“The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth. He fulfills the desires of those who fear him; he hears their cry and saves them.”

Psalm 145:18-19

Do you feel that God is far from you? God is omniscient, omnipresent and omnipotent.  He has not moved, He has not changed, and He is always saying something.  It is often our heart that is not in the right place and our heart is the meeting place of God. Our feelings and emotions are not where we meet Him. That is why it is dangerous to base our spiritual experiences on feelings and emotions, because they can change.

So where is God? The Bible tells us He is near to those who call on Him in truth.

 

How do we call on God in truth?  When we call from the heart. God understands the language of the heart, the thoughts of the heart, the cry of the heart. And when the desire of your heart is to seek His presence in every moment, you will discover that in every situation in life, God is near to you. 

WISDOM’S CALL

It is true that with time comes experience, but the divine wisdom of God knows no age, no race, no barrier or division. Today, make a decision to heed wisdom’s call, and this starts with the simple understanding that God is God and we should reverence Him.

WHAT BELONGS TO GOD

This instruction of Jesus reminds us that whatever we do in this earth, whatever we encounter and whatever comes our way, nothing should take our heart from God. Different responsibilities, challenges and pressures may fight for our attention but nothing should take the place of God in our heart, because our heart belongs to Him.

ALLOW THE HOLY SPIRIT TO LEAD YOU

When we pay attention to the Word of God, seeing it not as an ordinary word but the Word of God, then our mind will be renewed and our heart will begin to desire the things from above. We must be spiritually inclined to discover spiritual things.
