When We See the Face of Our Lord. Jesus in Paradise
We wait with hearts burning with love for our Lord. With hearts aglow. We wait for Jesus Christ’s return.
Reflection. Our reward for being faithful followers of our Lord Jesus. We shall abide with Jesus Christ forever in Paradise.
Scripture Readings: Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him, even those who pierced Him, and all tribes of the Earth will wail on account of Him. Even so. Amen. (Revelation 1:7, ESV)
Eternal Life: Jesus promised eternal life to those who believe in Him. John 3:16 states, “For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
Have you ever considered that Almighty God may use modern digital technology to fulfil His prophecy? That “every eye will see Him.” Every person on Earth sees Jesus return. May be possible through the internet, satellites in space, and televisions in nearly every home.
The Earth is a great big place. The population has exploded to many billions of people. I am not trying to explain the miracle behind this wonder. I am only offering one possible way this may occur. It does not matter how. What truly matters is that it will happen. Our Lord Jesus will return. Every person will witness His return. I for one cannot wait.
Scripture Readings: Waiting for our blessed hope, the appearing of the glory of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ. (Titus 2:13, ESV)
For as the lightning comes from the east and shines as far as the west, so will be the coming of the Son of Man. (Matthew 24:27, ESV)
We live each day. As if it is the day of our Lord’s return. We keep our house spotlessly clean. So to speak. We do the best we can. To live every day. Holy and righteous before our Heavenly Father. The Holy Word of God is our favourite book. For it is God Himself! We reach for God’s Word first thing each morning. The Holy Word of God is our blessing. As we close our eyes in slumber.
Many times we are blessed with words of the Second Coming of our Lord Jesus. We study and meditate on the Holy Scriptures often during our day. Preparing ourselves always. Being ready for the return of our beloved Lord Jesus. Almighty God speed the return of our Redeemer. AMEN!
Our eager hearts dream of the day. When we see face-to-face our beloved Lord. We ponder on the day in which we shall indeed. Step into Paradise for the very first time. Jesus our Savior is there to greet us. Such love is in the eyes of our Lord Jesus. Such a loving and warm welcome we receive.
All God’s angels are singing God’s praises. Almighty God is also there. Our Father God’s arms are open wide to greet His beloved child. We fall on our knees before our Lord Jesus in Holy praise. For eternity we sing our worship. At the Holy Name of our Lord Jesus. In praise and worship, we sing to our Lord Jesus in Paradise for eternity.
Scripture Reading: Therefore God has highly exalted Him and bestowed on Him the Name that is above every name, so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in Heaven and on Earth and under the earth, and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. (Philippians 2:9–11, NIV)
All around us is LOVE. Love is far more than a feeling in Paradise. LOVE surrounds us. In life, we believe. In Paradise, we see completely. LOVE fills us with such peace. LOVE is the very air we breathe. LOVE overwhelms our whole being. The LOVE of Jesus is what lights Paradise. There is no need for the sun in the Kingdom of God. For our Lord Jesus and His love is the light in Paradise. The light of Jesus shines in every nook and cranny of Paradise. There is no place for darkness at all in the Kingdom of God. The LOVE of Jesus is all around us. The light of Jesus shines within and all around.
What do we feel when we are in the presence of Jesus? We feel pure and sweet LOVE. You and I feel a peace that encompasses our entire being. A peace that we know will last for eternity. We sing along with God’s angels praises for Jesus our Lord and our Redeemer. Our hearts are filled to overflowing with the LOVE of our Savior. We worship the Holy Name of our Messiah.
Praise the Holy Name of our Lord Jesus. “Hosanna to the Son of David!”
Scripture Reading: And the crowds that went before Him and that followed Him were shouting, “Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the Highest!” (Matthew 21:9, ESV)
The Kingdom of God is a place free of earthly troubles. Heaven is where we live with Almighty God and His Son for eternity. Paradise is our Home with Jesus the light of His love.
Regardless of religious beliefs, Paradise represents a state of fulfillment, where believers are free from struggles and hardships, living in harmony with God’s ways. (Bing, 13/07/2024)
For faithful Christians, it is so much more. For you and me it is the dwelling place of Almighty God and His beloved Son Jesus. Paradise, the Kingdom of God is our eternal Home. It is our final destination. The Home where Jesus’ light guides us each day. The Kingdom of God is our current Home here on Earth and our future Home with God. The Kingdom of God is our dwelling place both now and for eternity.
Conclusion. Yes, we look forward to the day of Christ's return.
With heart aglow and in faithful obedience. We treat every day. As it was the day of our Lord’s Second Coming. We walk in humble obedience to the Holy Law of Almighty God. We do not know the day of the Lord’s return. We live each day in holy and righteous obedience. To our Heavenly Father and His Holy Law. Every day we eagerly look forward to the return of our Lord Jesus.
Scripture Reading: For you know very well that the day of the Lord will come like a thief in the night. (1 Thessalonians 5:2, New International Version)
Today’s music video speaks of our love for Jesus. We look forward to the day when we see Jesus in Paradise.
I Can Only Imagine.
I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk by Your side
I can only imagine.What my eyes would see
When Your face is before me
I can only imagine.
