THE PROMISED LAND

Hebrews 11:16
But they were looking for a better place, a heavenly homeland. That is why God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a heavenly city for them.

Where would your dream home be located? Many immigrants excitedly move to the United States to pursue their “American Dream” and sometimes that excitement fades after just a few months because the following thought: “This place is not what I expected it to be like.” God, however, has promised to us a place that He built Himself. It's a place where there’ll be no pain, tears, or problems. The best thing about this Promised Land is that we will be with our Savior forever. Jesus promised us in John 14:1-4, "Don't be troubled. You trust God, now trust in me. There are many rooms in my Father's home, and I am going to prepare a place for you. If this were not so, I would tell you plainly. When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with me where I am. And you know where I am going and how to get there." While we are happily waiting for that day, be content with what you have because our Promised Land is just going to be heavenly.
