MY FRIENDS, LISTEN AND LOOK IN THE MIDST OF THE NOISE AS YOU SEEK THE PRESENCE OF GOD!

My friends “be confident of this very thing, that He who has begun a good work in you will complete it until the day of Jesus Christ.” Phil 1:6 (NKJV)  As a Child of God, this Journey He has placed us on probably started years ago, but at times it seems as we move forward two steps in our Christian walk, we retreat five steps backward, which gives the impression in one’s mind that our spiritual growth is always moving in the opposite direction from where we started.

But today I need you to listen and look in the midst of the noise of your daily life and seek the presence of God as you ask yourself do I truly love God and if so do my daily action demonstrate that love? And if your answer is yes then Paul tells us “those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose….” Romans 8:28-30 (NKJV)

“All things work together for good” but only if we “Set our mind on things above, not on earthly things.” Col. 3:2 (NIV) Things above where a family union will take place soon that I hope we are all making plans of attending.

I call it family union simply because a reunion is the process of re-uniting, where as a union is more in the presence because once a bond is created that union forever exist and we are never separated. So by having such a union God cannot be a distance God, or a God that we have to wonder if He is a part of our life regardless of  the times He may conceal our request or the sound of His voice in order to strengthen our faith.

But once that bond is formed, we then have developed a togetherness that will carry us throughout the ceaseless ages of eternity. In addition, a bond or union will hold under all circumstances and situations therefore being in God’s presence tells us that the Lord, He is the One who [goes before each of us.] He will be with [us], He will not leave [us] nor forsake [us, so] do not fear nor be dismayed.” Deu. 31:6 (NKJV)

That union holds true also with our love one’s who have fallen asleep in God, because as a Child of God we should not be “ignorant, concerning those who have fallen asleep, lest [we] sorrow as others who have no hope.

So a united bond was set while they were with us which allows them to be forever in our presence and with that hope and promise from our Savior what we look for is just a continuation of the union and togetherness that we feel from within for God and family, minis sin and the god of this world that continues to tell God’s chosen that his way is what we seek.

My friends our struggle with sin will never be over until God says “it is finished.” We often speak about sin in the past tense but Behold, [we were] shaped in iniquity; and in sin did our mother’s conceive each of us.” Ps. 51:5 (KJV)

In addition, sin is a part of our DNA, but the good news is, the transforming blood of Christ who died at Calvary, which because of the shedding of His blood, a transfusion will take place along with a continuous flow that will keep us focused on our journey to the promise land, if we will listen and look in the midst of the noise as we seek the presence of God and life eternal!

So friends stay focused, remain faithful, love one another and endure till the end and never forget to STUDY&PRAY
