world because God has bought us with a price.
There is nothing in the scripture that suggest we are of this world. We are in a new kingdom different from that of the world so we are to live here as aliens and pilgrims, manifesting the power and nature of God and making the best use of this little time we have to do our fathers bidding. We are going to rule and reign with Christ for all eternity in this world and in the world to come.
