Heaven Entering Your Gates

Thursday, December 2, 2021

The idea that most people have about heaven is that heaven is a place you enter or the place you hope to enter. Even as believers we tend to think of Heaven primarily as the same thing. It's the place we will enter or we hope to enter, but Palm Sunday is the answer to that. Palm Sunday is about the Lord entering Jerusalem. The Lord, Yeshua, is the Lord of Heaven, the epitome of all that is Heaven - the Heavenly. And notice what's happening, it's not that we are trying to get into Heaven's Gate, rather it is HEAVEN entering into earth's gate. Salvation is not primarily about getting into heaven. It's about heaven getting into you. Stop trying to reach heaven and let Heaven reach you. You didn't first come to Him - He came to you. Stop trying to attain His love - let His love enter in. Stop trying to attain His holiness - let His righteousness enter in. Stop trying to attain His joy; but let His joy come into you, for He came into the gates of Jerusalem that Heaven would come through the gates for you.
