Heavenly Relationships

Q. The scriptures speak mostly of the physical elements of life in the New Jerusalem and nothing about how we will relate to each other.   Different books have shown our new home as physical and real, more real than this one, if that can be imagined.   But here is where I am coming from.  I lost a woman that I loved some time ago and even though I know I will see her again, will our relationship be the same or can it be?  We were in love, and I want that again and not some combination of  best friends/siblings/soul mates.  Frankly, that kind of relationship is not enough for me.  I want my wife back and, and I mean no disrespect, but if we are together as ‘friends’ only, then Heaven has lost some of its luster.
A. First of all, remember that no one knows what our heavenly relationships will be like, so anything you’ve heard or read that has you perplexed is just unsupported opinion.
Second, you have only experienced an earthly relationship involving fallen people.  Trying to compare that with a heavenly one involving perfected people is premature to say the least.
Third, you’ve been promised unending joy, so it stands to reason that you won’t have any longing to return to the past.  The Lord hasn’t spent all this time preparing your eternity with Him just to leave you disappointed at being there.  On the contrary, Paul said our next life will far surpass our wildest dreams and expectations (1 Cor. 2:9).

ALWAYS REFILL 7

OPEN HEAVENS DAILY DEVOTIONAL  DATE: DAY, 17TH AUGUST 2025 TOPIC: ALWAYS REFILL VII MEMORIZE: For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed. John 6:55 MESSAGE As I conclude this series, I want you to know that you can also be refilled spiritually through the Holy Communion. In John 6:48-51, Jesus said, “If you eat My flesh, you are eating the bread of life.” In other words, He was saying, “The bread of life is My body.” When you eat the body of Christ, you are eating a body that is full of virtue and the anointing of the Holy Spirit; you are taking all that virtue into yourself. If you take the Holy Communion worthily, there is no way your spiritual battery won’t be recharged. When the woman with the issue of blood touched the hem of Jesus’ garment, He said that virtue had gone out of Him (Mark 5:25-34). When you eat the bread, you are eating virtue because it symbolises the body of Christ. The wine of the Holy Communion, which symbolises the blood of Jesus, contains th...

Why did GOD Kill NABAL?

I came across a Story in the Bible in 1Samuel 25. This story cut my attention and leave me wondering, asking myself a question: WHY DID GOD KILLED NABAL?   I decided to take my time to dig deep into this Amazing Story and it is so Awesome what the HolySpirit reveals to me of this story. It is my Prayer that your life will be Transformed as you read this didactic Discoveries about NABAL, ABIGAIL & DAVID. Amen. Two of the Psalms, the fourteenth and fifty-third, begin with the statement, ``The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God.'' When we read these words today, we might picture an atheist-someone who has come to believe, perhaps for philosophical or scientific reasons, in the nonexistence of a Supreme Being. However, we have no evidence that there were any atheists living in the time of David, to whom this psalm is attributed. In those days many people believed in a plethora of deities, but few, as far as we know, imagined that there were none at al...
