Scripture: for he waited for the city which has foundations, whose builder and maker is God. Hebrews 11:10
Observation: Heaven's description, it is a city made up of a society, well established, well defended and well supplied. It is a city that has foundations, purity, a place where the fulfillment of salvation is seen, heaven is a city who's builder and maker is God.
Application: Abraham had a high regard for this place we call heaven, he looked for it, he believed there was such a place, he waited for it, and he conversed in it by faith. Heaven influenced Abraham's conversation, the hope of it supported him under all the trials of his sojourning state, helped him have the fruit of patience, and was a motivation to service to it's builder. Heaven was a place Abraham longed for.
Heavenly Father, may I long for heaven. May heaven anchor my faith in all that you are, and all that you do. May heaven influence my conversation, support me in times of trails and work patience in my life. Lord, heaven is what I am watching for and I long to see it for myself, in Jesus name....A-men
