Obsess Yourself with Heaven 

Amen! It’s a lesson I’ve learned over the years (I’m 64). I am Roman Catholic, born and raised. I accepted Jesus as my Lord and Savior in Kansas City, Kansas at an international Charismatic convention back in February of 1978. However, it’s taken me this long to learn this valuable lesson. THIS WORLD IS NOT OUR HOME! Jesus tells us that we are meant for so much more! HE is where our true comfort lies, where we find TRUE peace and contentment that really does go beyond ALL understanding. But there will always be a longing in our hearts as we journey in this life. Nothing in this world will ever satisfy this longing. We will not be “settled” until we are finally at Home in Heaven finally in God’s Holy Presence forever. Thank you, dearest Max Lucado, for saying “yes” to God’s call on your life. You have helped keep this child of God on the path toward Heaven.

Thank you pastor for a good reminder, this is not our home! Thank God He is waiting for us Prodigals to come back to our heaven relationship with Him!

AMEN MY BROTHER!!! MY MUM AND PA; WHEN THEY HAD PASSED ON MADE SURE THAT WE WOULD PLACE A DESSERT FORK CRADDLED IN EACH OF THEIR HANDS; KNOWING THAT THE BEST IS YET TO COME!!! SEE YOU AT THE FEAST!!! IN KING JESUS' HOLY NAME AMEN!!! I LOVE YOUR BOOKS TOO I THINK I HAVE READ MOST OFTHEM!!! ETERNAL LOVE AND DEEP RIVERS OF PLESSINGS FOREVER AND EVER AMEN

Please pray I will not turn bitter, angry or ugly in my faith towards the end, Amen.

Oh Max!!!! I met you once in NYC and asked “How I could pray for YOU” and you were so gracious!! You just GET IT-ALL of it!! ALL the various ways & mediums to tell the world about Jesus!! And my spirit resonates with your Holy Spirit Heart!! THIS MESSAGE spoke to me so deeply because I’ve been imagining my ‘Treehouse’ in heaven for years!!! I have one foot in this world running my race and one in heaven walking around-praising Jesus with all the saints❤🎉❤Most Pastors hear my heart on heaven and watching for Jesus and they just smile… THANK YOU for this message Max❤🎉❤ See you one day in the new neighbourhood!!💖🙌🙌🙌🤩💖

What a blessing to know where we are going!! Our forever Home with CHRIST JESUS!!! HALLELUJAH👏🏻

Thank you Pastor. This message helps to focus on heaven and not the evil of this world.

I miss your videos posted in the comfort of your home. During the days of covid your time and effort spent making these videos carried me at times. God bless you Lucado and always appreciate the truth you preach!

To receive the Heavenly price is my eternal joy! Kamshia Jesus Christ = Father = Holy Spirit! I’m a citizen of Christ ✝️! Amen! O I yearn for Heaven so badly to see Jesus! No more suffering, worries nor pain; just to be more like Jesus >>> me. Hallelujah! Praise only Thee! Love ✝️ = Ai Di!

Amen God has us in His hands!! Bless Your children I ask the Father in Jesus Name.

Thank you, Max. God bless you.

Thankyou Max for your words of comfort,I will keep my mind on Heavenly things instead of worrying about things here on earth .

AMEN AND AMEN

I pray that I can do this. I tend to focus on the here and now and struggle to focus on the future despite the fact that I have bulletproof faith in God.

Thank you Max I was waiting for my heavenly home since many years but now it's burning in my heart to see Jesus ! All the glory to our Savior King Jesus ! Shalom !

Thank you Pstr Max! Love from the Philippines 💙

Amen to what you said there’s more to look forward to, to keep our eyes fixed on Jesus and watch to come❤

Thanks for the encouraging words! Was having a bout of depression! And Your message really lifted me up.

Your books a true works of the Holy Spirit, i am from Portugal, and i got two of your books. And i have already cried sometimes. God Bless You In Jesus Name! Amen!

Thanks very much!!! Wow I need to study and meditate on my Heavenly home...priceless!!!

I really needed this. I truely feel that's why no matter how happy you are there is always something missing. It's because we will never be fully happy because we long to be home in heaven with our heavenly father.

WOW! What a lovely analogy of HEAVEN.

Amen

I love Max Lucado. Good word Max. May God continue to bless you and your family. Im

I just love listening to you. I always feel hope and love afterwards. Thank you.

Hallelujah!!! Hallelujah!!!

Yessssssssss Sir 🥊🥊💯 Heaven is the goal👼😇❣️

2:13 "fatalistic frets of hope" I thought this was such an interesting and illustrative phrase. I sat with it for a moment to bring myself to what I thought Mr. Lucado meant by it as the combination of words were counter-my-intuitive. How keen it is to notice human beings' tendency to pretend to hope! My eyes are surely lifted by pastor Max's word today. Thank you, my Lord Jesus!

Just stumbled across this yesterday by sheer chance while going thru random videos, and it was EXACTLY the sort of thing God wanted me to hear for the issues I’m going through. Wish I’d commented then, honestly, but life sadly got in the way.

Bless you Max and thank you for your teaching.

THANK YOU SO MUCH MR. LUCADO: I REALY APRÉCIATE E EACH OF YOUR MESSAGES. It’s SO WONDERFUL TO BE ABLE TO HAVE THE HONOR TO KNOW ABOUT YOU. MY HOLY HEAVENLY LORD AND FATHER BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY FOREVER. THANKS FOR SHARING ALL YOUR KNOWLEDGE THAT MY DIVINE LORD AND FATHER GAVE YOU. MY APPRECIATION TO BE FOREVER TO YOU. BLESSINGS AND GRATITUDE. SINCERELY.: MARIE TORRES. FROM: SAN ANTONIO, TEXAS.

Pastor Max, thank you so very much. Nothing like a refresher course to help with my vision. Love the way your videos pop up when they are needed the most.

Thank you for such a beautiful and inspirational story!

Thank you…I needed this reminder! Heaven is my favorite subject and I haven’t been thinking about it as much lately. I’ve been worried too much and this is what will help, I know! 💛

Amen. Man Max your videos cheer me up so much when I need it. Especially this one. I have so much to look forward to. Don't let me forget that!.😁

❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I think about heaven all the time but the knowledge we want is hid from us..John says it does not yet appear what we shall be so its just a guess and Ive never seen my heavenly home not even a picture, I have no idea what my parents do up there...Not enough knowledge

Thank you. God bless you.😊❤🙏

I sure am!!! Come Lord Jesus come 🙌🏼📖🙌🏼

Pastor Max, I so appreciate you!

I hope to be there soon.

🙌❤️❤️

I am read the Book ' Walking with the Savior ' of Max Lucado 🙏 Its a blessing book

Thank you, Max, a good reminder of where we are going. Into our eternal home ! Shalom !

Wonderful Message! Thank you very much. Greetings and blessings from Bogotá, Colombia.

If we don't get obsessed with heaven we may not end up there.

Hi Max....Greeting from Cairo, Egypt

Max, thank you! I must daily practice this and do so intentionally. I'm so blessed. I'm about to start a new chapter everyone keeps telling me. I'm retiring on Jan. 31st. I hope I use my time to focus more on Jesus and heaven. And of course, listening more to Max!

Yay! I got to listen to an awesome video on my salvation anniversary! Thank you Max Lucado from a fellow San Antonian.

Wow. Thank you for this exhortation.

🙇‍♀️🕊✝️👑🙏

❤🙌🕊️🌿✝️♥️

Great message as usual. You mentioned thinking about our life in heaven and our eternal body. Can you provide references to what our eternal body will be like? I am aware of Jesus appearing to the 2 disciples who didn’t recognize Him at first. Then when He was ready, he revealed Himself. I know He appeared wherever He wanted to, so that gives some sense of what we will be like. I know that we will rule and reign with Him in the millennium. But are there other references?

Scrolling down youtube while you were speaking then you said pigeons then I saw a video about pigeon eggs 🤔🕊️

Dear pastor i stand in need of prayers.
