Heaven's Gate and Your Life

The Open Gate and the Heavenly Heart
What will the kingdom of God be like? Isaiah 60:11 says, "Your gates will be open continually; they will not be shut day or night." Revelation 21:25 says, "And the gates of it will not be shut at all by day: for there will be no night there." One of the main characteristics of God's kingdom is the open gate; no more need for closing or defensiveness. The gates are open. If heaven is characterized by an open gate, and if you want to live a heavenly life, it has to be characterized by an open gate- or rather, an open heart. So whenever you close your heart in bitterness, anger, self-pity, conflict, or strife, the one you cripple the most is yourself, because you're closing the gate to God's love. It will prevent you from ever knowing the heavenly life you were meant to know. If you want to live a heavenly life, there's only one way. Open the gate of your life through repentance, forgiveness, and love. The treasures of God's love will flow into your heart and your life will become like heaven.

Today's Mission
Today, open your heart by faith and allow God's love to flow through it. Let it transform your life.

Revelation 21:25
King James Version
25 And the gates of it shall not be shut at all by day: for there shall be no night there.
The Angel speaking with me had a gold measuring stick to measure the City, its gates, and its wall. The City was laid out in a perfect square. He measured the City with the measuring stick: fifteen hundred miles, its length, width, and height all equal. Using the standard measure, the Angel measured the thickness of its wall: seventy-two yards. The wall was jasper, the color of Glory, and the City was pure gold, translucent as glass. The foundations of the City walls were garnished with every precious gem imaginable: the first foundation jasper, the second sapphire, the third agate, the fourth emerald, the fifth onyx, the sixth carnelian, the seventh chrysolite, the eighth beryl, the ninth topaz, the tenth chrysoprase, the eleventh jacinth, the twelfth amethyst. The twelve gates were twelve pearls, each gate a single pearl.

The main street of the City was pure gold, translucent as glass. But there was no sign of a Temple, for the Lord God—the Sovereign-Strong—and the Lamb are the Temple. The City doesn’t need sun or moon for light. God’s Glory is its light, the Lamb its lamp! The nations will walk in its light and earth’s kings bring in their splendor. Its gates will never be shut by day, and there won’t be any night. They’ll bring the glory and honor of the nations into the City. Nothing dirty or defiled will get into the City, and no one who defiles or deceives. Only those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life will get in.

Have a blessed day and week.
May Yeshua Hamashiach the Christ bless you.
