Hag For thus says the LORD of hosts; Yet once, it is a little while, and I will shake the heavens, and the earth, and the sea, and the dry land. Mk And straightway coming up out of the water, he saw the heavens opened, and the Spirit like a dove descending upon him. There are 3 heavens.
We see Apostle Paul saying that he knew a man in Christ caught up in the third heaven. It is where birds and clouds are. Deut The LORD shall open unto thee his good treasure, the heaven to give the rain unto thy land in his season. Judges LORD, when you went out of Seir, when you marched out of the field of Edom, the earth trembled, and the heavens dropped, the clouds also dropped water. Acts Nevertheless he left not himself without witness, in that he did good, and gave us rain from heaven, and fruitful seasons, filling our hearts with food and gladness.
Deut who has gone and served other gods, and worshipped them, either the sun, or moon, or any of the host of heaven, which I have not commanded. Psalms , 6 In the heavens he has pitched a tent for the sun. Its rising is from one end of the heaven and its circuit to the other end.
Jer and they shall spread them before the sun, and the moon, and all the host of heaven, whom they have loved, and whom they have served. Isa for the stars of heaven and the constellations thereof shall not give their light: the sun shall be darkened in his going forth and the moon shall not cause her light to shine. We are now waiting on the final two blood moons that I discuss in depth in my book Four Blood Moons.
America is fascinated by the supernatural. While our modern society will devour books and movies about ghosts and witches in droves, the most supernatural book in the universe is the Word of God. From the very first word in Genesis, the genius of God explodes as the universe is created from a handful of dirt. God spoke four words and light forever conquered darkness.
He flung the glittering stars like diamonds against the black velvet of the night to reflect His glory. The sun, the moon and the stars are celestial evangelists who travel across the heavens declaring His greatness! I believe in angels because the Word of God says they are real. What is an angel?
Angels are created beings Colossians They have superior knowledge, and they are without number. Psalms says He will give his angels charge over you to keep you in all your ways. Every Believer has the right to believe that two angels have been sent from heaven to protect and defend you at all times. Psalms 34 tells us that the angels of the Lord encamp round about those who fear him.
And these angels deliver him from evil. Encamp literally means to surround. So if you are a Believer, then angels surround and protect you everywhere you go. Angels are innumerable, invisible and invincible. When you give your heart to Christ, you are under the protection of Almighty God and his angels.

In writing this letter most scholars agree that Paul is talking about himself. What he mentions here is the idea of a third heaven. If you are going to apply simple logic, if there is a third heaven, then there must be a first and second one as well.
I am going to use these terms today but simply as a means of distinction. In this instance, the Psalmist is using the word heavens, but he is referring to the sky or the atmosphere around us. The glory of God is revealed in the skies and the clouds that we see. If you want to label this, then consider this the first heaven. We find another example of this first heaven in the book of James.
He prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the land for three and a half years. If the atmosphere and the sky are the first heaven , then you could consider the stars and galaxy the second heaven.
Again as a reminder, the Bible does not use this term; I am just using it as a term of clarification or distinction. If the first heaven can include what we can see, then the second heaven begins to go beyond what we can see. In Hebrews, we see a reference to our Savior who passed through the heavens when he ascended.
Here are two other mentions of this. These are all pictures and images of heaven where God reigns and rules. This is the heaven you typically think about when you think about the presence of God. The other way of looking at this is by considering the heaven to come. Since heaven will eventually be our eternal home, how many of those heavens are there?
Or is it just one place?
