In the not-too-distant future, the form of this presently sad world-system will come to its final end.
.
And for those who persevere through the coming, “Time of Jacob’s Trouble”, there will be the final reward of entering into the Promised Land, which God has prepared for all them that love Him.
.
And it’s a wonderful land, in which the everlasting hills will resound with the joyful noise of laughter and of singing, and of distant bells ringing in triumph of life-everlasting!

HOW SHOULD WE PREPARE?
.
And God is now asking His people to finish our prepa
ration for that wonderful Promised Paradise.
.
Yes, He is calling us out of Babylon, the world.
.
And He is wanting us to purify our hearts from all the Babylonish confusion which we once thought to be, “normal”, and instead, to renew our minds with the pure knowledge of goodness, which all the rest of His universe lives by.

THE SIGNS OF HEAVEN
.
At this hour, God is now revealing the signs, in the Sun, Moon, and Stars, as foretold in Luke…“And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;” Luke 21:25
.
Yes, God is now revealing that He has placed the stars in such a way, that the constellations reveal, not only the Gospel story of Salvation, but also reveal the much-needed instructions for God’s people at this present frightful hour!

WHAT OTHER REASON?
.
Now, beside the great heavenly message that these heavenly signs reveal, could there be another reason for God wanting us to study these heavenly constellations?

A HEAVENLY COMPASS
.
Is it possible that God wants His people to familiarize themselves with this heavenly message, so that they might know where these signs are, as a literal guiding lights through the literal wilderness?
.
In other words, could it be that some, or perhaps many Believers may be forced out of society, and into the wilderness?
.
And after becoming very familiar with these constellations and stars, might the Believers have to navigate themselves through the wilderness using them as signposts, to lead them safely through the wilderness?

PURE SPECULATION!
.
Well, this is all mere speculation! None of us know exactly what’s in store for us in the near future.
.
But one thing is for certain: those who are truly wise men today, will follow these stars just as surely as those wise men of old, followed that guiding star which led them to the first Advent of Jesus.
.
And today, God is still leading wise men to follow the wonderful message which God is now revealing to all who will listen and receive it!
.
.
.
.
.
A SIMPLE ENCOURAGEMENT!
.
And so, today’s devotional is just another encouragement to get on-board with these signs in the Sun, Moon, and Stars, and let Arcturus guide us to our desired Haven of Rest!
.
And who knows all the reasons that God has, for giving us these wonderful Signs Of Heaven!?

TODAY’S FEATURED HEAVENLY SIGN
.
.
.
ETERNITY NOT A PUFFY LITTLE CLOUD!
.
“Where there is no vision, the people perish” Proverbs 29:18
.
In the beginning, God placed our first parents in a beautiful garden. But as a result of sin, this world lost much of its beauty. The curse has marred, to a great extent, the pristine condition of nature.
.
But there are perhaps many, who are under the impression, that God’s redeemed will spend all eternity sitting on a puffy little cloud, strumming a harp. Nothing could be further from the truth! “And I saw a new heaven and a new earth:” Revelation 21:1
.
Do we really imagine that the same God who created that incredible garden for our first parents, would then put us through all this sorrow and hardships of this life, only to now stick us in some boring situation, for all eternity? Such people don’t know God nearly well enough.
.
The beauty and innocent joys of this present world, are just a faint reflection of what awaits all those who persevere on the upward pathway to that Celestial City of God.
.
.
.
.
.
LET’S CATCH A VISION OF THAT PROMISED LAND
.
.
So Signs Of Heaven encourages the reader to begin to get a vision of the New Heaven and New Earth, and begin to get excited about it. When we hear the cry of a new born baby, or the innocent laughter of little children. When we see a little forest creature having fun, or we enjoy a walk along the sand at the ocean, and hear the majestic roar of the crashing waves. These, and the many other joys of life were created by the One who has also gone to prepare an even more beautiful place for us to live. He knows our needs, and will provide a place: a far more wonderful home than this sin-cursed Earth!
.
And when we finally cross that river, and we stand together on the shores of that world to come, we will look in amazement at what He has in store for us there. And then we will know for certain, that “His mercy endures forever”, because “God is love”!
