1 John 5:13
I write these things to you who believe in the name of the Son of God so that you will know that you have eternal life.
Can you know without a shadow of a doubt that you’re going to heaven? According to John, yes, you can! So, take the words hope-so or a maybe-so out of your vocabulary, because when you put your trust in Jesus, it’s an absolute, know-so that heaven is your new eternal destination.

Jude 1:21
Keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.
What would change in your life if you really believed every moment of every day that God loves you? You might throw away your nightlight, you might wear the clothes you actually like, or you might start dancing like no ones’ watching. Because when you know you’re loved, fear simply disappears.

Revelation 5:9
And they sang a new song, saying: You are worthy to take the scroll and to open its seals, because You were slain, and with Your blood You purchased for God persons from every tribe and language and people and nation.
Heaven will be a place of worship filled with people that will look very different from you. They’ll be from every tribe, every nation, and they’ll speak every language. And as you get to meet each person and hear how God changed their lives, you won’t be able to stop praising the One who, right now, sits at the right hand of the Father. He is worthy to be praised!

Psalm 59:16
But I will sing of Your strength, in the morning I will sing of Your love; for You are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.
Mornings are for the birds. And when they wake you before your alarm with their musical melodies, it can make you want to be kind of grumpy. But the reason they’re singing is to remind you that that’s what you should be doing. Because God gave you another day to live, another day to love, and another day to share the Good News that Jesus saves! How can you not sing?

Psalm 95:1
Come, let us sing for joy to the LORD; let us shout aloud to the Rock of our salvation.
When God’s delivered you from a dark place, you can’t help but rejoice. Whether it’s with a joyful noise or a melodious tune, your heart can’t help but lift up the mighty, awesome name of the Lord. And when you choose to sing out those praises, oftentimes people won’t be able to help, but join in with you.

Zephaniah 3:17
The LORD your God is with you, the Mighty Warrior who saves. He will take great delight in you; in His love He will no longer rebuke you, but will rejoice over you with singing.
It’s hard to imagine a mighty warrior singing, but when you’re filled with love, it kind of makes you want to lay down the sword and lift up your voice instead. God is that Mighty Warrior who not only saved His people from their enemies, but He’s also the lovestruck soldier that sings over His beloved Bride in whom He delights. Be thankful today Your God is filled with saving power and overwhelming love for each one of His children.
