As we come into our "secret place" with the Lord, we can
be sure that He is near to all who call upon Him, who call upon Him in
Truth. As we draw near to Him, He draws near to us. The Lord is drawing
the hearts of His people to pray with a new fervor and commitment, and learn to
pray well. He
invites us to pray to Him in secret and promises manifested rewards. We
will discover Him as our Refuge and Strength, a very present Help in time of
need. We will know Him as we pray. Psalm 9:9-10 says that "those who know
you will put their trust in You. For you oh Lord have not forsaken those who
seek You." As we seek Him in the secret place we will find Him.
As we
yield to His Word, we will be transformed. We may come into the secret
place weighed down by sin, but we can receive forgiveness, cleansing and
freedom! In the Secret Place an amazing exchange occurs....... Our
weakness, swallowed by His strength. Our anxiety and fear exchanged for
His joy. Don't be anxious about anything, pray about everything, with much
thanksgiving!. As we renew our minds to the truth of His Word, our perspective
becomes clear instead of foggy. In His presence is fullness of joy. As we
wait upon Him, He is our All in All, the All Sufficient One who loves us with
an everlasting love. In the secret place the Holy Spirit is our personal
Teacher in prayer.
Prayer is the pipeline that brings God's will to this
earth and in the secret place He will teach us to pray His very will into
existence All the angels are on alert waiting for the prayers of the saints so
that the Father can give them their assignments to fulfill His purposes.
. You can be sure He is attentive to your cry, He hears when you call.
M66 Matthew 6:6.
Even though I grew up in church I never really was CLOSE to Christ. I prayed, read my bible...but it wasn't until my 30's when I realized He could be my best friend! It sadly took devastation to draw me close to Him, but I will never look back and cringe no longer. He has brought me and my family through so much! I love Him so and I am so glad that Jesus is close by me everyday and that He calls me friend as I also call Him friend.
