"We can live in Heaven while we are on Earth, because of the Birth of Jesus on this Earth"
by Dr. John Williams

Experiencing Heaven on Earth is not one's imagination, just a feeling or a myth. It is a reality that everyone can experience in a real way with Joy, Excitement and Thrill!  Jesus came to establish His Kingdom upon this earth 2000 years ago.  Jesus did not fail in this Mission.  He left the glory in Heaven, took the form of a Human Being and was born in the manger of Bethlehem 2000 years ago. As we sing in a song, "Down from the glory...". Bible says that the Son of God became the Son of man so that sons of men can become the sons of God. 

During the ministry of Jesus Christ upon this earth, everything He did was naturally supernatural and supernaturally natural. He was a miracle worker and there were supernatural signs and wonders in His ministry from the beginning to the end.  What was naturally not possible was possible for the Lord Jesus Christ.

The birth of Jesus Christ, as a son of virgin Mary was a miracle.  The wisdom that was exhibited in His discourse with the elders was amazing and incredible. When He took water baptism in Jordan at the age of 12 by John, the Baptist, the Holy Spirit descending and resting in the form of a dove upon his head was something supernatural.  The voice that came from heaven at that time proclaiming that Jesus was the beloved son of God and in whom he was well pleased was again something heavenly and supernatural.  What happened during the three and a half years of ministry of Jesus Christ, upon this earth, could not be described completely in spite of the fact that 4 gospel writers simultaneously wrote what all they saw, heard and witnessed personally.

• Jesus opened the eyes of the blind men

• Jesus opened the ears of deaf men.

• Jesus made the lame to walk

• Jesus cast the demons out of those who were possessed

• Jesus blessed the two fishes and five loaves of bread, multiplied it and fed 5000 men and others

• Jesus walked on water when His disciples were going in a ship

• Jesus raised Lazarus from the grave 3 days after he was buried

• Jesus changed water into wine at a wedding

• Jesus did so much in such a short time of three and a half years which the disciples say that all the books in this world will not hold, if anyone were to write them down.

The reasons why Jesus came to the earth in the form of a man can be summarized as follows:

• To save the sinners

• To establish His Kingdom upon this earth

• To die on the cross so that people can have an eternal life

• To heal the sick, cast the demons and open the blind eyes

• To establish peace on earth

• To make a way for the man to have eternal life through his death on the cross

A special event that occurred during the life of Jesus is worth mentioning to get the main point of this article across into the minds of the people. 

When Jesus took 3 Disciples with him to the top of a mountain, He revealed to his disciples a little bit of heaven's glory, when His face became bright as sun and his raiment became white as light.  Moses and Elijah descended from heaven, a voice came from heaven saying about Jesus that he was God's beloved son and in whom, he was well pleased.  To summarize the series of events that took place at the top of the mountain, literally the heaven came down and the glory filled in the space. When the disciples witnessed the glory of God overshadowing all of them, they fell into a trance and later on when they got up they told Jesus that it would be nice to pitch 3 tents there, one for him, one for Elijah and one for Moses.  They said more or less even just lying on the grass at the top of the mountain would be great for them rather than going down back to the earth.

Jesus came into this world, to literally transform earth into heaven, or in other words he made it possible for anyone on this planet earth to trade their sorrow for joy; worry for peace; death for eternal life; earthly life for heavenly life.  This Christmas message is continuously preached on this earth through out the world, 24 hours a day, and the option is ours to believe on the Lord Jesus Christ and be saved. It is proclaimed in the Gospel that the Kingdom of God has come when Jesus was ministering on this earth.  Therefore, it is possible for everyone on this earth  to slip into God's kingdom which overlays the kingdom of this earth, in spirit and literally enjoy heaven on earth while we are still in the human form surrounded by the problems of this world. In a way we can be in a state of Trance consciously while going about our daily tasks,  enjoying the presence of God and fellowshipping with them, forgetting all the worries of this world!

If we do not have peace, joy, divine health, divine prosperity etc., believe and ask Jesus for it and He will give it to you right away.  At the same time examine and see if there is any reason why you are not enjoying all these divine heavenly and spiritual blessings in your life. If the Holy Spirit convicts you of some impediment in your life which is preventing these blessing to flow in your life fluently, acknowledge the same to the Lord and turn away from the wicked way and diligently follow His ways to enjoy fully all the blessings that God has in store for you to appropriate!
