The last two chapters of the Revelation focus on the New Heaven, the New Earth, and the New Jerusalem. Everything John wrote in this book comes together beautifully in these final two chapters.
Our Eternal Hope
I am overwhelmed by the first paragraph in chapter 21. He will wipe away every tear, and mourning, pain, and death will be no more. What a beautiful promise about our eternal hope. The implications of sin, the former things, are passed away. All things are new.
The suffering in this world is used by God for our good and His glory. That truth anchors us soundly in Him. However, John’s description of the New Heaven and New Earth points us to an eternal life without suffering and pain. I can’t fully imagine this, but I love trying to imagine what it will be like.
Rest in His Promise
Praise God for His faithfulness. He is immutable, and we can rest in His promises. The veil will be removed, and God Himself will be with us! Amen! He will be our God, and we will be His sons. What a glorious truth this is!
This informs the perspective we should have today. It answers the questions we struggle with. This is our motivation, our focus, and our God, who loves us and gave Himself for us, will bless us richly for all eternity.
