WE CAN ONLY IMAGINE


Revelations 7:9-12
9 After these things I looked, and behold, a great multitude which no one could count, from every nation and all tribes and peoples and tongues, standing before the throne and before the Lamb, clothed in white robes, and palm branches were in their hands; 10 and they cry out with a loud voice, saying, “Salvation to our God who sits on the throne, and to the Lamb.” 11 And all the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures; and they fell on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying,“Amen, blessing and glory and wisdom and thanksgiving and honor and power and might, be to our God forever and ever. Amen.”
Forever and ever!

(Octavius Winslow, "This God is Our God")

"For this God is our God forever and ever; He
will be our guide even to the end." Psalm 48:14

Oh, that blissful word forever!
Forever and ever in heaven!
Forever and ever associated with saints and angels!
Forever and ever gazing on the beauty of Jesus!
Forever and ever basking in the sunshine of His glory!
Forever and ever chanting the song of the Lamb!
Forever and ever swimming in the ocean of God's love!
Forever and ever growing in knowledge and holiness and glory!
Forever and ever with the Lord!


"For this God is our God forever and ever; He
will be our guide even to the end." Psalm 48:14

Home!

Yes, home! And what a home for us
to return to and abide in forever!
A home prepared before the foundation of the world.
A home in the many mansions.
A home nearest the throne and heart of God.
A home whose peace shall never be
broken by the sound of war or tempest.
A home whose brightness shall never be
overcast by the remotest shadow of a cloud.

How solacing to the weary spirit to think of
a resting place so near to God, and that resting
place our Father's house where we shall hunger
no more, neither thirst any more, where the sun
shall not scorch us, nor any heat, where the
Lamb that is in the midst of the throne shall
feed us and lead us to living fountains of
waters, and God Himself shall wipe away
all tears from our eyes! We shall see him, beloved-- not abhorred, not despised
and rejected,
but worshipped,
honored,
crowned,
exalted,
served by flaming spirits,
and worshipped by cherubim and seraphim.

"We shall see him as he is."

Be strong as we wait apon our Lord, spread the word of the Glory of the God,
Spread the word of the Glory that can be shared with those who put their Faith in
the Lamb of God. Heaven is but a whisper away, no one knows when there time will be, when they leave this world, today is the day for salvation!

So great are the things God has planned for those who love Him. Joys unspeakable, sights unforeseeable, comforts unknown, blessings, as yet, undiscovered. Maranatha
