Revelation 21:22 – “The city has no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it, FOR the glory of GOD brightens it and the Lamb is the lamp of it.”

Today, my reading took me to Isaiah 60 and Revelation 21. The Holy Spirit used similar verbiage in those chapters to speak to my heart. He caused me to focus on the New Jerusalem and the Wonder of God.

Isaiah 60:19 – “The sun shall be no more your light by day; neither for brightness shall the moon give light to you; for the LORD shall be to you an everlasting light, and the days of your mourning shall be ended.”

Revelation 21:22 – “The city has no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it, for the glory of GOD brightens it, and the Lamb is the lamp of it.”

As I read those passages, the wonder of heaven became clearer than I had previously imagined.  It makes me homesick for heaven.  However, what the Lord spoke to my heart was something for right now.

When we enter the Light of God, who is light, that light dispels everything that weighs us down and hinders our progress.  That light lifts burdens and heals (body, soul, and spirit).  That light sets us free totally.

Isaiah 60:19 tells us of a healing we all need in some area of our lives.  “…and the days of your mourning shall be ended.”

The joy of God and the imagery of heaven turn tears into joy.  How can I not rejoice when I truly see heaven, my eternal destiny?  No matter what I’m weeping over, seeing His light and the awesomeness of heaven deposits joy without measure.

This morning, heaven is on my mind.  I think of that great host of those I love who have gone before me, and I imagine their exquisite exuberant joy right now, and tears of joy fill my heart.   One Day, we will see that too.   One Day, we will hear the sounds, see the sights, and feel the feeling they now know.

Heaven makes my heart rejoice. Jesus is coming, and I believe very soon.  Let heaven fill your heart.  It will do what nothing else can.   One Day, One Day Soon!

Let Heaven fill your heart here and now.  Have a great day in Jesus!
