Psalms 40:4-11 Happy is the one who puts his trust in the Lord and keeps away from arrogant and deceitful people.
Say to the Lord: Here I am, my desire is to do Your will. Your Law is in my heart and I proclaim God’s faithfulness and His saving power to all the congregation. You Lord, will not withhold Your tender care for me, may Your love and truth forever keep me safe.
Psalms 40:12-17 Now Lord, we are poor and needy, troubles and misfortune assail us from every side and courage fails us. Let all those who seek our downfall be turned back in disgrace. Let all those who think they have got the upper hand, be confounded and put to shame. But let all who seek the truth be jubilant and rejoice in Your saving power, we will forever cry: All glory to the Lord!
Psalms 43:1-5 Uphold our cause, O God, give judgement for Your people against the godless nations, rescue us from those liars and evil men. For we look to You for refuge, why must we wait so long; oppressed by our foes?
Send out Your light and truth to guide us, then we will come to the holy Land, to the place of Your altar and we shall praise our Redeemer with gladsome songs. We will wait patiently for Your deliverance, our Lord and Saviour. Ref: REB.
Every person who desires to do the Lord’s will, all those who seek the truth, that is: every true Christian, will be delivered and guided into the holy Land, soon after the Lord’s Day of wrath has cleansed it. Jeremiah 31:8-9, Revelation 6:12-17, + , THEN: Ezekiel 34:11-16, Isaiah 35, Romans 9:24-26, +
Hi Keras
When Jesus returns, it’s not to settle down on earth
Jésus said
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
[2] In my Father’s house (in Heaven) are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
[3] And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.This simple text proves that the appointment will be in heaven in the house of the Father and with Jesus.
It is after the Millennium (after the Last Judgment and its execution) that God will make new heavens and a new earth where righteousness will dwell.
But the judgment shall sit, and they shall take away his dominion, to consume and to destroy it unto the end.
[27] And the kingdom and dominion, and the greatness of the kingdom under the whole heaven, shall be given to the people of the saints of the most High, whose kingdom is an everlasting kingdom, and all dominions shall serve and obey him. (Daniel 7: 26,27)God bless
No, Berean; John 14:1-2 says nothing about us going to live in heaven. The Kingdom of Jesus is over all the earth. Psalms 2:7-9
In that prophecy, Jesus is referring to the New Jerusalem, which as we are told in Revelation 21:1, will come to the earth after the Millennium. Only then do those found worthy get to live in it. Revelation 21:22-27
Isaiah 63:7-10 I shall tell of the Lord’s unfailing love and of the great things He has done for His people, in His compassion for Israel. He said: surely they are My people, they will not be false with Me. So, He; Himself delivered then from their troubles. He carried them through all the days of old. Yet, they rebelled and grieved His Holy Spirit, so He turned against them and allowed enemies to conquer them.
God chose and prepared a nation that would be His friends and a witness about Him to the world. Sadly, they rebelled against their Maker, so their punishment was exile. This was to be for a defined period, Ezekiel 4:4-6, Leviticus 26:18 and now we look forward to the gathering of all righteous believers into the Holy Land, be they actual descendants of Jacob, or grafted in as believing Christians. Romans 9:6-9, Galatians 3:26-29
Isaiah 63:11-14 When in exile, they recalled the days long past and how Moses shepherded his flock through the sea and into the Promised Land, by the power of the Holy spirit. Thus, You led Your people and thereby gained everlasting renown.
Isaiah 63:15-16 Look down from the heavens – Your lofty throne and see us, Lord, for You are our Father. Where now, is Your zeal and Your valour, You are withholding Your compassion from us. Even though Abraham may not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us, You, Lord, are our Father and our Redeemer from of old.
“Abraham does not know us and Israel does not acknowledge us”, Our true ancestry is lost, but whether we are Israelites by descent or by faith in Jesus, we can still call our Father and Redeemer of old. All of todays Christians, from every nation and language. Isaiah 51:1-2, Isaiah 56:1-8, Revelation 5:9-10
Isaiah 63:17-19 Why, Lord, do You let us wander from Your ways and harden our hearts, so that we no longer revere You? Turn again for the sake of Your servants, the peoples that are Your inheritance.
Why have enemies trespassed on Your sanctuary? Why have our enemies trampled the Land? You have not ruled over them, they are not Your subjects. We are Your people from ancient times, Your servants and witnesses.
Our prayer for today:
Psalm 106:47 Deliver us, Lord our God, and gather us from among the nations, so that we may give thanks to Your Name and make Your praise our pride.
Reference: Revised English Bible. Some verses abridged.
No, Berean; John 14: 1-2 says nothing about us going to live in heaven. The Kingdom of Jesus is over all the earth. Psalms 2: 7-9

Like many, you are wrong on this point.
Jesus is clear in this passage from John 14
But Satan has long confused things so that the Christian world will wait for an earthly messiah. This is not biblical because when Jesus returns, the wicked will be destroyed (Rev. 19; 2Thes 1: 6-10))
and devastated. The elect will go to heaven with Christ. The martyrs will witness the judgment of the lost with Christ for 1000 years( in Heaven), then the new Jerusalem will come down to the earth, and then after the execution of judgment (lake of fire) God will make new heavens and a new earth where righteousness will dwell.Globaly THIS IS the THRUTH That I Say to You
MAY God help You to understand.
…..when Jesus returns, the wicked will be destroyed (Rev. 19; 2Thes 1: 6-10))
and the earth will be devastated.Your idea, Berean, is totally and completely refuted by Revelation 15:1…… With them, [the Seven Plagues] the wrath of God is completed.
Trust in His Deliverance……..Our Test by Fire; The Sixth Seal:
Ecclesiasticus 51:1-6 I shall give thanks to You, my Lord and King, I shall praise You as my Saviour, because You are my protector and helper. You rescue me from destruction, from the traps of my enemies – those who invent lies, those who wait to devour me. In the fullness of Your mercy, You rescue me from the hands that threaten my life, the many troubles that I endure, from the choking fire that envelopes me and from the grave. 1 Peter 4:12, Isaiah 35:3-4, Psalm 11:5-6, Psalm 97:10-12, Psalm 121:1-8, Isaiah 51:6, Habakkuk 3:13
Eccl. 51:7-10 On every side I was surrounded and there was no one to help. I looked for human aid and there was none. Then I remembered Your mercy, what You did in days long past. You deliver those who put their trust in You and free them from their enemies. Psalm 31:4-5, Psalm 34:19-22, Psalm 108:12-13
From the earth, I send up my prayer, begging to be rescued from death. I cried: Lord God – You are my Father, do not abandon me in my time of trouble, when I am helpless in the face of arrogance. Isaiah 54:17, Joel 3:16, Psalm 34:17
Psalm 37:39-40, Psalm 62:1-8, Psalm 91:14-16
Eccl. 51:11-12 My petition was granted, now I shall praise You and make thanksgiving. You saved me from destruction, bringing me out from my desperate plight, I shall bless the Name of the Lord. Nahum 1:7, Zechariah 9:16, Isaiah 12:1-6
Eccl. 51:23-30 You that are uninformed, come to Me and listen to My instruction. Why lack knowledge and leave your thirst unslaked? Psalm 19:7, Isaiah 51:7-8
The Lord proclaims: Buy wisdom for yourself, without cost – it is not far from you. May you delight in the Lord’s mercy and never be ashamed of praising Him. Do your duty at this time and in His time, He will give you your reward. Reference: REB Apocrypha, some verses abridged.
Psalm 13:5, Psalm 37:5, Psalm 56:3-4, Psalm 62:8, Isaiah 30:15, Ezekiel 34:22-31
1 Corinthians 3:13-15 The work that each person does will, at the last be brought to light; the Day of judgement will expose it. For that Day dawns in fire and the fire will test the worth of each persons work. If anyone’s legacy survives, they will be rewarded, if the fire destroys it, they will have to bear the loss – yet they will escape with their life, though only by passing through the fire.
Psalm 62:11-12 Two things God has spoken that I have learned: All power belongs to God and unfailing love is His, because You reward everyone according to what they have done.
James 1:12 Happy is the person who stands firm in time of trial. If you pass safely through the time of testing, you will receive as your reward the life which God has promised to those who love Him.
Keras….. check this out, read Rev 17: 9-11, and tie that with Daniel 2: 31-45 , it will give the exact time line of events. We are now in the time of the end of the fifth Babyloian kingdoms, the next to arise will be the Sixth world ruling kingdom of Jesus and the Saint’s, which will last for 1000 years, and at the end of that the Seventh WORLD RULLING KINGDOM OF BABYLON, rise as the wound inflicted on it when the sixth kingdom of Jesus and the Saint’s, is heald.
The mind that has wisdom mentioned in Rev 17: 9, is the person that understands that John was transported in time to the “day of the Lord”, the sixth kingdom and was speaking from that point in the timeline. He was speaking of what was to happen after the Sixth kingdom of Jesusand the Saint’s.
Peace and love to you and yours………gene
Hi Keras
meditate on it and you will begin to understand.
Jeremiah 4
For my people is foolish, they have not known me; they are sottish children, and they have none understanding: they are wise to do evil, but to do good they have no knowledge.
[23] I beheld the earth, and, lo, it was without form, and void; and the heavens, and they had no light.
[24] I beheld the mountains, and, lo, they trembled, and all the hills moved lightly.
[25] I beheld, and, lo, there was no man, and all the birds of the heavens were fled.
[26] I beheld, and, lo, the fruitful place was a wilderness, and all the cities thereof were broken down at the presence of the LORD, and by his fierce anger.
[27] For thus hath the LORD said, The whole land shall be desolate; yet will I not make a full end.
[28] For this shall the earth mourn, and the heavens above be black: because I have spoken it, I have purposed it, and will not repent, neither will I turn back from it.
[29] The whole city shall flee for the noise of the horsemen and bowmen; they shall go into thickets, and climb up upon the rocks: every city shall be forsaken, and not a man dwell therein.
[30] And when thou art spoiled, what wilt thou do? Though thou clothest thyself with crimson, though thou deckest thee with ornaments of gold, though thou rentest thy face with painting, in vain shalt thou make thyself fair; thy lovers will despise thee, they will seek thy life.
[31] For I have heard a voice as of a woman in travail, and the anguish as of her that bringeth forth her first child, the voice of the daughter of Zion, that bewaileth herself, that spreadeth her hands, saying, Woe is me now! for my soul is wearied because of murderers.
