Deeper Dive
My Father-In-Law recently led his small group through a long book study of what Heaven is REALLY like. Over the past couple of years Dad and I have had many conversations from Ezekiel, Isaiah and John’s Revelation of Heaven on the Island of Patmos. It’s crazy how accurate of a view we really have. It seems like God wants us to have a clear goal, view and idea of just how awesome Heaven is going to be. The boos is called
“Heaven” by Randy Alcorn!
The enemy is going to try and get our eyes off the thing we are running towards. The enemy will try to get us to chase other things and forget about the prize that Jesus has called us to concentrate on.
We have to ask ourselves:
What are we waiting on REALLY?
Chances are that some other ‘lesser’ thing has been put in front of us to strive for.
Since our Perception of Heaven Matters so greatly we need to do some work to tune up our knowledge of what Heaven will really be like!
These two steps will help us keep the goal of Heaven as our true anchor in life.
Extended Deeper Dive Reading this week:
Read all of John's Revelation
"Heaven" By Randy Alcorn
Deeper Dive Memory Work:
Galatians 6:8 Whoever sows to please their flesh, from the flesh will reap destruction; whoever sows to please the Spirit, from the Spirit will reap eternal life.
Philippians 3:13-14 Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead,
I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
2 Corinthians 4:17-18 For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal.
1 Peter 1:3-6 Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ! In his great mercy he has given us new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, and into an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade. This inheritance is kept in heaven for you, who through faith are shielded by God’s power until the coming of the salvation that is ready to be revealed in the last time. In all this you greatly rejoice, though now for a little while you may have had to suffer grief in all kinds of trials.
