I am going to prepare a place
for you. By John Macduff, the words of
Jesus. I am going to prepare a place
for you. When everything is ready, I will
come and get you, so that you will always be with me where
I am. John chapter 14 verses 2 through
3 What a wondrous thought! Jesus is now busied in heaven
in his people's behalf. He can find no abode in all his
wide dominions, befitting as a permanent dwelling for his
ransomed ones. He says, I will make a new heavens
and a new earth. I will found a special kingdom.
I will rear eternal mansions expressly for those I have redeemed
with my blood. Orphaned pilgrims, dry your tears. Soon the sighs of a groaning
and burdened creation will be heard no more. Soon He will come
again to receive those who followed Him in His cross, to be everlasting
partakers with Him in His crown.
