November 11, 2022 – Are You Excited for Heaven?
Sermon: 1369 How to Make the Rest of Your Life the Best of Your Life, Part 1
Concerpt: Many people ask what Heaven is going to be like. Are we going to have beds? Are we going to sleep? Will we eat? How old will we be? What will we do? I don’t know the answers to those questions, but that doesn’t bother me.
Pray Over This
“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ.”

Many people ask what Heaven is going to be like. Are we going to have beds? Are we going to sleep? Will we eat? How old will we be? What will we do? I don’t know the answers to those questions, but that doesn’t bother me.
For 1 John 3:2 says, “It has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.” You don't have to know. Let me tell you what Heaven is going to be like. It’s going to be the presence of all that is good and the absence of all that is evil.
Now, if that doesn’t satisfy you, let me give you something else. Heaven is going to be all that the loving heart of God can conceive, and the omnipotent hand of God can prepare. That is what Heaven is going to be. It’s a present place; it’s a perfect place; and it’s a purposeful place.
- What questions about Heaven have you wrestled with?
- What does it look like to hold to the certainty of Heaven without knowing exactly what it will be like?
Practice This
Cast on the Lord your fears and questions about death and Heaven. Ask Him to grow your trust in Him, believing His Word even if you don’t have all the answers.
