The Lord’s Prayer - “As It Is In Heaven”

When we experience Heaven on earth, the world watches and they want it too. That’s the way God has designed us. We fund our peace and purpose in experiencing Him right here on earth.

The Lord’s Prayer - “As It Is In Heaven”

I’ve talked to a lot of people who want to know what Heaven is like. I have to say, quite honestly, that we don’t know a lot about Heaven. That’s pretty remarkable when you drop your think about it. It’s described several times in the Bible.

I think the issue isn’t that it never talked about or even described. The problem is that we all understand that the Bible is describing something that is indescribable. In other words, it’s telling us what Heaven is LIKE. It can only explain it to us in terms that we can understand. I think that’s when we arrive there, we will all think, “I never could have imagined that kind of beauty or that much glory.”

It will overwhelm us yet we were created to be there. Heaven is our home and we are all just travelers here. We are just passing through trapped in these physical bodies for a little while.

How can you imagine the unimaginable? What does an infinite color pallet look like? What does an infinite musical scale with myriads of angels sound like when it’s sung? More importantly, how do I do that on earth as it is in heaven?

The best answer is to sing with the voice I have, enjoy the beauty that is before me and help others to do the same. Our job is to bring God’s Kingdom to earth for the time that we are here. That’s how others learn to love God with us.

When we experience Heaven on earth, the world watches and they want it too. That’s the way God has designed us. We fund our peace and purpose in experiencing Him right here on earth.

Philippians 3:20-21

“For our citizenship is in heaven, from which also we eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; who will transform the body of our humble state into conformity with the body of His glory, by the exertion of the power that He has even to subject all things to Himself.”
