Worthy

From Able: A 10-Day Devotional

Have you ever stopped for a second to think about what heaven will really be like?

The world has painted a pretty horrible picture of heaven. Cartoons portray marshmallow clouds,  little fairies playing harps, people floating around smiling. There’s so much questioning and confusion in our world, it’s easy for people to believe anything.

As Christians we don’t know what to expect out of heaven, but the Bible does give us some clear indications of what our lives will look like.

But in anticipating the joys of heaven — perhaps reuniting with loved ones or experiencing renewed bodies — we must focus on what the Bible shows is most important and true.

The lyrics of the song “Worthy” paint an incredible picture of what heaven will be like when God’s chosen people, together in unity, proclaim Jesus as King! With one voice, every creature in heaven and on Earth will proclaim that Jesus is Lord!

As the chorus says, “Blessing, Honor, Glory, Power, Be unto our God forever!”

The Bible says, “God inhabits the praises of his people” (Psalm 22:3). This is a promise that praising, blessing, and ministering to God guarantees His presence with you!

At some point today, get a glimpse of what it will feel like to have no agenda other than praising and blessing the name of Jesus.
Heaven is not going to be awesome because of what we do or what we experience there. Heaven is going to be awesome because Jesus is there!
