Heaven is Real

Heaven is real, magnificent, no pain or sorrow or regret. All is perfect and beautiful. It is the heavenly home for believers in Jesus Christ.

Luke 10:20 Rejoice because your names are written in heaven. Stephen looked up into heaven and saw the glory of God and Jesus standing on the right hand of God Acts 7:55.

Luke 23:43 Jesus said to the thief hanging on the cross who believed in Him; today you will see Me in heaven. When we take our last breath we immediately go to heaven. 2 Corinthians 5:1 for we know that if our earthly house--body--dies, we have a new body not made with earthly hands but eternal in the heavens. 

Revelation 5:11 and John beheld  and heard the voice of many angels round about the throne. Revelation 21:4 and God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes and there shall be no more death, sorrow, crying or pain. 6, There is a fountain of water of life in heaven. 21:11 heaven will have the glory of God. 21:21, and the twelve gates were of pearl and the streets of the city were as pure gold like transparent glass. The glory of God lit up the city all the time. 

My Poems About Healing Words

Piercing words Oh so sharp, 

like cruel arrows in the dark, 

cold stares that penetrate so deep, 

torment one awake or sleep, 

kind and gentle words help more, 

they bring healing to the very core, 

words can cheer or they can crush, 

don't be critical with your words and rush, 

be an uplifter and encourager each day, 

for people are helped by what you say, 

they will remember your words of hope 

that will bring strength and help them cope, 

the Lord will say my child I care, 

I will mend a broken heart of tare, 

I see each tear drop that falls, 

reach out to Me I will hear you call, 

Bible words will give you strength 

and help you go the extra length.

The Voice of God

John 12:29, The people that stood by and heard it said that it thundered. 

God's voice is powerful for God is all powerful. His voice awakens, convicts, stirs, calls and warns. Isaiah 30:30 through the powerful majestic voice of the Lord the Assyrians were defeated. John 11:43 Lazarus came forth out of the tomb when Jesus' voice was heard.

In Genesis 1:3 God said, let there be light. His voice created the earth, skies and mankind.  Psalm 29:4 The voice of the Lord is powerful and full of majesty. 5, The voice of the Lord breaks the cedars. 7, The voice of the Lord divides the flames of fire. 8, The voice of the Lord shakes the wilderness.

There are many voices in this world. Some are deceptive and tormenting. God's voice speaks truth and comfort. When we read the Bible the Holy Spirit can give direction and wisdom. God's voice speaks through Scripture telling us to believe in Him. Christ is the one who died on the cross and rose again. There is power in His shed blood for the forgiveness of our sins.  He is the true Shepherd of our souls. 

John 10:27, My sheep hear my voice and I know them and they follow me. Follow Christ and allow His Spirit to direct your paths. Let His voice speak through you telling others about Him. 

New Year, New Things

Isaiah 42:9 Behold, the former things are come to pass and NEW things do I declare, before they spring forth I tell you of them. 10, Sing unto the Lord a NEW song. Isaiah 48:6b Now I will tell you NEW things I have not mentioned before, secrets you have not yet heard (Life Application Study Bible). Isaiah 43:19 For I am about to do a brand-new thing. See, I have already begun, 2 Corinthians 5:17. What this means is that those who become Christians become NEW persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone, a NEW life has begun! 18, All this NEWNESS of life is from God who brought us back to himself through what Christ did. 

Each day is a NEW day with new peace and joy and new blessings from God. Know that this New year is a New beginning for you. The Holy Spirit will give you new revelation as you study the Word of God. You will have a new way of thinking and talking and seeing things through the eyes of God. Old attitudes and thinking have passed away so walk into the new things that God has prepared for you.  He has put a new song in your heart to praise Him. 

Rejoice

We are uplifted when we read Isaiah 61:10, for it talks about greatly rejoicing in the Lord, and our soul shall be joyful in our God for He has clothed us with the garments of salvation and covered us with the robe of righteousness. 

We can thank God for forgiving us of our sins and showing us how to live a life of integrity. 

Jeremiah 15:16 says that when we study the Bible, joy and rejoicing will fill our hearts. These are God's words of life that bring hope and encouragement. People go through challenges in life but let us all keep trusting Christ. 

Acts 5:41, and they departed from the presence of the council rejoicing that they were counted worthy to suffer for His name. These followers of Jesus were persecuted, but they had a deep joy and hope in their Savior.

In Acts 16:23, 25, Paul and Silas prayed and sang praises to God in that prison cell. 1 Peter 4:12, 13 beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you as though some strange thing happened unto you, but rejoice inasmuch as you are partakers of Christ's sufferings. Psalm 126:5, they that sow in tears shall reap in joy. 

Psalm 16:11, God will show us the path of life, for in His presence is fullness of joy, and at His right hand are pleasures forevermore.  

Romans 14:17 for the kingdom of God is not meat and drink but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Ghost.  

We can be thankful for the Holy Spirit who gives us peace, joy and much more.
