New Earth - Home!

For Friday, November 4, 2022:

Revelation 21:6-7 NLT: (The one sitting on the throne said,) “It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega—the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life. All who are victorious will inherit all these blessings, and I will be their God, and they will be my children.”

In this scripture, creation construction is complete. (At least for now…) The New Heaven and the New Earth are finished! The New Earth is the eternal residence for all who claim Jesus as Lord and Master of their lives. This perfect world is God’s gift to believers. We will be adopted into the Holy Family. The Lord will be our God and we will be his children, and that’s Good News!

God’s desire is that none would perish. His desire is that everyone would repent and return to Him. God wants to live among his people, and it will finally happen just like that on the New Earth. I’m looking forward to the New Earth with joyful anticipation, and you should too!

God will make all things new!
