2 Chronicles 6:12-42; Ezekiel 30:20-31:18; John 11:28-54
For You, O my God, have revealed to Your servant that You will build him a house. 1 Chronicles 17:25a, NKJV
In My Father’s house are many mansions…I go to prepare a place for you. John 14:2, NKJV
David was determined to build a house for the Lord. Instead, the Lord promised that He would build David a house. While here on earth, Christ dwelt among us. Before departing He said that He was going to prepare a place for us—in the Father’s house. One day He will come and take us to our eternal home. —Rex Trogdon
Oh, the soul-thrilling rapture when I view His blessed face,
And the luster of His kindly beaming eye;
How my full heart will praise Him for the mercy, love and grace,
That prepare for me a mansion in the sky. —Fanny J. Crosby
