Go for the Gold: Heaven

August 31, 2024

The construction of its wall was of jasper; and the city was pure gold, like clear glass.
Revelation 21:18

We often speak of the golden streets of heaven (Revelation 21:21). But remember, the entire city will have a golden hue. The buildings are made from a kind of gold mined in heavenly mines, as it were, that shimmers with the sheer happiness that fills the place. The light of Christ will diffuse throughout the city, and our eyes will be transformed so we can see it all clearly and without discomfort.

Like athletes going for the gold, we should live in the light of that golden city. One day soon our trails and trials will end, our burdens will disappear, and our eyes will see our King in His golden splendor. The Bible says of heaven: “And there shall be no more curse, but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it, and His servants shall serve Him. They shall see His face” (Revelation 22:3-4).

As you go through this day, anticipate a better country, that is a heavenly one, for He has prepared for us a city (Hebrews 11:16).

Our dear ones wait, who passed from sight, over on the golden shore; but there with them we shall unite, over on the golden shore.
