Life Comes After a Painful Process

There is always a laboring process before life begins. Do you remember that process for each of your children? For ours, each experience was a nervous, anxious, heart wrenching time. Increasing contractions, balanced breathing, fighting enduring pain, crying out. It was all for LIFE and the JOY OF LIFE. AMAZING!

In the same way, all of creation is in a laboring fight for life. Have you ever wondered how the heavenly's will fight and cry out for the salvation of God and will be a part of the fulfillment of Scripture?

All of creation is going to continue the fight for God's wonderful LIFE to be born. HIS CREATION SALVATION. Jesus sealed it for us. He conceived eternal life for everyone who believes in him, and even the planets, stars, comets, the whole universe have their time and place in this process. Each of us waits in the balance. There is understandable nervousness for what is ahead. The Bible says that some people's hearts will even fail for fear of what is coming upon the earth, but we must TAKE HEART! It's all for a reason! As we see the perplexities, wars, famines, earthquakes, as the Dragon tries to devour the LIFE , REMEMBER it is all for the purpose of making all things new. God has promised that all things will be made new in the heavens and earth!

“Nation will go to war against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and earthquakes in many parts of the world. But all this is only the first of the birth pains, with more to come.”
Matthew 24:7-8 NLT

“Against its will, all creation was subjected to God’s curse. But with eager hope, the creation looks forward to the day when it will join God’s children in glorious freedom from death and decay. For we know that all creation has been groaning as in the pains of childbirth right up to the present time.”
Romans 8:20-22 ESV

“Then I witnessed in heaven an event of great significance. I saw a woman clothed with the sun, with the moon beneath her feet, and a crown of twelve stars on her head. She was pregnant, and she cried out because of her labor pains and the agony of giving birth. Then I witnessed in heaven another significant event. I saw a large red dragon with seven heads and ten horns, with seven crowns on his heads. His tail swept away one-third of the stars in the sky, and he threw them to the earth. He stood in front of the woman as she was about to give birth, ready to devour her baby as soon as it was born.”
Revelation 12:1-4 NLT

“Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth, for the old heaven and the old earth had disappeared. And the sea was also gone. And I saw the holy city, the new Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven like a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them. He will wipe every tear from their eyes, and there will be no more death or sorrow or crying or pain. All these things are gone forever.” And the one sitting on the throne said, “Look, I am making everything new!” And then he said to me, “Write this down, for what I tell you is trustworthy and true.” And he also said, “It is finished! I am the Alpha and the Omega—the Beginning and the End. To all who are thirsty I will give freely from the springs of the water of life. All who are victorious will inherit all these blessings, and I will be their God, and they will be my children. “But cowards, unbelievers, the corrupt, murderers, the immoral, those who practice witchcraft, idol worshipers, and all liars—their fate is in the fiery lake of burning sulfur. This is the second death.””
Revelation 21:1-8 NLT
