Show Them…
We are commanded by Jesus to preach the gospel and to preach the kingdom of heaven. But we are not only to speak about heaven, we must also show heaven.
Heaven is to be in you, God is in you, that’s the difference. If heaven wasn’t in us, then we could just talk about heaven and be fine. The point is, heaven is in us, God is in us, so it’s not enough to just talk about Him, we have to show Him.
Paul was taken up to heaven. He said it wasn’t permitted to say the things he saw; it was too much. But he could show it, and he did show it. He kept rejoicing; he kept persevering because of heaven. He showed them the reality of it.
Well, if you’re born again, you’re born from heaven and you need to do the same thing Paul did. You need to show heaven. Don’t just talk about life in heaven, you show them the reality of a heavenly life now.
You see, heaven is too good to only be spoken about. So don’t just talk about it, put your life where your mouth is. Show them.
Give praise to the Lord, proclaim his name; make known among the nations what he has done. Sing to him, sing praise to him; tell of all his wonderful acts. Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice. Psalm 105:1-3
Today, share heaven with those who need to find it – but don’t just talk about it – show them heaven!
Walk daily with God at your side!
Love always,
Ed
