Based on Psalm 65
God will be worshipped in New Jerusalem by people from all over the world. We are struggling with iniquity - sinful attitudes - but God will get all our imperfections out of us, the easy way or the hard way.
It is such a privilege to be chosen by God, - he chooses those that have faith - we have a perfect eternity to look forward to.
God will show us awe-inspiring things, everyone's confidence comes from God, he allows even those who do not have faith to have confidence in many things.
God keeps the mountains stable, he stops storms from lasting forever, he pacifies the masses, he colours the sky at dawn and dusk in a way that causes everyone on earth to rejoice.
God makes the world habitable with rain and enables crops to grow so people can survive; animals exist and survive because of God and he allows people to depend on them for their livelihood. There is beauty and plenty in the world by nature, that is, by God's direct intervention and initiative.
But there is also evil and famine because of people and Satan; what good do we do to the world? If there were not a good God we would all be dead by now.
Creation shows the reality and also the goodness and extravagance of God; of course you can trust him.
