Contagious Excitement for Heaven (January 26, 2021)

From the book “Seeing the Unseen: A Daily Dose of Eternal Perspective” by Randy Alcorn


Hello everyone welcome to our daily devotions and today we will be looking at John 14:2-3 as we go back to our devotion, “Seeing the Unseen a Daily Dose of Eternal Perspective.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and will take you to myself, that where I am you may be also. And you know the way to where I am going.”

John 14:2-3 (ESV)

Ang title ng ating devotion as we try to develop a a habit of being heavenly minded, having a perspective geared towards eternity ay “Contagious Excitement for Heaven”. Ang ganda nuh?

Sabi rito, “Like a bride’s dream of sharing a home with her groom, our love for heaven should overflow and be contagious.” Have you ever thought of that? I mean, have you ever stopped and wonder how it’d be like? Ako, iniisip ko minsan, ano kaya, pagdilat ng mata ko, kung panahon ko na, tapos pagpikit ng mata ko, pagmulat ko, wow it would be beautiful! It would be wonderful! and in as much as, sabing ganu’n ni Randy Alcorn, he was gasping, he was hearing the gasp of excitement when he was snorkeling for the first time. I believe mas maganda pa duon, mas glorious pa duon, ang ating mararamdaman as we anticipate waking up in eternity, in glory.

16 But as it is, they desire a better country, that is, a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared for them a city.

Hebrews 11:16 (ESV)

11 You make known to me the path of life;
    in your presence there is fullness of joy;
    at your right hand are pleasures forevermore.

Psalm 16:11 (ESV)
