Will there be animals in heaven? I have been asked that question numerous times by children and adults. The first scripture that comes to mind is this one.
Revelation 19:11 (KJV)
Now I saw heaven opened, and behold, a white horse. And He who sat on him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness He judges and makes war.
“I saw heaven open and behold a white horse.”
So the answer to the question. Will there be animals in heaven? Is “yes” confirmed by scripture, but while that may answer that question, there’s
The follow-up question. “What about my dog/cat/bird?” Will they be in heaven?
Before I get into that, I would like to point out another interesting fact about animals. When God flooded the earth, they were on the ark with Noah, so God saw something worth saving. I believe that we have a God that loves us so much that if we need our pets in heaven, they will be there. I believe heaven/new earth has everything we need.
Luke 3:6 – ESV. and “all flesh” shall see the salvation of God.'”
In fact, “I BELIEVE” is key to what we desire.
Mark 9:23 (ESV)
And Jesus said to him, “‘If you can’! All things are possible for one who believes.”
Psalms 37:4 (ESV)
Delight yourself in the Lord, and he will give you the desires of your heart.
I believe in God for everything and the deepest desires in my heart; God knows them full well. I believe God’s children have many different (desires) passions. According to the Scriptures above, He (God) has promised to fill each of our desires. If you desire to see your pets again, I believe God is willing and ready for that to happen.
My personal experience with this topic is this.
One day, while I remembered a beloved family dog that passed away years ago, our new family dog walked up to me. I thought about what they would have been like together. Then I immediately thought no, that would never work because they both have Very dominant personalities.
Then The Holy Spirit spoke up and said that wouldn’t be the case on the new earth. Remember, on the New Earth; they’ll live in perfect peace. I know The Holy Spirit is never wrong, and I’m confident my pets will be there. I believe in God for everything, no matter how foolish it may seem to someone else.
Isaiah 11:6-9 – ESV The wolf shall dwell with the lamb, and the leopard shall lie down with the young goat, and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them. 7. The cow and the bear shall graze; their young shall lie down together; and the lion shall eat straw like the ox. 8. The nursing child shall play over the hole of the cobra, and the weaned child shall put his hand on the adder’s den. 9. They shall not hurt or destroy in all my holy mountain; for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the Lord as the waters cover the sea.
