Revelation 21:2 - John Hagee Daily Devotional | August-08-2025. Then I, John, saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her husband.
Blessing: Every believer is longing for a place which we have never seen nor visited. Like Abraham, we are looking for a city that was designed and built by God, whose foundations are real and eternal (Hebrews 11:10). One day, we will hear the words, “Well done, good and faithful servant!” and we will walk through gates of pearl on streets of pure gold as transparent as glass. A mansion of splendor prepared by the Architect of the Ages awaits our arrival. The sun and moon have no need to shine, because the glory of God will illuminate the city. The Lamb is its light.
Unlike any city we have ever known, the word “goodbye” has never been spoken there. No tears of sadness have ever been shed. It knows no sorrow, no sickness, and no separation. No hospitals, cancer wards or nursing homes exist there. No suffering or death have darkened its atmosphere.
The redeemed will wear dazzling robes of righteousness and majestic crowns of life, and it will be our deepest honor and greatest joy to cast our crowns at the feet of our Redeemer when we finally see Him face to face. He is the Alpha and Omega, the Bright and Morning Star, worthy of blessing, honor, glory, and power forever and ever!
Today's Blessing: May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you and give you His peace. What a blessed reward awaits those who hold fast to the confession of their faith without wavering! Come quickly, Lord Jesus!
