So, yesterday we learned that we are not citizens of Earth, but we are citizens of Heaven. To an inheritance that is imperishable, undefiled, and unfading, kept in heaven for you, 1 Peter 1:4. We are to have things in heaven that are only from God and God can't wait to give them to you. So, because of that, we know that we are God's and that He has plan for us as it says in Jeremiah 29:11 which says, 11 For I know the plans I have for you, declares the Lord, plans for welfare and not for evil, to give you a future and a hope. God has prepared things we cannot fathom for us and this verse reminds us of that. That is just what he will give us on earth, what more will God prepare for us in heaven.
In my Father's house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I go to prepare a place for you? John 14:2 ESV. God has prepared a place for us in heaven. I can only imagine that far better than we can fathom. For we know that if the tent that is our earthly home is destroyed, we have a building from God, a house not made with hands, eternal in the heavens. 2 Corinthians 5:1 ESV. This verse lets us know that this house was made by God, not by hands. So, this gets me think about how awesome it will be this house that God has for us.
So, in heaven, we know that there will be many houses for each one of us that he has called his possession. But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light. 1 Peter 2:9 ESV.
As I wrote this, I got this and that is that if we are citizens of anywhere people always need to a place to live. so I started with that which we can fathom a place to live rather than things we cannot fathom.
Take time today to think about what the houses in heaven will look like and then throw all that you thought of and then pray to God to give Insite into what He has to say about the house He has for you in heaven. Only God knows what the house will look like and what He has for you.
