Many “days of rejoicing” in the history of PBL Baptisms (cf. Acts 8:39; 16:34) Restorations (cf. Luke 15) Weddings (cf. Gen. 2:22-25; Song 1:1-14; 3:6-11) Births (cf. Matt. 2:10; Luke 1:14) Deaths (cf. Psa. 116:15; Rev. 14:13) Mission works & missionaries (cf. Phil. 4:10-20) No greater day of rejoicing than when we get to heaven! We will see Jesus (Rev. 22:4; 1 John 3:2) We will worship Jesus (Rev. 5:8-14; 15:3) We will be with Jesus (Jn. 14:3; 2 Cor. 5:8; 1 Th. 4:17; Phil. 1:23)

We will be “reunited” with faithful Bible heroes (Matt. 8:11; Heb We will be “reunited” with faithful Christians of old (Rev. 14:3-4, 13; 2 Cor. 4:14) We will be reunited with faithful Christians we have known (1 Thess. 3:13; 4:14) Who do you want to see?

When we all get to heaven, will you be there? Will it be a day of rejoicing for you? Will it be a day of reunion for you? Are you ready? Do you believe that Jesus is God’s Son (John 20:30-31)? Have you repented of your sins and turned to God (Acts 3:19)? Have you confessed your faith in Jesus (Romans 10:9-10)? Have you been immersed for the remission of sins (Acts 2:38)? Are you living faithfully to the Lord (Revelation 2:10)?
