An Open Heaven

“Then Nathanael declared, “Rabbi, you are the Son of God;

you are the king of Israel.”

Jesus said, “You believe because I told you I saw you under the fig tree.

You will see greater things than that.” He then added,

“Very truly I tell you, you will see heaven open, and the angels of God ascending and descending on the Son of Man.”

John 1:49-51

Have you ever peered into heaven?

Or

Have you seen heaven opened?

Does it matter?

Well, if Jesus taught His disciples to pray:

“...thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven...”

I would have to say that it does matter what is happening in heaven!

So how would we know?

A fair question I can ask in response to that question is:

Where are you seated?

“And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him

in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,”

Ephesians 2:6

Are you seated in the heavenly realms?

God wants us to be His Ambassadors on the earth.

He wants us to bring heaven to earth.

We are seated in the heavenly realms.

Our affections are to be set on heaven and not on earth.

Our affections are set in heaven in order that we, as we live on this earth, can live out those affections here.

His Kingdom coming to the earth!

Have you peered into heaven today?
