(Revelation 22:14; John 14:2; Philippians 3:20; 1 Peter 1:4)

***LIVEPRAYER CHURCH!!! Haven’t been to church yet this week? Join me for this week’s service at the LivePrayer Church. This week’s message is: “Powerless lives!” Please visit the website at: http://liveprayerchurch.com and be part this week’s worship service. Each Sunday there will be a new service at 12:01am EST

***DAILY PERSONAL PRAYER FOR YOU: Lord, even though we have no right to ask, please continue to watch over this nation. Thank You for showing us the clear signs of destruction our sin and rebellion have heaped upon our land. I pray today that as a nation we will turn back to You and Your Truth. Give me strength as days of persecution are upon us, and let me stand proud and strong for You and Your Kingdom. In the name of Jesus I pray…AMEN!

***COMING THIS WEEK!!! “Do not be afraid or discouraged because of this vast army. ! For the
battle is not yours, but God’s!” 2 Chronicles 20:15 Next week I will be launching a new interactive tool for you to use anonymously each day to do your part in helping lead this nation back to God and His Truth. It will not cost you one penny or take more than 10 minutes out of your day! Look at what 11 sold out men of God did along with a remnant of faithful men and women who committed their lives to Jesus in starting the early church and spreading the Gospel to the known world of their day! HOW MUCH MORE CAN 1 MILLION SOLD OUT MEN AND WOMEN OF GOD DO WITH THE TECHNOLOGY OF OUR DAY??? So, prepare yourself to be part of this 1 million person army for soldiers for Christ who will help lead our nation out of God’s judgment to His bountiful blessings once again! WITH THE LORD FIGHTING FOR US WE CAN NOT LOSE!!!

***THE DAILY LIVEPRAYER TV NUGGET: Psalm 91!!! He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I w! ill say
of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. Thou shalt not be afraid for the terror by night; nor for the arrow that flieth by day; Nor for the pestilence that walketh in darkness; nor for the destruction that wasteth at noonday. A thousand shall fall at thy side, and ten thousand at thy right hand; but it shall not come nigh thee. Only with thine eyes shalt thou behold and see the reward of the wicked. Because thou hast made the Lord, which is my refuge, even the most High, thy habitation; There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. They shall bear thee up in their hands, lest thou dash thy foot against a stone. Thou shalt! tread
upon the lion and adder: the young lion and the dragon shalt thou trample under feet. Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name. He shall call upon me, and I will answer him: I will be with him in trouble; I will deliver him, and honor him. With long life will I satisfy him, and show him my salvation.

I remember years ago Barbara Walters had a special on ABC about Heaven and whether it really exists and all of the different beliefs people hold regarding Heaven. Of course, Walters gave equal time to all of the false religions of the world to espouse their perverted beliefs about Heaven, as well as those who don’t believe there even is such a place. Rather than critiquing her special or getting into a deep theological discussion on the Doctrine of Heaven, let me deal today with Heaven from what God has told us in His Word, our final and only authority in all matters.

Th! e Scriptures
clearly teach that there is a real and literal place called Heaven. It is spoken of in the Bible far more than hell. Heaven is the place the eternal souls of men who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior will spend eternity. The Bible teaches we will have a glorified body and dwell forever in Heaven with God our Creator. We know from God’s Word that Heaven will be a place of singing, of fellowship, of serving, and of learning. We don’t have lots of specifics in the Bible about the eternal home of Believers, and there are many unanswered questions about Heaven. Please be very cautious of those who take the glimpses we get in the Word and try to add details and make definitive statements about Heaven that are simply not supported by Scripture.

Here is the most important fact for you to know about Heaven. There is only ONE WAY to get there, and that is by putting your faith in Jesus Christ. PERIOD! Heaven is the home of God, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. It ! is a
place of perfection. That is why sin can’t exist in Heaven. We are all born with the sin we inherited from Adam and we all sin during the course of our life. It is our sin that separates us from a Holy God. Jesus was God’s one and only answer to man’s sin problem. He died as the one-time perfect sacrifice for the sins of all mankind. That is why there is no other name by which men are saved. It is faith in Jesus Christ, and Jesus Chris alone that saves you since He is the One who died for your sins.

Of course, all of the cults and false religions have their version of Heaven. Many of those beliefs were expressed on the ABC special. Never forget, all cults and false religions were started out of the hearts and minds of men who rebelled against God and the Truth of His Word. So their version of Heaven is a perversion of the Biblical Heaven and doesn’t even exist except in their imagination. They have not only promised their followers eternity in a place that doesn’t exis! t, but in
reality, led them to everlasting punishment in hell for rejecting God’s ONLY way to Heaven…faith in Jesus Christ.

(I am always amused at how cults like Mormonism and false religions like Islam dangle unlimited sex, food, and luxury, all powerful motivations of this finite life, as the reward for those who follow their damnable lies!)

Outside of the imaginary “heavens” the cults and false religions have dreamed up, there are two prevailing views on Heaven held by the masses that ABC special documented and I deal with every day here at Liveprayer and on the TV program. The first is that there is no such place as Heaven. For those who have rejected God, rejected His Word, and rejected Jesus Christ, they have also rejected the existence of Heaven. They hold to the belief that you simply die and that is it. Life ends, there is no more. For these people, their “heaven,” is found on earth. Their concept of a “heaven” is the good things that happen throughout your life! . These
people view Heaven and hell simply as “states” we are in during this life.

However, the most popular view and belief held by most people of Heaven is that it is a place where good people go after you die. Your entrance to Heaven is determined strictly by the amount of good works you do in your life. If you are simply a good person, do good things, help others during your life, when you die you will go to Heaven. Sadly, this is also the prevailing belief held by most people who go to church! It is a combination of two great lies, salvation by works and as long as you do your best you will get to Heaven when you die. These are particularly troubling to me since again, these are the views that are actually taught from the pulpits in many churches across the nation! Pastors who teach and preach these lies are no better than a Muslim Imam, a Jewish Rabbi, or a cult leader, guiding the souls of their followers straight to an eternity in hell !!!

Paul said in English ea! sy enough
for a 3rd grader to understand in Ephesians 2:8,9 that, “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God- not by works, so that no one can boast.” NOT BY WORKS! WHAT PART OF “NOT” DON’T PEOPLE UNDERSTAND??? There is NO AMOUNT of good works that is going to get you to Heaven. I don’t care how many elderly women you help across the street, how nice you are to your dog, how much money you give to Jerry’s kids on Labor Day, or the fact you don’t hit your wife or cheat on your taxes, YOU ARE NOT SAVED BY WORKS, BUT BY YOUR FAITH IN JESUS CHRIST AND GOD’S GRACE. PERIOD!!!

Also, this universalism lie from the pits of hell that everyone is going to make it to Heaven is simply that, a lie from the depths of hell itself! The fact is, everyone is NOT going to Heaven. Only those who have accepted Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior by faith will be in Heaven. The Bible teaches that those who reject Christ’s love will be c! ast into
hell and punished for all eternity. I didn’t say it, God did. The problem is people think they are “good people,” when in fact the Bible says “There are none that are good, no not one.” We are ALL sinners. The Bible declares we have ALL sinned and fallen short of God’s glory. There are NO good people, only lost souls who need a Savior. The only ones who will be going to Heaven are those who ask Christ to forgive them of their sins and accept Him into their heart and life by faith.

MEMO TO JOEL OSTEEN: The next time you go on TV to sell your latest ghost written book and the interviewer asks you the very simple question any Sunday School child can answer, “Will Muslims, Jews, and anyone else who rejects Jesus Christ be saved?” Your answer is an emphatic, “NO, only those who have put their faith in Jesus Christ will be saved.” You are not judging anyone Joel, and you are not condemning anyone to hell. GOD ALREADY JUDGED MAN AND ALL YOU ARE DOING IS WHAT GOD CALLED YOU TO! DO, AND
THAT IS TELL PEOPLE WHAT HE SAYS IN THE BIBLE!

I love you and care about you so much. There is so much about Heaven we don’t know. I get emails every day from people asking me specific questions about Heaven that I have to tell them I don’t know the answer. The greatest thing though is that those who know Jesus will find out one day very soon all those answers because we will be in Heaven and experience it first-hand. I can’t wait! While there is so much about Heaven we don’t know, we do know the most important thing and that is how to get there! We also know that we will be forever with Jesus. Knowing we will spend eternity in Heaven and that we will be forever in the presence of our Lord is really all I need to know about Heaven. All the rest, the crowns, the rewards, how old we will be, what we will look like in our glorified bodies, who and what we will know, will all be known to us once we get there.

I will be praying for you today. Praying that God will giv! e you the
courage the next time you end up in a dissuasion about Heaven to take a stand for the Truth of His Word. This is a common topic with those who aren’t saved, since most do believe there is a place called Heaven. They are simply confused about how to get there. That is where you come in. Remember, you are not condemning people to hell, you don’t have that ability. The only way a person can go to hell is if they choose to go there. God’s desire is that ALL men come to repentance, that none be lost. I’m convinced after 3 decades of evangelistic ministry that very few people really want to go to hell, they simply don’t believe there is such a place or nobody has ever told them how they can avoid going there.

I love when they do these types of specials, even though they give a forum to all the false religions of the word, since it is a great opportunity to talk to unbelievers about Heaven and about knowing Jesus so they can get there. Sadly, Walters didn’t interview anyone w! ith the
guts to simply look into the camera and boldly and without shame give a clear presentation of the Gospel. You can’t talk about Heaven without talking about how to get there, and the Bible tells us clearly that the ONLY way to Heaven is by accepting Jesus Christ as your Lord and Savior by faith. There really is a place called Heaven and I’m not only looking forward to getting there, but also in fellowshipping with all those in the Liveprayer family that I never got to meet during this life.
