Heaven Bound?

Father, I desire that they also, whom You have given Me, be with Me where I am, so that they may see My glory which You have given Me, for You loved Me before the foundation of the world. John 17:24  

Jesus wants those who “belong” to Him to be with Him. Since He’s headed for Heaven shortly after this time in the scripture, it’s telling me that He wants His believers with Him—to see His glory in Heaven. Jesus knows that He is loved—even before the world was made. He wants to share His Father’s love with His believers by allowing them to see His glory in Heaven. What a privilege that will be! What an awesome sight.  Angels will be gathered around Him as He sits on His throne at the right hand of God the Father. What a glorious sight. Read Revelation 7:9-11 and Revelation 22. 

RSVP: Jesus is telling us that He wants His followers to see Him in all His glory. Can you imagine what that will be like? How will you respond to His message today? Will you be there in Heaven, too, and take as many people with you as possible?  

Prayer ~ Dear God, may Your Son be glorified…and bring You glory and honor! I will be honored to see His glory—to humbly bow before You and Jesus seated on Your Thrones in Heaven. May the desires of Jesus’ heart be fulfilled as He obediently delights in honoring You, Heavenly Father. Just as it is written in Psalms 37:4…Delight yourself in the LORD; and He will give you the desires of your heart.
