6. This morning I want you to
Know something,
Feel something and
Do something about
Heaven
7. Since you have been raised to
new life with Christ, set your
sights on the realities of
heaven, where Christ sits in the
place of honor at God’s right
hand. Think about the things of
heaven, not the things of earth.
Col 3:1-2
8. Then came one of the seven angels
who had the seven bowls full of the
seven last plagues and spoke to me,
saying, “Come, I will show you the
Bride, the wife of the Lamb.” And he
carried me away in the Spirit to a
great, high mountain, and showed
me the holy city Jerusalem coming
down out of heaven from God,
having the glory of God, its radiance
like a most rare jewel, like a jasper,
clear as crystal.
9. It had a great, high wall, with twelve
gates, and at the gates twelve angels,
and on the gates the names of the
twelve tribes of the sons of Israel were
inscribed— on the east three gates, on
the north three gates, on the south
three gates, and on the west three
gates. And the wall of the city had
twelve foundations, and on them were
the twelve names of the twelve
apostles of the Lamb.
10. And I saw no temple in the city, for its
temple is the Lord God the Almighty
and the Lamb. And the city has no need
of sun or moon to shine on it, for the
glory of God gives it light, and its lamp
is the Lamb. By its light will the nations
walk, and the kings of the earth will
bring their glory into it, and its gates
will never be shut by day—and there
will be no night there.
11. They will bring into it the glory and the
honor of the nations. But nothing
unclean will ever enter it, nor anyone
who does what is detestable or false,
but only those who are written in the
Lamb's book of life.
12. Then the angel showed me the river of
the water of life, bright as crystal,
flowing from the throne of God and of
the Lamb through the middle of the
street of the city; also, on either side of
the river, the tree of life with its twelve
kinds of fruit, yielding its fruit each
month. The leaves of the tree were for
the healing of the nations.
13. No longer will there be anything
accursed, but the throne of God and of
the Lamb will be in it, and his servants
will worship him. They will see his face,
and his name will be on their
foreheads. And night will be no more.
They will need no light of lamp or sun,
for the Lord God will be their light, and
they will reign forever and ever.
Revelation 21:9 - 22:5(NIV)
14. This morning I want you to
Know something,
Feel something and
Do something about
Heaven
15. I want you to Know Heaven is for Real.
“No eye has seen, what no ear has
heard, and what no human mind
has conceived”— the things God
has prepared for those who love
him— these are the things God has
revealed to us by his Spirit.”
1 Corinthians 2:9-10
16. I want you to Know Heaven is for Real.
“If you find God with ease, perhaps
it is not God you have found.”
Thomas Merton
17. Our minds simply cannot grasp the
Beauty and Glory of God’s Kingdom.
18. I want you to FEEL
You were made for Heaven
Heaven is that remote music
we are born remembering.
CS Lewis
21. “If I find in myself a desire
which no experience in this
world can satisfy, the most
probable explanation is that I
was made for another world.”
C. S. Lewis
22. I want you to live less out of HABIT
and more out of INTENT
23. There are no ORDINARY PEOPLE
There are no ordinary people. You
have never talked to a mere mortal. It
is immortals whom we joke with,
work with, marry, snub, and exploit
24. What You Believe, You Become
I press on toward the goal to win
the prize for which God has called
me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
Phil 3:14
25. Impact this World in Light of the Next
In the same way, let your light
shine before others, that they
may see your good deeds and
glorify your Father in heaven.
Matt 5:16
26. Impact this World in Light of the Next
“I have but one candle of life to
burn, and I would rather burn it out
in a land filled with darkness than
in a land flooded with light”John Falconer
