GOD IS NEAR

“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. 

SECURE YOUR HEART

A house built on the rock stands forever.
By faith, we begin to look not at our weakness but believe that we have the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. Righteousness is right standing before God. In His presence, your heart is secured.

SHOWER YOUR SPIRIT

Despite taking great care of our physical appearance, so many of us are discouraged, frustrated, fearful, angry, bitter and offended inside – and this is what shows through our words and behaviour, no matter how much we try and hide it. Why? Because our heart is not cleansed and our mind not refreshed.

CONVICTED BY YOUR CONSCIENCE

14 November 2024

Often, the loudest rebuke is the one from the inside of us. Because the motive of our heart cannot be concealed, and no one knows us better than we do ourselves. So, if we are convicted by our conscience, there is hope for us.
