The word for today is - Awesome !

Good morning,

The word for today is - Awesome !

 

Do you know someone that is awesome? For the believers, it is or should be God! The Bible tells us, God is the one who created everything that is. Read Genesis 1:1,  In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.The definition of awesome is "inspiring awe,amazing, wonderful, and cool." God is so awesome, that He created the end also! God is so awesome that He created a new place for us to be with Him. The Scriptures tell us that heaven is where God has His throne. According to the Scriptures, heaven is the destination for the believers when we die. Now, that's amazing!   But ,what most believers do not realize is that heaven is not the final destination for those who believe in Jesus Christ.  In fact, the Bible tells us that God is going to build a new heaven and a new earth.The new earth will be a city known as the New Jerusalem that will be the ultimate destination for those who belong to the Lord. Now, this is inspiring ! Think about that for a second, a new earth? Wow,that is awesome! Ultimately, the final destination for believers will be a new heaven and a new earth. That's pretty cool! Read 2 Peter 3:13, Nevertheless we, according to his promise,look for new heavens and a new earth, wherein dwelleth righteousness. After the new heaven and new earth are created, all mankind will worship the Lord there as it tells us in Isaiah 66:22-23,"For as the new heavens and the new earth, which I will make,shall remain before me,"saith (declares) the Lord, so shall your seed and your name remain. And it shall come to pass, that from one new moon to another and from one sabbath to another, shall all flesh come to worship before me, saith the Lord." "All mankind will come and bow down before me," says the Lord. Now, that's wonderful! The bible explains that Multitudes of people who sleep in the dust of the earth will awake. Read Daniel 12:2-3,And many of them that sleep in the dust of the earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and some to shame and everlasting contempt. And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament; and they that turn many to righteousness, as the stars for ever and ever.The final destination for those that belong to Jesus,without a doubt will be there on that day to see Him. Read Revelation 21:1-3, 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. And I John saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, prepared as a bride adorned (beautifully dressed) for her husband. And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, "Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell (live) with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them and be their God." Is there anything more valuable than eternal life in heaven and to be with our Father? No ! We the believers have a relationship with God through Jesus Christ. How awesome is that? Now, that's love! Thank you Lord for your word. Amen !
