John 14:1-3 “Do not let your hearts be troubled. You believe in God; believe in Me as well. 2 In My Father’s house are many rooms. If it were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you? 3 And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and welcome you into My presence, so that you also may be where I am. 4 You know the way to the place where I am going.”

In these verses, Jesus is speaking to His disciples on the night before His crucifixion. They were troubled because He had told them that He was going to leave them. Jesus comforted them by promising that He was going to prepare a place for them in His Father’s house.

This promise is for every believer. Jesus will return and bring all who have trusted in Him into His presence for all eternity. Live each day with the hope that one day you will see Jesus face to face.

This hope should motivate you to pursue holiness and grow in your relationship with Christ. Abide in Him, fill your life with the Word of God, pray continually, confess your sins, and depend on the Holy Spirit for the strength to resist temptation and obey God’s Word. As you wait for Christ’s return, faithfully share the gospel and help others follow Him. ~ Jeff M Newman
