This verse(s) is one of my favs
Revelation 21:1-4
1 And I saw a new heaven and a new earth; for the former heaven and the former earth had passed away, and the sea is no more. 2 I saw also the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of heaven from God and prepared as a bride adorned for her husband. 3 With that I heard a loud voice from the throne say: “Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his peoples. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away.”

Ladybug, that is my favorite one too in the book of Revelation....everytime I read it, I can almost see the Paradise earth before my eyes, and all of God's promises taking hold in our lives.........it gives me great joy.

I have several, just to skim through Revelations...
Rev 2:19 Jesus says "I know your deeds and your love and faith and ministry and endurance, and that your deeds of late are more than those formerly." (it was very hard to not put ministry in all capitals)
Rev 4:11 "You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power because you created all things and because of your will they existed and were created."
Jehovah is the creator, everything else including Jesus was created.
Rev 5:9,10 ...and with your blood you bought persons for God out of every tribe and tongue and people and nations (10) and you made them to be a kingdom and priests to our God and they are to rule as kings over the earth.
The 144,000 anointed class. Also Rev 14:1 & 20:4...And they came to life and ruled as kings with the Christ for a thousand years.
Rev 12:12 ...Woe for the earth and for the sea because the Devil has come down to you, having great anger, knowing he has a short period of time.
This helps us understand why all the bad things are happening now.
Rev 21:4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away. Paradise!
Rev 22:17 And the spirit and the bride keep on saying "Come! And let anyone hearing say: Come! And let anyone thirsting come; let anyone that wishes take life's water free.
Just beautiful. What a loving invitation.
There are others too but it's hard to mention those without getting deep into the symbolic meaning. Locust, horses prepared for battle with scorpians tail... Good stuff :)

Among my many favorites is Revelation 22:16, which seems to say that Jesus' Dad was neither Joseph nor God:
22:16 "I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star."

I enjoy the entire book of Revelation. One of the many favorite verses I have in Revelation is
Revelation 4: 11 (New World Translation) "You are worthy, Jehovah, even our God, to receive the glory and the honor and the power, because you created all things, and because of your will they existed and were created."
I also enjoy Revelation 21: 1-4. I use this in my door to door ministry.

Thin_ when Jesus calls himself the root of David, he's pointing out his ancestor King David.
I like the verses you mentioned and use them often in the Ministry.

Its my favourite as well as it promises an end to death and pain. Never to be parted from loved ones is a wonderful hope we have. I just hope to be among the great crowd to see it.

Revelation 3:20 (NASB) - "Behold, I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in to him and eat with him, and He with me."
