God’s Promises to me

About longing for Heaven

Psalms 73:25-26 

25 Whom have I in heaven but you? And earth has nothing I desire besides you.

26 My flesh and my heart may fail, but God is the strength of my heart and my portion forever.

John 14:2-3  

2 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.

3 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.

1 Corinthians 2:9  

However, as it is written: “No eye has seen, no ear has heard, no mind has conceived what God has prepared for those who love him”—

About struggling with Worldliness

Colossians 3:2-3 

2 Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.

3 For you died, and your life is now hidden with Christ in God.

James 4:4  

You adulterous people, don't you know that friendship with the world is hatred toward God? Anyone who chooses to be a friend of the world becomes an enemy of God.

1 John 2:15-17  

15 Do not love the world or anything in the world. If anyone loves the world, the love of the Father is not in him.

16  For everything in the world—the cravings of sinful man, the lust of his eyes and the boasting of what he has and does—comes not from the Father but from the world.

17 The world and its desires pass away, but the man who does the will of God lives forever.
