Is This Heaven?

 

John 14:2-3 (NIV) 2 In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 

1 Corinthians 2:9-10 (NIV) 9 However, as it is written: "No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him"-- 10 but God has revealed it to us by his Spirit. (Not only is ours the Kingdom future, but also the Kingdom now, for Jesus is our Savior and King who rules on the throne of our hearts.)  

Luke 6:20 (NIV) 20 Looking at his disciples, he said: "Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God, (In our heart now and in our future,)  

Luke 17:21 (NIV) 21 ......' because the kingdom of God is within you."  (Now)

Matthew 6:33 (ESV) 33 ..... seek first the kingdom of God and his righteousness, and all these things will be added to you. (Now)

Matthew 6:9-10 (NIV) 9 "This, then, is how you should pray: "'Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, 10 your kingdom come, (Future) your will be done on earth (Now)  as it is in heaven. (Now)

Psalm 16:11 (NLT) 11 You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence (Now) and the pleasures of living with you forever. (Future)

"HEAVEN CAME DOWN"

Oh what a wonderful, wonderful day, day I will never forget.  After I'd wandered in darkness away, Jesus my Savior I met. Oh what a tender, compassionate friend, He met the need of my heart Shadows dispelling, with joy I am telling, He made all the darkness depart

Heaven came down and glory filled my soul When at the cross the Savior made me whole My sins were washed away My night was turned to day Heaven came down and glory filled my soul yeah.

Born of the Spirit with life from above into God's family divine. Justified fully through Calvary's love Oh what a standing is mine.  And the transaction so quickly was made, when as a sinner I came. Took of the offer of grace He did proffer He saved me Oh praise His dear Name.

Heaven came down and glory filled my soul. When at the cross the Savior made me whole. My sins were washed away My night was turned to day Heaven came down and glory filled my soul.
