Pleasures forever. We lost a son three weeks ago. He was 32 years old but had struggled with mental issues most of his life. We believe the pain of this life became unbearable for him. He wanted to be with Jesus. “You show me the path of life - in Your presence is the fullness of Joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forever.” Ps 16:11. This is no easy thing, but at least we know he is not suffering anymore. No more pain. No more tears. Like the thief on the Cross, he is Home.... We will put his ashes to rest this week. A small memorial service. We will see him soon I should think. Pleasures forever. I bought the book this morning. They will not deliver till November 24th. That’s ok. I pray, like Jimmy said, that people will order this book and be changed. Life goes on.... 🌺
We lost our daughter as well, December 1 in 2022.. well, she suffered with debilitating disease called SMA, she was really happenedwe too, believe we will be with her soon🙏❤️
Oh Kris, our hearts and prayers are with you. I cannot imagine the pain you are feeling. I surely don't know how I would react if that happened to one of my own. I am so sorry! Here are some comforting scriptures from God's Holy Word: Deuteronomy 31:8, Psalm 23:4, Psalm 46:1, Psalm 55:22, Job 5:11, Matthew 5:4, and Romans 8:37-39. Love you my friend and I pray God's comforting touch over you and your family!
I am so very sorry for your loss. I don't know what it is like to go through the death of a child who is older but my first son in infancy died. His name was Aaron. I know for sure he is in a better place and our children will be waiting for us to join them one day. For several years after we lost Aaron I went to a grief support group for bereaved parents (before computers) and it was very helpful. It's called The Compassionate Friends. They have a great website now and support online.
I've walked just a little bit in your shoes, but not to the point of the loss of my child. I know you are grieving terribly, but yet at the same time you rejoice knowing your son is with Jesus. I pray that you begin to smile again, soon!
I am so sorry, Kris for the loss of your son! Our son died in 2018 at the age of 44, his heart just stopped beating. He had health issues that were plaguing him mostly because he was irresponsible and wouldn’t take care of himself, but he was still suffering. It took me a while, but God brought me to the truth that his death was because of God’s mercy. Our family was suffering because our son was suffering, many prayers were prayed and many tears flowed. God in His wisdom and mercy chose to take him home, even though I thought he should stay here and “get his act together”. But God always knows our deepest needs, understands in ways no one else can, and met our son’s needs by bringing him home. I still miss him and still weep at times, but I know I will see him again. He is no longer conflicted or in pain because he’s at peace with our Lord in heaven. And that gives me peace and hope.
I will pray for you and your family that God’s Presence and mercy will give you comfort in your time of grief and sorrow, because there’s no grief so sad as the loss of your child. God is good, all the time, through the good and the bad, He is still good.
Thank-you Cherre, Yes, God is good. We feel His mercy in this situation as well. We look forward Heaven and and seeing him again. What a day of rejoicing that will be…. 🌺
I am so ready to see evil GONE! I think we all are fed up with it every time we see the news today. Can't wait for the Lord to set things right! Come quickly Lord Jesus!! Thank you Jimmy for todays message!
In my daily prayers I always thank the Lord for all the good things in my life, because every good thing comes from Him and without Him I have no good thing. That’s why, if everyone knew, no one would ever want to step into eternity without God. We here know the way to all the things Pastor Jimmy talked to us about. Jesus came to show us the way. He is The Way. He reconciles us to the Father, the source of all good. Praise the Lord. He is due all praise and honor and glory and thanksgiving forever.
I truly am sorry for yours and everyone's loss, we lost a baby in the womb 6.5 months into the pregnancy, can't imagine anyone's loss and how people feel, my loss was back mid 1990's and sometimes I imagine what my only son to date would be doing, hopefully serving God. I take what David said when he and Bathsheba lost their child " you cannot come back to me, but I will go to you". It is somewhat comforting. I pray you find some peace as you continue to heal emotionally. God bless!!!
Hi Matthew, your comment touched my heart. Our son was born at 22 weeks prematurely and was too tiny to live. We held him in our arms when he went to be with the Lord. I believe with ALL my heart, our precious children go immediately to heaven when their hearts stop to beat. I love the verse you quoted, it's true. Also comforts in my heart too.
I am sorry Kari, may you be blessed and continue to heal, very tough to go through. May God bless you!! That scripture has helped me know I have many children that I lost meet me in heaven.
I have seen a lot of pain in my life. both physical and emotional It's probably why I look forward to Jesus coming back so much. I look forward to no days of arthritis pain, no emotional pain from rejection and a place where we know for sure we are safe from the evil of this world. Until then, I know Jesus will not forsake us and I know for sure he loves us and it's not conditional.
It’s comforting for sure for those experiencing earthly pains of their own, but also comforting that loved ones who departed with pain, now experience all that Heaven has to offer. Thank you Lord.
Thank you for these wonderful truths! I think on these things often and long for the return of Jesus! I am blessed of the Lord in many ways and always give Him thanks, but the trials of life are often difficult and I know it’s the same for many! What a joy to reflect on the fact that those of us who belong to Christ can anticipate such a blessed eternity in His presence because Jesus paid it all!!🙌🏻🙌🏻✝️.
Thank you Pastor Jimmy, this is very encouraging. Do you think we will sleep in heaven? I know we won't need to and may not want to but do you think we will be able to sleep if we want to? Thank you again for this.
I’ve thought of this too. Remember how, as little kids, we never wanted to go to sleep? Bedtime was bad news. Until natural tiredness took over and we had no choice but to succumb to sleep. Well, I think in heaven it will be like that, like when we were little and we never wanted to go to sleep. Only in heaven there will be no tiredness to demand sleep.
Some people think when you die you go to Paradise, not heaven. Then at some time later on you get to go to heaven? I believe we go to heaven as soon as we die. What is your answer??
Hey Kari! My twin sister just subscribed to TP and she was asking me if there’s been any videos or blogs on Taiwan from the past. I figured you might know?
Hi again… I did a search for your twin on Taiwan and there are a lot of TP posts. Tell her to do a search 🔍 and they will all pop up for her. Here’s a good one too - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/red-dragon-rising
Since the subject is heaven, the link is a wonderful interview with Pastor Don Piper talking about his “fatal” accident and subsequent 90 minutes in heaven. It’s fascinating. (57 minutes.)
Finally - she's at the place she's always wanted to be
Finally - she has the warmth of His Love unconditionally
Finally - she's broken chains of Disappointing Life
Finally - real Joy is her's, no longer weighed by strife
Finally - she's found someone Whose Love is without end
Finally - she has it all and riches beyond reason
Because
Finally that Mansion that was built for her alone
Is now where she is looking from - her blessed Eternal Home
And God will take great care of you
As only God I know can do
We'll meet again sweet Sister, by-and-by.
I wrote this for my sister who had a rough adult life who died by suicide, after her 17 year old grandson died by suicide, (who never got over the death of his dad in a single car accident). Then after my sister's death, my sister's only child (his mother- 52) also committed suicide, all within a few years of each other. Mother, daughter, grandson. God is the only one who could comfort and console in the quiet of the night, when everyone has gone home, because He is always there, never leaving us. God and the Bible - His Living Word is always our sustainer. God knows our pain - He lost His Son on the Cross, did He not?
My older sister and I are Believers, because of God we have overcome this tragedy and have Faith that we will unite with them in Heaven -

I know I have said this, but I am so sorry for your loss. I cannot even begin to fathom the loss of a child.

Laura, we love you and praying for your family.

Wonderful description. Trying to envision what heaven will be like can be so difficult since we cannot fully grasp the magnificence of it.
It’s comforting for sure for those experiencing earthly pains of their own, but also comforting that loved ones who departed with pain, now experience all that Heaven has to offer. Thank you Lord.
Thanks for an encouraging post, Pastor Jimmy

Powers, I too have wondered about this! :) Maybe our TP family can give us some information on this subject.
Looking up and waiting for our Lord Jesus return!
I’ve thought of this too. Remember how, as little kids, we never wanted to go to sleep? Bedtime was bad news. Until natural tiredness took over and we had no choice but to succumb to sleep. Well, I think in heaven it will be like that, like when we were little and we never wanted to go to sleep. Only in heaven there will be no tiredness to demand sleep.
Can you explain why the word says there will be no more sea??
Some people think when you die you go to Paradise, not heaven. Then at some time later on you get to go to heaven? I believe we go to heaven as soon as we die. What is your answer??
Faye, you are absolutely correct. The moment you die in a twinkling of an eye believers, go, directly to heaven.
Hey Kari! My twin sister just subscribed to TP and she was asking me if there’s been any videos or blogs on Taiwan from the past. I figured you might know?
Hi Jon…. I will check and post it here for your twin!! Love that’s she’s on the TP. What’s her “handle” ? I’ll keep an eye 👀 out for her💛
Hi again… I did a search for your twin on Taiwan and there are a lot of TP posts. Tell her to do a search 🔍 and they will all pop up for her. Here’s a good one too - https://endtimes.substack.com/p/red-dragon-rising
Thank you so much Kari! Her tag is @ABruce314 and her name is Anna. I will screenshot this and send her the link! 💚🙏🏽
Yay!! Hope Anna says hi soon
Praying for you and all of friends and family. So sorry for your loss. 🙏🙏🙏
Yes, we just do not have our glorified bodies yet.
Pastor Jimmy, I love when you teach about Heaven. I look forward to being there with everyone one day soon.
