God Has Prepared a City for Us
16 Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
John 14:1-4
Jesus Prepares a Place for Us
1 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe also in me. 2 My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”
Ephesians 2:8-10
Created in Jesus to Do Good Works, Which God Prepared for Us
8 For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— 9 not by works, so that no one can boast. 10 For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
Luke 18:6-8
Faith When Jesus Comes
6 And the Lord said, “Listen to what the unjust judge says. 7 And will not God bring about justice for his chosen ones, who cry out to him day and night? Will he keep putting them off? 8 I tell you, he will see that they get justice, and quickly. However, when the Son of Man comes, will he find faith on the earth?”
God and His Son are prepared...We are told in these verses, that Jesus and His Father are prepared for us...They are in heaven with a room (for us) and a prepared place (for us)...God has prepared a city -all for us...It makes sense if God prepares Heaven for us that He is near us, and near us in our times of troubles...
By God's grace we are saved through faith in Him and His Son...We are God's handiwork made in His Image -evidence of His grace...His grace works on our Spirit and our soul...Because through the Holy Spirit, we are created in Jesus to do good works, which God has prepared in advance for us to do...We are saved by the Messiah coming and Him walking the earth...By sending us His Son, we see His grace...God's Son has become a Man and He has walked the earth...God is Provident over everything in the universe, and knows in advance what we will do and not do...
They are prepared for us...Are we prepared for Them?...
