A wise person will prepare for
the inevitable. And the most inevitable thing in the world is our physical
passing. We were not designed to live in our earthly bodies forever; rather,
we are eternal beings with eternal purposes. With so sure an outcome, we
must spend time on earth preparing for our eternal future.
If you have placed your faith
in Jesus Christ, then you can be confident that you will spend eternity with
Him in heaven. A common question for believers, however, is “What will we do
when we get there?”
We will praise God.
Have you ever been passionately in love with someone—so much so that you
could hardly think about anything else? That is how we will view God in
heaven—as our ultimate source of love and companionship. Your relationship
with Him will far surpass any “feeling” of love you have ever experienced.
Far more than simply a feeling, it will be the outgrowth of a completely
perfect union with your heavenly Father.
We will shine for
God. In heaven, earthly limitations will be stripped away, allowing the
glory of God within every believer to shine forth in jubilant brilliance.
(Matthew 13:41-43)
We will reign with
God. Do you understand how valuable you are to God? Romans 8:16-17
declares that we are not only His children, but also co-heirs with Christ!
This means we will take part in all that the Father has set apart for His
Son. Heaven is a reality for which we must prepare. Make the most of your
eternity by getting ready for it today |
