In the presence of God, we shall find a joy that never ends. Everything we had ever worked for in life, in His Name, will be worth it. Though we may have gone through great trials and tribulations it will be for the benefit of our souls. In suffering, we find comfort and solace in the Lord. To come out victorious in Christ Jesus is a life worth spent. There is no salvation a part from the Lord and His faithful will have eternal life. When God Himself comes to dwell with His people He “shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.” In the Lord, all things are made new. We are born again in His great love on earth and will forever bask in His love in heaven. On earth, we can find the Lord in everything that is pure but in heaven everything gives Him glory and praise. The Lord will richly bless our lives as we seek Him and in heaven those blessings will never cease. If our hearts are in the Lord then we will one day live with Him in paradise. It is the “fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars” that will be shut out from the Kingdom of God. There inheritance is “the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone”. Blessed are those that come out of the world and into the presence of God.
The overcomers in Christ Jesus are richly blessed. These are they that were evil sinners but were washed clean through the Lamb of God. They accepted the Lord’s sacrifice on the cross and gave their hearts to Him. In this, God delivers mercy to their souls for they are meek and lowly of heart. Those that are made humble before Him are made great in His sight. His redemptive love flows through their veins and gives them hope. God’s forgiveness awakens them to walk in His ways. His mercy gives all Christians a will to succeed in all lives trials. Through pains they find comfort in the presence of God. Prayer lifts them up and delivers them peace. The Lord is there for everyone that calls upon His Name. He is ever so kind and gracious to all those that worship Him. In praise, I cry out to Him. In honor, I lift my hands high to heaven. In worship, I bow down in reverence before my King. Jesus is the King of all kings. He is the Lord of all lords. He is the ruler of my heart. I am so grateful Lord, that you have changed my life. Thank You for renewing my soul though I had been so far away from You. Thank You for giving me a chance to live again in true love. My soul no longer seeks what doesn’t last but what is eternal. I’ve learned that what the flesh desires comes to an end but what You offer is life eternal. I am forever blessed to call You Lord of my life. I love You.
Revelation 21:1-8 (KJV)
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.
2 And I John saw the holy city, new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
3 And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5 And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6 And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7 He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
8 But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.
