The Secret Place

On Wednesday the Lord told me twice about 'presence'. Then 

a little later in the day I read a quote from Smith Wigglesworth saying:-

"I want to live in constant conversation with God." 

I was reminded of Brother Lawrence who wrote "The practice of the

Presence of God."

These are things which we have heard teachings on for years and

have experienced too but I believe He desires 'much more' for our

relationship.

Then today the Lord walked through Psalm 91 with me, putting the cherry

on the top. Verse 1 talks about "He who dwells in the secret place" - 

that is in Him, in His presence. The blessings for remaining in Him are huge!

When the astronauts first went to the moon, they didn't just blast off

and move directly to the moon. Every ten minutes they had to adjust their

co-ordinates as they were out and often extremely out. Then they

were given a very long distance to land on the moon and when they did

land, it was right at the end of their allotted landing strip.

Even though we have given our lives over to Him and He came to 

live in us, as we focus on Him throughout the day we have to adjust our

thoughts, just like the astronauts, to check that we remain in the secret place.

Then we know that we are plugged in to the Master, to receive and

in turn be the vessel He can flow through, to love and encourage all we meet.

John 15 v 5

""I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me,

and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.""
