A Scripture and a Prayer: “Heavenly Reservations”
“You believe in God; believe also in me. My Father’s house has many rooms; if that were not so, would I have told you that I am going there to prepare a place for you?” (John 14:1-2)
Prayer:
Lord, we don’t need Hotels.com to make our heavenly reservations, instead we need Jesus.com. I don’t mean this sound trite, but far too often we tend to go to the world and its definition of what is needed to get to heaven, rather than going to You and the way You have provided. Knowing there is no other way to heaven, and that the way the world believes comes up short, we submit ourselves to You, and the way of the cross. Help us then be faithful to follow You, for there is no other name but the name of Jesus by which we can be saved, and heaven bound. Jesus, You said that You are the way, the truth, and the life, and that no one can make to heaven outside of this relationship with You. So, once again, we submit ourselves to You. AMEN
