Seeking
a Homeland
“This world is not my home, I’m just passing through, my
treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue. The angels beckon me from
heaven’s open door, and I can’t feel at home in this world anymore.” Lyrics by Albert E. Brumley
Are you seeking a foundation whose builder and maker is
God? A city that is better than all the cities in the past, present, and
future. This city will be larger and far more glorious than any city on earth.
It’s a physical city mentioned eleven times in the Book of Revelation. It’s a
city made by God’s own hands.
Abraham was looking forward to the city with foundations
built by God. Hebrews 11:8-10.
All of us who claim Christ as our Savior are looking
forward to the New Jerusalem to join thousands upon thousands of angels in
joyful assembly whose names are written in heaven. Hebrews 13:14.
John saw the new city, already built coming down from
heaven. Revelation 21:1-5.
This is the city that Jesus is preparing for us and is
reserved for those who have trusted and put their faith in God.
God can do anything and can certainly design and build a great
celestial city and relocate it to the new earth at the beginning of eternity.
