Are we there yet?!!
“After this I heard what seemed to be the loud
voice of a great multitude in heaven, crying out, “Hallelujah! Salvation and
glory and power belong to our God! Then I heard what seemed to be the
voice of a great multitude, like the roar of many waters and like the sound of
mighty peals of thunder, crying out, “Hallelujah!
For the Lord
our God
the Almighty reigns! Then I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white
horse! The one sitting on it is called Faithful and True, and in righteousness
he judges and makes war. His eyes are like a flame of fire, and on his head are
many diadems, and he has a name written that no one knows but himself. He is
clothed in a robe dipped in blood, and the name by which he is called is
The Word of God. Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the
first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and the sea was no more. And
I 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 the
throne saying, “Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. He will
dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be
with them as their God. He will wipe away every tear from their eyes,
and death shall be no more, neither shall there be mourning, nor crying, nor
pain anymore, for the former things have passed away.” (Revelation 19-21)Christmas (modern speech for the incarnation of God in the person of Jesus) is why we anticipate this most glorious day. In fact reading of this event should fill us with the excitement that a kid feels anticipating Christmas day.
