So far we have read that heaven is a real place and that God lives in heaven or the heavenly realm. But does God
live outside of heaven as well? Before we go any farther, let’s make sure we have a correct perception of God.
John 4:24 God is Spirit, and his worshippers must worship him in spirit and in truth.
This scripture tells us that God is a Spirit just like the Holy Spirit is a Spirit. Is God also omnipresent like the
Holy Spirit?
Jeremiah 23:23 “Am I only a God nearby,” declares the Lord, “and not a God far away? Can anyone hide in secret
places so that I cannot see him?” declares the Lord. “Do not I fill heaven and earth?” declares the Lord.
God, a Spirit, just like the Holy Spirit is omnipresent. They are both everywhere at all times. Therefore, God
is present everywhere in heaven and everywhere outside of heaven. He is everywhere. God does not
have a right hand or left hand or a big nose or a small nose. He is a spiritual being and not a person defined by a
throne. The scriptures in Heaven 2, 1 Kings 22:19 and Ephesians 1:20, that states God is on a throne or Jesus is
at the right hand of God are NOT LITERAL.
Therefore, God the Father is a Spirit that lives in heaven and outside of heaven, just like the
Holy Spirit. They live and dwell everywhere at all times. They are omnipresent.
Next week, we will read where heaven is located.
Thank you so much for reading. God bless.
