Today’s Eternal Promise

“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 21:4 (NIV)

Three Unshakable Truths for Your Pain

1️⃣ YOUR TEARS ARE COUNTED (“wipe every tear”)

• Not one is wasted (Psalm 56:8)
• Each will be redeemed with interest

2️⃣ YOUR PAIN HAS AN EXPIRATION DATE (“no more… pain”)

• This is temporary; that is eternal
• Like a mother’s labor, agony with purpose

3️⃣ YOUR STORY GETS A GLORIOUS SEQUEL (“new order comes”)

• The best is literally yet to come
• Your current chapter isn’t the final page

How to Live Until Then

• Grieve with hope (1 Thessalonians 4:13)
• Let others see your raw faith — their hope depends on it
• Whisper to your wounds: “This isn’t the end”

Prayer of Held-Breakthrough

Faithful Father,
You see the tears I hide from the world.

• Hold my shaking hands when the grief tsunami hits
• Mark my calendar with this promise: “Appointment with Joy – Coming Soon”
• Make me a wounded healer for others in the storm

Until the day of no more, let my life declare:
💎 “If not now, then in glory”
💎 “If not here, then in Home”
💎 “If not me, then my children”

Even so, come Lord Jesus.

🔥 Hope-Builder Challenge:

1. Text someone grieving: “Revelation 21:4 is true for your story”
2. Create a “Tear Bottle Memorial” — Write current pains on paper, seal them with “God’s Promise”

“Our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all.” (2 Corinthians 4:17)
