In his dream, the Almighty Creator of heaven and earth took our five-year old son to His Heavenly Kingdom”
This is a personal testimony that I have been waiting to joyfully share with our brothers and sisters worldwide. Years ago when our oldest son was a little five year old, he had a divine encounter. In his dream, the Almighty Creator of heaven and earth took our son to His Heavenly Kingdom, to have a personal visit and a very brief glimpse of what awaits the redeemed children of God. Our young son told me firsthand, “Mommy, Jesus appeared to me in a dream and He took me and He showed me His Kingdom! The gates to the kingdom were very huge pearls, and we walked through one of the pearly gates. (At that time, our family were just newborn spiritual infants and did not know much Scripture, or any description of heaven) As his mother, I was listening to my five-year-old who was never given to imaginary tales, speaking of what he had just seen and heard.
"Mommy, there will not be any toys there.” I said, “why, why won't there be any toys?” and he said, “because we will be very busy serving Him.”
- See Revelation 22:3 -
He went on to say, “Mommy, after walking through the big pearl gate, Jesus showed me many things, and it was so beautiful, there were so many jewels shining bright, decorating the Kingdom, even the flowers were huge and looked like jewels!” And Mom, “there will not be any toys there.” I said, “why, why won't there be any toys?” and he said, “because we will be very busy serving Him.” When I heard this I knew my son had truly been in the presence of the Savior and in His Kingdom, because what little five-year-old boy is going to say, “there are no toys there, much less we'll be busy serving Him?” And he said, “Jesus showed me a huge huge dining room that was decorated with gold, even its ceiling was gold. It had so many seats that no one could count them all.
After our son began to share these few amazing details of what he saw in heaven, I looked in my Bible and was in awe when I found that most of what he told me was actually written in the Book of Revelation! I will be magnifying these Scriptures throughout this testimony.
Revelation 21:19 describes the jewels in the New Jerusalem, “The wall was made of jasper, and the city of pure gold, as pure as glass. The foundations of the city walls were decorated with every kind of precious stone.” (Revelation 21:19)…And Revelation 21:21 describes the twelve gates of the New Jerusalem (Heaven) as being made of twelve individual, massive pearls. In regards to the immense and glorious dining room he saw, Yahshua (Jesus) at the Last Supper during Passover said to His disciples, "I say to you, I will not drink of this fruit of the vine from now on until that day when I drink it with you, new, in My Father’s kingdom.” (Matthew 26:29) In Revelation 19:6-9 we read about the wedding supper of the Lamb, a victorious, joyous, heavenly celebration and banquet where Yahshua (Jesus) the Lamb, who is also called our Bridegroom, is united with His redeemed holy bride. It is written, “Blessed are those who are invited to the wedding supper of the Lamb!”
"Mommy, Jesus told me that He is making a new heaven and a new earth and then He told me He is coming back soon and I need to be serving Him and telling other people about His Kingdom.”
- See Revelation 21:1-27 -
Our son went on to say, “Mommy there will be no lamps in the kingdom to make light”, and then I asked, "why" and he said, “because our Savior's face is going to be the light that fills His kingdom.” With great excitement he said, “and Mommy, Jesus told me that He is making a new heaven and a new earth and then He told me He is coming back soon and I need to be serving Him and telling other people about His Kingdom.” In Revelation 22:3-5 we read, “…His bond-servants will serve Him; they will see His face, and His name will be on their foreheads. And there will no longer be any night; and they will not have need of the light of a lamp nor the light of the sun, because the Lord God will illuminate them; and they will reign forever and ever. Revelation 21:1-27 describes the new heaven and the new earth, coming down from heaven. It is written, “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the first heaven and the first earth passed away…”“Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people…The city had no need of the sun or of the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God illuminated it. The Lamb is its light.” “Yahshua, (Jesus) is the light of the world.” (John 8:12) His face is the brightness of the sun lighting up the kingdom!
"Yahshua (Jesus) for the joy set before Him [of sharing His Father’s Kingdom with His beloved redeemed], endured the crucifixion stake, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.”
- See Hebrews 12:2 -
Our son’s dream is a preview that we could have the eternal joy of the Kingdom set before us, having all of our hopes and desires not in this temporary passing world. It is written that Messiah “for the joy set before Him [of sharing His Father’s Kingdom with His beloved redeemed], endured the crucifixion stake, despising its shame, and has sat down at the right hand of the throne of God.” (Hebrews 12:2) His born again children have a reciprocal love that continually keeps the joy of spending eternity with Him ever before them, as they “work out their salvation” and are eagerly and longingly waiting to be with their God and Savior. As Yahshua (Jesus) conveyed to our little son, we will be serving Him eternally and that begins here on earth. Our Savior is coming for those who are eagerly waiting and wholeheartedly serving Him and others. We read, “Messiah was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, … for salvation.” (Hebrews 9:28) We “wait for His Son from heaven, whom He raised from the dead, Yahshua (Jesus) who delivers us from the wrath to come.” (1 Thessalonians 1:10) “For our citizenship is in heaven, from which we also eagerly wait for a Savior, the Lord Yahshua Messiah (Jesus Christ).” (Philippians 3:20)
We must be waiting for Him. It is vitally essential! To conclude this testimony Yahshua says, “Behold I am coming soon at an hour you least expect.” (Matthew 24:44) Our son didn't expect a visitation from the Messiah or to be taken to see a preview of the Heavenly Kingdom. The Holy Spirit is alerting, inspiring, and motivating us to make every effort to be found, pure, and spotless, and blameless and holy, knowing that at an unexpected time we will see our Savior face to face at the judgment seat. May we hear Him say, “Well done good and faithful servants, come and share in your Master’s joy in My Kingdom.” (Matthew 25:21)
I want to share with you an additional blessing, several years after this visitation, our son was divinely given special musical gifts to convey the beauty of the King and His Kingdom. As a composer, pianist, song writer, and singer, this song, Above and Beyond, was no doubt inspired by that divine appointment and revelation. May you be mightily blessed.
The Bible says that no eye has seen, no ear has heard, and no human mind has imagined all the glorious things the Almighty has prepared for those who love him (1 Corinthians 2:9). Yahshua (Jesus) died for us to forgive our sins and to redeem a righteous remnant who would live with him forever in the New Jerusalem. In truth, we will be living above and beyond with our God and Savior, the King of kings eternally. As the apostle Peter noted, “We are looking forward to a new heaven and a new earth, where righteousness dwells” (2 Peter 3:13). In the interim, and during our pilgrimage on earth, Yahshua (Jesus) is leading us out of the world and calling us upward to behold His glory as we prepare for the Kingdom of heaven. Our Savior longs to take His beloved redeemed higher and higher into His glorious presence, so that we might draw closer to him and capture a glimpse of what He has prepared for us. Indeed, if you seek Him, you will find him as long as you search for Him with all your heart (Jeremiah 29:13).
As John noted in Revelation, “Then I saw a new heaven and a new earth … I saw the Holy City, the New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared as a bride beautifully dressed for her husband. And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying, “Look! God’s dwelling place is now among the people, and he will dwell with them. They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and He will be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away” (Revelation 21:1-4). Accordingly, if we search for our Savior with our entire being and trust in his mighty plan of redemption we will not only find him but we will also reserve a place in his eternal kingdom – above and beyond. Remember, "Do not let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God; trust also in me. In my Father's house are many rooms; if it were not so, I would have told you. I am going there to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am” (John 14:1-3). Yes, “Fear not, daughter of Zion; behold, your King is coming” (John 12:15). Indeed, all who believe in our Messiah and Savior YAHshua (Jesus) will be there for the coming of the kingdom – yes, they will be there for the coming of the King as he takes all of us above and beyond!
