New Heaven and Earth

While many people are familiar with the frightening events described in Revelation, few have come to realize what God has planned following the destruction of the Beast, The False Prophet, Satan & Their armies.

NKJV 25-65:17 Isaiah

“Now I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away. Also there was no more sea. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.” Then He who sat on the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” And He said to me, “Write, for these words are true and faithful.” And He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God and he shall be My son. But the cowardly, unbelieving, abominable, murderers, sexually immoral, sorcerers, idolaters, and all liars shall have their part in the lake which burns with fire and brimstone, which is the second death.” Then one of the seven angels who had the seven bowls filled with the seven last plagues came to me and talked with me, saying, “Come, I will show you the bride, the Lamb’s wife.” And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the great city, the holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God, having the glory of God. Her light was like a most precious stone, like a jasper stone, clear as crystal. Also she had a great and high wall with twelve gates, and twelve angels at the gates, and names written on them, which are the names of the twelve tribes of the children of Israel: three gates on the east, three gates on the north, three gates on the south, and three gates on the west. Now the wall of the city had twelve foundations, and on them were the names of the twelve apostles of the Lamb. And he who talked with me had a gold reed to measure the city, its gates, and its wall. The city is laid out as a square; its length is as great as its breadth. And he measured the city with the reed: twelve thousand furlongs. Its length, breadth, and height are equal. Then he measured its wall: one hundred and forty-four cubits, according to the measure of a man, that is, of an angel. The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass. The foundations of the wall of the city were adorned with all kinds of precious stones: the first foundation was jasper, the second sapphire, the third chalcedony, the fourth emerald, the fifth sardonyx, the sixth sardius, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, and the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls: each individual gate was of one pearl. And the street of the city was pure gold, like transparent glass. But I saw no temple in it, for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple. The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light. And the nations of those who are saved shall walk in its light, and the kings of the earth bring their glory and honor into it. Its gates shall not be shut at all by day (there shall be no night there). And they shall bring the glory and the honor of the nations into it. But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.”

NKJV 27-21:1 Revelation

“And he showed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding from the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the middle of its street, and on either side of the river, was the tree of life, which bore twelve fruits, each tree yielding its fruit every month. The leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face, and His name shall be on their foreheads. There shall be no night there: They need no lamp nor light of the sun, for the Lord God gives them light. And they shall reign forever and ever. Then he said to me, “These words are faithful and true.” And the Lord God of the holy prophets sent His angel to show His servants the things which must shortly take place. “Behold, I am coming quickly! Blessed is he who keeps the words of the prophecy of this book.” Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God.” And he said to me, “Do not seal the words of the prophecy of this book, for the time is at hand. He who is unjust, let him be unjust still; he who is filthy, let him be filthy still; he who is righteous, let him be righteous still; he who is holy, let him be holy still.” “And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.” Blessed are those who do His commandments, that they may have the right to the tree of life, and may enter through the gates into the city. But outside are dogs and sorcerers and sexually immoral and murderers and idolaters, and whoever loves and practices a lie. “I, Jesus, have sent My angel to testify to you these things in the churches. I am the Root and the Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star.” And the Spirit and the bride say, “Come!” And let him who hears say, “Come!” And let him who thirsts come. Whoever desires, let him take the water of life freely.”

NKJV 17-22:1 Revelation

NEW HEAVEN, NEW EARTH

** NO MORE SEA, OPENING UP HUGE AMOUNTS OF INHABITABLE LANDS. THE EARTH IS NOW 2/3 SEA.

** WE WILL RETURN TO GOD’S ORIGINAL PLAN TO “BE FRUITFUL AND MULTIPLY.” I BELIEVE EVENTUALLY, WE WILL INHABIT ALL THE PLANETS IN THE UNIVERSE. HE MADE THEM FOR A REASON….

** WE WILL BE AWARDED LAND AND WILL RULE OVER THOSE BORN ON THAT LAND.

** WE WILL HAVE CHILDREN TO REPLENISH THE EARTH. WE ARE NOW IN ‘INCORRUPTIBLE BODIES,’ MEANING THEY CANNOT SIN AND WILL NOT DIE.

** WE WILL ONCE AGAIN HAVE FULL USE OF OUR MINDS. CURRENTLY, ONLY A FRACTION OF OUR MIND IS USED. THEREFORE, WE WILL BE A SUPER-INTELLIGENT PEOPLE.

** COSMIC TIME WILL BE TURNED INTO ETERNITY.

** NEW JERUSALEM WILL BE GOD’S HEADQUARTERS. THE CITY SPANS 1500 SQUARE MILES, AND THE SAINTS ARE ALLOWED TO ENTER THE CITY AND SEE GOD AND JESUS. MANY WILL LIVE THERE WORKING IN LEADERSHIP UNDER CHRIST. OTHERS WILL INHABIT THE LANDS OUTSIDE AND BRING THEIR GLORY INTO THE TEMPLE.

** NO REMEMBRANCE OF FORMER TIMES AS THE CURRENT GOOD TIMES WILL OVERSHADOW THEM. NO PAIN, DEATH, TEARS, SORROW, UNHAPPINESS, LONELINESS, ETC.

***NO MORE CORRUPTION OF ANY KIND. TREES, PLANT-LIFE, ANIMALS, RIVERS, INCLUDED.

***I BELIEVE ALL HOUSES WILL BE BUILT FOR FELLOWSHIP AND PEOPLE WILL GATHER DAILY TO CELEBRATE LIFE AND GOD.

MOTIVATION!!

Little Tommy( who was Jewish), was doing very badly in math. His parents had tried everything: tutors, extra books, advanced calculators, etc. They had tried everything they could think of. Finally, in a last ditch effort, they took Tommy down to the local Catholic school and enrolled him there.

After the first day, little Tommy came home with a very serious look on his face. He didn’t even kiss his mother hello. Instead, he went immediately to his room and started studying. Books and papers were spread out all over the room and little Tommy was hard at work on his math homework.

His mother was amazed. She called him down to dinner and to her shock, the minute he was finished eating he marched back up to his room—without a word to anyone. Instantly he was back to hitting the books as hard as before.

This went on for some time, day after day, while the mother tried to understand what had made all the difference. Finally, little Tommy brought home his report card. He quietly laid it on the table and went up to his room to study his day’s lessons.

With great trepidation, his mom looked at the report card and to her surprise, Tommy had gotten an ‘A’ in math. She could no longer hold her curiosity. She went to his room and said, “Son, What was it? Was it the nuns?”

Little Tommy looked at her and shook his head. “No”, he answered.

“Well, then”, she replied, “was it the books, the discipline, the structure, the uniforms? WHHHHAAAAATTTT was it?????”

Tommy looked up at her and said, “Well, on the first day of school, when I saw that guy nailed to the plus sign, I knew they weren’t fooling around.”

Philippians 4:13-“I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.”

As the drought continued for what seemed an eternity, a small community of mid-west farmers were in a quandary as to what to do next. The rain was important not only to keep their crops healthy, but to sustain the townspeople’s very way of living.

As the problem became more urgent, the local church felt it was time to get involved and called a prayer meeting to ask for rain. In what seemed a vague remembrance of a Native American ritual, the people began to arrive. The pastor, on his arrival, watched as the congregation continued to file in. He slowly made his way to the front to officially begin the meeting.

Everyone was taking the opportunity to visit across the aisles to socialize with close friends. The pastor’s thoughts, when he reached the front, were on quieting those present and starting the meeting. As he began to ask for quiet, his eyes scanned the crowd and he took note of an eleven-year-old girl sitting in the front row.

Her face was beaming with excitement and she quietly sat in her place. Next to her, poised and ready for use, was a bright red umbrella. The beauty and innocence of the girl made the pastor smile as he realized the faith she possessed. No one else in the congregation had brought an umbrella.

They had all come to pray for rain, but she had come expecting God to answer with the needed rain.

21 SECRETS TO ABUNDANCE

God is more than a God of Salvation. He is a God of supply. III John 1:2- “Beloved, I wish above all that you prosper and be in health even as your soul prospers.”

1. A crisis is a signal for me to learn, not lose.

2. It is not a sin to have a need in my life.

3. My need is an indication to change something in my life.

4. God will always vary His methods of supply.

5. There is a special place for my blessing and supply.

6. God will sometimes remove my visible sources of supply to maintain my dependency upon Him.

7. God sometimes uses the illogical and the unlikely to supply my needs.

8. I must respect abundance enough to ask for it before it will come to me.

9. My faith will release the moment my mind focuses on a specific target.

10. My God will never ask me for something I do not have.

11. I already possess abundance in the form of a seed.

12. My supply for tomorrow can start with whatever is in my hand today.

13. God is aware of my present level of need.

14. Everyone has something to give.

15. The world’s conditions do not control the Christian’s supply.

16. My expectations affect my supply.

17. My consecutive giving creates a consecutive harvest.

18. God expects me to give with an expectation to receive.

19. My supply depends upon what I do.

20. When I let go of what is in my hand, God will let go of what is in His hand.

A Study into The Temporary and The Eternal

By Reydon Stanford

In Genesis 3, we see that Adam and Eve did in fact, eat of the fruit bringing the curse of ‘Sin and Death,’ upon not only themselves…but all of creation on planet Earth.  They were then forced out of the Garden of Eden (in the Eternal Time Zone), and forced to struggle upon a dying Earth with dying bodies, creating the age of Earth Time Zone. Because of this transgression…a curse was brought upon the Earth and all mankind.  They would live temporarily with a sinful nature, (selfish, evil and destructive), and would be subjected to suffering as a result.  HOWEVER,…and thankfully, God instituted a plan of salvation for the Earth and for mankind…in order to return the Earth and Mankind back into Eternity after a period of time.
