Overcome

I have been thinking about the Holy City...the New Jerusalem. What do we think about when we think of the return of the King? (besides Lord of the Rings movies) Jesus is the King of all kings, Ruler over the nations, and the only One, True, Living God. He is coming to reign on the earth as Sovereign King. So what about this city He is bringing down from heaven to earth. The city made glad by the streams of the river of the water of life that flows from the throne of God. (Ps.46, Rev.22)
So what do we know about a place that has no sun, needs no light, because the glory of God illuminates everything? In Him there is no darkness, no shadow of turning, everything is exposed! (Rev. 22, 1john1:5, james 1:17, Lk 18:17, 1Cor4:5, Heb4:13)

Please search the scripture for yourselves and ask God for revelation, and share it with me. We need it! Oh God I need revelation! I want to know You Lord! I want to know about You! I want to know about where You are, what You are doing, feeling, thinking! I must know You God! Give us true revelation in our hearts!

Do we all agree that this world is passing away? That this earth is a temporary residence? (Rev 21:1, Matt 24:35, 1 Cor7:31) What should we be looking for? How do we 'Watch'? (Matt24:42, Mk13:37, Lk 21:36, Acts20:31, 1Thes5:6, 1Pet4:7) What happens when we see? Who do we tell? What do we see? (Ez 3:17, 33:7)
What is to come? Who will live? How can we familiarize ourselves with the Most High God and His Holy habitation? Oh! Holy Spirit open our ears and our hearts, put the word of the Lord in our minds and in our hearts, that we may be God's people, and He will be our God! (Heb 10, Jer 31) Bless Israel and bring forth the glory of the Lord in the name of Jesus! We come before the throne of God, by the blood of the Lamb asking Lord for a real revealing of Your love in our hearts that we may speak forth the testimonies of Jesus to the glory of the Father. Deliver us from evil that we may overcome, we ask for strength, wisdom, and understanding, in Jesus name. (Rev12:11, Prov 4, 19, 16) Fill us with Life!

Revelation 21
1Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the first heaven and the first earth had passed away, and there was no longer any sea. 2I saw the Holy City, the new Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. 3And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, "Now the dwelling of God is with men, and he will live with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. 4He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away."
5He who was seated on the throne said, "I am making everything new!" Then he said, "Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true."
6He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life. 7He who overcomes will inherit all this, and I will be his God and he will be my son. 8But the cowardly, the unbelieving, the vile, the murderers, the sexually immoral, those who practice magic arts, the idolaters and all liars—their place will be in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death."
