DCLM Daily Manna 4 October 2022 : Heaven Is Real

--> Note :- Are you born again? You are never going to win the battle against the devil if you are not born again. I plead with you to give your life to Jesus today because the longer you stay in sin and remain unsaved, the more hardened your nature becomes against the purpose and the way God wants you to be for His purpose. To give your life to Jesus now, say this prayer: “Father, I come to You in the name of Jesus. I know that I am a sinner and I cannot save myself but Jesus died for me and shed His blood that I might be saved. Today, I accept Jesus as my Lord and Saviour. Jesus, I ask You to come into my heart, be my Lord, wash me with Your blood and make me whole. I believe with my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus is my Lord. Thank You for saving me. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.” I congratulate you and welcome you to the family of God if you have sincerely said that prayer. Now you are fit to discover, know and walk in your destiny.

TOPIC: Heaven Is Real 

TEXT: John 14:1-6 (KJV)

1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

2 In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

5 Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

KEY VERSE: “In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you” (John 14:2).

MESSAGE:

Atheists in Britain carried out a bus campaign in January 2009. The bus campaign message reads: “There is probably no God. Now stop worrying and enjoy your life.” Also, in a newspaper interview before he died, Stephen Hawking, the physicist and cosmologist, denied the existence of heaven, saying it is a ‘fairy story’. He said, “I regard the brain as a computer which will stop working when the components fail. There is no heaven or afterlife for broken down computers; that is a fairy story for people afraid of the dark”.

Jesus confirmed the existence of heaven in our text. As the day of His departure drew close, the anxiety of His followers increased. Will this be the end of Christ? How would they cope in the face of the coming persecution? Jesus, therefore, comforted them by promising to return again after preparing eternal mansions in heaven for them. In answer to Thomas’ question about not knowing where He was going, Jesus emphasised that He is the Way, the Truth and the Life, and no man can enter into heaven except through Him.

Jesus will not talk about heaven if it does not exist. He is the Truth personified. Believers should not be carried away by what science says, or what atheists, who do not believe in the existence of God, assert. The finite man cannot understand the infinite God. The wisdom of this world will be turned to foolishness eventually. Heaven is real, so is hell and the lake of fire. It is a prepared place for prepared people. It is the permanent abode of the redeemed, while hell is prepared for the devil and his angels (Matthew 25:34, 41).

Whatever believers are passing through right now is only temporal. The road to heaven is narrow and straight, dotted with so many trials and temptations. But Christ promised to wipe away our tears and grant us eternal rest in heaven.

THOUGHT FOR THE DAY:
Heaven and hell are not fictions.

THE BIBLE IN ONE YEAR:
Luke 5-6
