Where is the heaven ?

This is why I have the kingdom in your favor, as my Father has disposed in my favor. Luke 22:29

Many people asked : "Where is the heaven ?" The scriptures do not tell us where paradise is. Some students have tried to gather some scriptures and say that paradise is north. They quote Psalm 48: 3, "She is beautiful, the hill that rejoices all the earth, Mount Zion, on the north side is the city of the great king." The magnetic needle indicates the north. Maybe the heavenly city is in the north. We do not know. But no matter where the sky is, it will be where Christ is.

Many people ask : "Do you believe that paradise is a literal place ?" Yes ! Jesus said : "I will prepare you for a place." The Bible teaches that Enoch and Elijah rode hand-to-hand in a place as real as Los Angeles, London or Algiers ! The Bible also teaches that the sky will be a place of beauty. It is described in the Bible as "a building of God" - "a city" - "a better country" - "an inheritance" - "a glory".

The Bible also states that heaven will be a place of great understanding and knowledge of things we have never learned here.

Prayer for the day

Living Lord Jesus, knowing that you have prepared a place for me in heaven brings comfort and delight to my soul !
