List by Ami Hendrickson
The book of Revelation contains so many promises and so much hope for our future — a future filled with the unimaginable joys of new beginnings!
God will bless each believer with a new name
Revelation 2:17
He who has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit says to the assemblies. To him who overcomes, to him I will give of the hidden manna, and I will give him a white stone, and on the stone a new name written which no one knows but he who receives it.
A special blessing awaits the faithful
Revelation 3:11-12
I am coming quickly! Hold firmly that which you have, so that no one takes your crown. He who overcomes, I will make him a pillar in the temple of my God, and he will go out from there no more. I will write on him the name of my God and the name of the city of my God, the new Jerusalem, which comes down out of heaven from my God, and my own new name.
New music will fill heaven

They sing a new song before the throne, and before the four living creatures and the elders. No one could learn the song except the one hundred forty-four thousand, those who had been redeemed out of the earth.
Heaven and earth will be made new
Revelation 21:1
I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth have passed away, and the sea is no more.
God Himself will live with us
Revelation 21:2-3
I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God, prepared like a bride adorned for her husband. I heard a loud voice out of heaven saying, “Behold, God’s dwelling is with people, and he will dwell with them, and they will be his people, and God himself will be with them as their God.
Pain will be a thing of the past
