Heaven is Gods home

I want to go back to the topic of heaven. I want to look at the one that made heaven and that is God. One thing about God is he is holy and his holiness is such that he cannot allow any sin into where he is.
Is 57 15 For thus says the High and Lofty One
Who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
“I dwell in the high and holy place,
With him who has a contrite and humble spirit,
To revive the spirit of the humble,
And to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
16 For I will not contend forever,
Nor will I always be angry;
For the spirit would fail before Me,
And the souls which I have made.1
To be holy is to be separate. God is so holy he asked moses to take of his shoes when he walked on holy ground. Holy God also said if you see him in your sin you die. Jesus is the one that makes it even possible to see God in another body. Jesus being God is holy to as Peter said to go away for Peter was a sinful man. God said here he dwells on the humble people. In order to go to heaven you have to become nothing and place every ounce of trust in Jesus to take you to heaven.
Ps 20 6 Now I know that the Lord saves His anointed;
He will answer him from His holy heaven
With the saving strength of His right hand.2
God is in Holy Heaven
Mattew 11 25 At that time Jesus answered and said, “I thank You, Father, Lord of heaven and earth, that You have hidden these things from the wise and prudent and have revealed them to babes.
I see Jesus talking to the Lord of heaven or the king of heaven. Heaven is a holy place and all that enter must have perfect holiness. Jesus was the one that lived a life and paid for you to be holy. No purgatory is needed Jesus paid your total cost on the cross for every sin you will ever commit. No payment is required Jesus went to the cross and paid you full price and Praise God it was the full price to enter.
God is the one that fills heaven.
2 kings 8 30 And may You hear the supplication of Your servant and of Your people Israel, when they pray toward this place. Hear in heaven Your dwelling place; and when You hear, forgive.
Solomon said this in the time of the temple. God was making a place for dwelling in heaven. Nothing or place can contain the Lord God. He is everywhere but he is mainly in heaven. Heaven is all about God and not about us. It is a holy place and a place where sin never can be. It is a serious place to worship God who is holy. God is most Holy and all he does is holy. His Glory is his passion and if something bad happens in order to make God look good and famous so be it.
God is Heaven and I am hoping to be there soon
