When you are at your most weakest,
And feel that you just can’t cope,
One thing you ought to remember,
With the Lord there is always hope.
No challenge is too big for Jesus,
His shoulders can bear any load,
He will lighten your grievous burden,
And smooth out the most rugged road.
He has been down that way before you,
And knows what dangers may lie ahead,
He will clear a path thru the darkness,
Where even Angels may fear to tread.
Yes, our Savior is just that wonderful,
He cares so much more than you think,
Even tho the tempest roars around you,
Not one foot will ever slip or sink.
He will lift you up out of the mire,
And set you firmly upon His solid rock,
His Angels will always guard over you,
So in His peace you can safely walk.
The Book of Revelation informs us that at this current time, God’s Temple exists in Heaven. Within that Temple sits the very Throne of God the Father Himself, as well as that of the Lamb, which are mentioned in fourteen different chapters. However, at the same time, the Book of Revelation also informs us that when the Heavenly City — New Jerusalem — descends to the New Earth, there will be no Temple in it. However, the Throne of God the Father, and of the Lamb, will be in the Heavenly City.
“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.” Revelation 3:12, KJV
“Therefore are they before the throne of God, and serve him day and night in his temple: and he that sitteth on the throne shall dwell among them.” Revelation 7:15, KJV
“And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein. But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months . . . And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.” Revelation 11:1-2, 19, KJV
“And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe. And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped. And another angel came out of the temple which is in heaven, he also having a sharp sickle.” Revelation 14:15-17, KJV
“And after that I looked, and, behold, the temple of the tabernacle of the testimony in heaven was opened: And the seven angels came out of the temple, having the seven plagues, clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles. And one of the four beasts gave unto the seven angels seven golden vials full of the wrath of God, who liveth for ever and ever. And the temple was filled with smoke from the glory of God, and from his power; and no man was able to enter into the temple, till the seven plagues of the seven angels were fulfilled.” Revelation 15:5-8, KJV
“And I heard a great voice out of the temple saying to the seven angels, Go your ways, and pour out the vials of the wrath of God upon the earth . . . And the seventh angel poured out his vial into the air; and there came a great voice out of the temple of heaven, from the throne, saying, It is done.” Revelation 16:1, 17, KJV
“And he shewed me a pure river of water of life, clear as crystal, proceeding out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of the street of it, and on either side of the river, was there the tree of life, which bare twelve manner of fruits, and yielded her fruit every month: and the leaves of the tree were for the healing of the nations. And there shall be no more curse: but the throne of God and of the Lamb shall be in it; and his servants shall serve him . . . And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are the temple of it.” Revelation 21:1-3, 22, KJV
