• 56:50
  Speaker 2: letting all thoughts fade away in Jesus's precious name. Welcome
• 57:06
  Speaker 2: to the Bedtime Story of Heaven, a journey through New Jerusalem.
• 57:14
  Speaker 2: The apostle John, also known as the One Jesus Loved,
• 57:19
  Speaker 2: received this vision from Jesus so he could share it
• 57:23
  Speaker 2: with you. It describes your future home in beautiful detail.
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: In the last book of the Bible, the Book of Revelation.
• 57:36
  Speaker 2: Now close your eyes, lie down in comfort, and let

  Speaker 2: your body relax. Take some peaceful breaths as we walk
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: together through the gates of the Holy City, the New Jerusalem,
• 57:53
  Speaker 2: in all of its beauty and splendor. Ask for God's
• 57:58
  Speaker 2: presence to fill them as we begin your bedtime story.

  Speaker 2: In prayer, Lord, I ask you to fill this room
• 58:11

  Speaker 2: it says, for the time is near. Now imagine that
• 59:01
  Speaker 2: you are John, the beloved disciple of Jesus. You have
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: lived faithfully for the Lord and have witnessed his death
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: and resurrection. It is many years later, and you are
• 59:17
  Speaker 2: alone on the island of Patmos. You are praying in
• 59:22
  Speaker 2: the Holy Spirit. You hear the waves gently coming in
• 59:27
  Speaker 2: and going back out. You smell the fragrance of the
• 59:32
  Speaker 2: sea and the sand, and the sun is warm on
• 59:36
  Speaker 2: your face. As you pray, Jesus sends an angel to you.
• 59:44
  Speaker 2: His face is pure light and warm. He is kind
• 59:49
  Speaker 2: and strong. Watch the angel as he presents you with

• 1:00:13
  Speaker 2: the future in his hands. You are deeply comforted and
• 1:00:19
  Speaker 2: secure in the Lord. You look into heaven and you
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 2: see Jesus, the Lamb who was slain, alive and on
• 1:00:31
  Speaker 2: his throne. You hear the voices of thousands and millions
• 1:00:37
  Speaker 2: of angels and living beings and elders around Jesus, and
• 1:00:43
  Speaker 2: they sing in a mighty, sweet chorus. Worthy is the
• 1:00:49
  Speaker 2: Lamb who was slain to receive power and riches and
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: wisdom and strength, and honor and glory and blessing. And
• 1:01:00
  Speaker 2: you heard every creature in heaven and on earth, and
• 1:01:04
  Speaker 2: under the earth, and in the sea, they sing blessing
• 1:01:09
  Speaker 2: and honor and glory and power belong to the one
• 1:01:14
  Speaker 2: sitting on the throne, and to Jesus the Lamb forever
• 1:01:19
  Speaker 2: and ever. As your mind tries to make sense of

  Speaker 2: wipe away every tear from their eyes, and death shall

  Speaker 2: that only the Savior can give. You feel the gentlest
• 1:09:13
  Speaker 2: breeze on your face, and know that the very presence
• 1:09:18
  Speaker 2: of God is with you. You've never felt more at peace.
