Enter Heaven!
The (Heavenly) city...the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light. And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light.
Revelation 21:23-24 - NKJV
One Sunday I was preaching on the ascension of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I had received in prayer the basics of the message but during the worship part of the service the Lord added to it. He directed me to speak about Christ's entrance into Heaven. Boy, did I get excited preaching about that glorious event! Joh.20:17
Our Lord Jesus has opened Heaven's gates and prepared a place in Heaven for us. As a result, we know where we're going when we die! As believers our names are registered in Heaven. No one else on earth but the one who has confessed Jesus as Lord has such assurance. The day you accepted Jesus as Lord you made sure your name was recorded permanently in the Lamb's Book of Life. When you get to the gates of Heaven your name will be found there and you will go through the gates because Jesus went through the gates. You'll enter the Heavenly City! Start to rejoice now in the glorious future that is before you! ("Entrance to Heaven" Bible study: Ps.118:19, Ps.24:7-10, Joh.14:2, Rev.21:27, Luk.10:20)
Before I came to Christ my mind was ill at ease. Secular education had left me thinking I originated from a monkey and death was the gate to a black hole. Thank God He eased my troubled mind! Jesus came into my life and His Spirit began to show me what God had done for me. God had created me and by Jesus He had opened Heaven for me so that it has become my eternal homeland! We're headed for the Heavenly City whose builder and maker is God! Heb.11:13-16
Rejoice that you're headed for Heaven!
