Best Thing of Heaven

Best Thing of Heaven

What will be the best thing about Heaven? Will it be worship? Rest? Satisfaction? Seeing Loved ones? I’m convinced the more I read scripture that the best thing about Heaven will be dwelling with Jesus. Nearly every verse we know of Heaven mentions this fact.

 

"If I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself, THAT WHERE I AM, THERE YOU MAY BE ALSO” (Jn. 14:3)

 

"And He said to him, “Truly I say to you, today you shall BE WITH ME in Paradise.” (Lk. 23:43)

 

"Then we who are alive and remain will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air, and so we shall ALWAYS BE WITH THE LORD” (1 Thess. 4:17)

 

"we are of good courage, I say, and prefer rather to be absent from the body and to be AT HOME WITH THE LORD” (2 Cor. 5:8)

 

"But I am hard-pressed from both directions, having the desire to depart and BE WITH CHIRST, for that is very much better” (Phil. 1:23)

 

"For God has not destined us for wrath, but for obtaining salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ, who died for us, so that whether we are awake or asleep, WE WILL LIVE TOGETHER WITH HIM." (1 Thess 5:9-10)

 

What a day that will be when my Jesus I shall see!
