Life is pointless without Heaven as a goal

Hello everyone! Happy New Month!

We are in the month of November, I pray that this month will be a prosperous, flourishing and thriving month for you all. You deserve it!

Today’s blog topic is; ‘ Life is pointless without Heaven as a goal’

I came across a video on TikTok where a man was speaking about life and he stated: ‘We are all born on this planet, working 5 to 7 days a week, to make money that we spend our whole life trying to get as much of it as we can, so that we can live comfortably, but the only thing that is certain is death and the tax man running you down at the end of the year. This thing that we do called life is crazy.’ He goes onto say that he is on his way to work and asks himself ‘what am I actually doing?’

This video is partly the reason I wanted to write a blog on this topic, because a lot of individuals’ feel this way. We just work to make some money, have a couple of days off, then back to it the following week and that continues on until your time on earth comes to an end. Life can feel like a cycle of work and money, leaving us wondering about the bigger purpose.

Is there more to this?

The answer is, yes. Heaven.

Heaven should be the goal for us all and life is pointless without Heaven being your ultimate purpose. Life is fickle. It is very unpredictable and likely to change. Life is filled with ups and it’s filled with downs, constant good days and continual bad days. Life is also temporary. It last for a little amount of time, it is not permanent. As that man stated, one thing for certain is death, therefore we must prioritise our love for God and focus on the eternal things.

It states in 1 John 2:15-17: ‘Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, love for the Father is not in them. For everything in the world, the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eyes, and the pride of life comes not from the Father but from the world. The world and its desires pass away, but whoever does the will of God lives forever.’

The Bible constantly reminds us that we are not of this world (Romans 12:2, Philippians 3:20, James 4:4). Although we live on earth and have been described as the ‘light of the world’ (Matthew 5:14-16) this is not our home. This is not where it ends. God wants his children to be with him. So do not focus on the things down here on earth, it will eventually all perish and cease to exist. However, Heaven awaits us and God has prepared it for those who love him (1 Corinthians 2:9).

He will wipe every tear from your eyes, there will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away (Revelation 21:4).

These verses reassure us that Heaven is a place of eternal joy and peace that the Lord has prepared for us! Our main objective should be to get to Heaven

Life is meaningless without Heaven being the highest aim.

God bless x

No one starts late. They start.

​ Hi guys! Welcome back to another blog. I cannot believe today is the third day of August! Is it me, or has 2023 been flying by??? Nevertheless, I hope this year has been amazing for you so far! Only 4 Months left of this year. I pray the rest of your year will be blessed in Jesus name.   Todays’ blog topic is called; ‘No one starts late. They start.’ In my previous blogs I speak a lot about purpose. However, in this blog I want to go into further depth.  Everyone has their own personal journey in life, there is a reason why we are born at a certain time, into a certain generation, into a certain family, into a certain country; God does not make any mistakes. There is a reason why God designed and constructed it to be this way. There is a reason and a purpose for why you are here. There is a reason why God chose you.  In Ecclesiastes 3:11 it states; ‘He hath made everything beautiful in his time.’  I want to speak to those who feel as though they are behind. Those w...

Falling back

Thank you Lord for today, thank you for waking us up to see this beautiful new day that you have made, thank you for your grace, thank you for your mercy, thank you for who you are, thank you for never changing, thank you for never turning your back on us even when we slack on our Christian walk; when we go through periods where we’re not praying as much, not being as consistent in studying the word, slowly falling back into old ways, we thank you Lord. In Jesus name we pray Amen. Today I want to talk about ‘falling back’ falling back on our journey with Christ. Being a Christian is not easy and sometimes we do slack on the journey. We find ourselves in a time where we don’t pray as much or we’re not reading the Bible consistently and I felt I had reached that point. I spoke to a friend who is on her own personal journey with God, told her I had these moments where I felt as though I would fall back every now and then and proceeded to ask how she was able to keep on top of her reli...

Manifesting vs Praying

Hello everyone! Welcome back to another blog! If you’re new here, welcome! Today I want to speak on the topic of manifesting versus praying. I have noticed for a while now, that a lot of people get the two confused, therefore I believe it is my duty as Woman of God to address this topic and hopefully those who are reading will come to a better understanding of what manifesting and prayer is and how they are different from each other.  Manifesting is the act of bringing something into existence, through thoughts, actions, and emotions. When you focus your energy on what you want to create, you’re effectively manifesting it into existence. You’ve heard a lot of times ‘manifest what you want’, or the more popular one; ‘speak it into existence!’ (which I too have been guilty of) and if you do this, whatever you want is yours. On the other hand, the Bible tells us in Philippians 4:6; ‘Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving le...
