Heaven IV

Heaven IV

Thursday's Truth: What is heaven like?

There will be eternal praise-

Psalm 148:2,4 "Praise Him, all His angels; Praise Him, all His hosts!... Praise Him, you heavens of heavens, And you waters above the heavens!"

Revelation 5:8,9 Now when He had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each having a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints....And they sang a new song, saying: 'You are worthy to take the scroll, And to open its seals; For You were slain, And have redeemed us to God by Your blood Out of every tribe and tongue and people and nation...'"

There will be no hunger or thirst-

Revelation 7:16 "They shall neither hunger anymore nor thirst anymore; the sun shall not strike them, nor any heat;There will be no more tears- NO sorrow, no pain, no death."

Revelation 21:4 "And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away."

There will be no sun or moon - God illuminates heaven-

Revelation 21:23 "The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light."

It will be eternal-

Revelation 22:5 "There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever."Some day...heaven. -- Diane Hunt is the Director of Addiction Recovery Ministries at America's KESWICK
