Monday Mission - Read about Heaven
So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.
— 1 Corinthians 10:31
Spend a few minutes reading scripture about what Heaven will be like. If you read the Friday post you were reminded that spending eternity in Heaven is a promise for all that believe and follow Jesus. But what will Heaven be like?
Revelation 7:17 God will wipe away every tear
Revelation 22:3-5 See God’s face, the Lord will shine on us
Matthew 22:29-32 Marriage, neither marry nor be given in marriage
Revelation 4 -Throne, Gemstones, Worship, Lightening, Living Creatures
Revelation 21:1-7 New Heaven and a new Earth, Holy City
Revelation 21:12-22 Beautiful, strong city (see today's feature picture)
Isaiah 65:17-19 Place of happiness with much joy, no weeping or crying
Sounds pretty amazing! No more sin, suffering, pain or darkness. These things are replaced with happiness, joy, worship, light and a life with God, no longer separated from him.
I’m reminded of these lyrics from a childhood Sunday School song: “Heaven is a wonderful place, filled with God’s glory and grace. I want to see Jesus face, heaven is a wonderful place."
