Jesus is Preparing a Place

Series: Overcoming Discouragement

Summary

Pastor David McQueen speaks to how Jesus is currently preparing a place in heaven for those that are anticipating His return, to bring us home to be with Him for all eternity, John 14:1-7. But we should not think of eternity as boring by any stretch of the imagination. Heaven is reigning with the Lord and reigning means we will reign over, we will work, and that work will be significant, that of royalty. All that is fulfilling in work will be ours, and all that is problematic will be gone because the curse is removed. Heaven is home! Heaven is release from pain, death, and sadness. Heaven is all things renewed. It is reunion! 1 Corinthians 2:9 “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him.” How encouraging it is to know that Jesus is preparing a place for His believers and longing to come and bring us home!

But for now, we know that in this   we will never truly feel at home. (2 Cor. 5:1; 1 Pet. 2:11)

The enemy has robbed many of us as believers from our source of   in this life because he has convinced many if not most they don’t want to go to heaven.

And the reason is that people say it is  

There is no need to be worried by facetious people who try to make the Christian hope of “heaven” ridiculous by saying they do not want “to spend eternity playing harps.” The answer to such people is that if they cannot understand books written for   they should not talk about them. C.S. Lewis in  

Heaven is:

  •  (Rev. 21:4) 
  •   (Rev. 20:6)
  •  
  •  

We will be at home with Jesus - knowing Him as our hearts ache to know Him, unhindered by  

And we will enjoy the rewards of heaven that are the overflow of
