TOPIC: COME CLOSE
Scripture: He will come close to you… James 4:8 (AMPC)
Not everyone is willing to pay the price
required to be close to God. Not willing to
Simply take the time required or make the
investments needed for spiritual growth.
God doesn’t ask for all of our tinme. He
certainly wants us to do things we don’t
consider “spiritual.” He designed us with
bodies, souls (minds, wills, and emotions),
and spirits, and He expects us to take care
of all these areas.
Exercising our bodies and caring for our souls takes time and effort. Our emotions need to be ministered to; we need to have fun and be entertained, and we need to enjoy being with other people. Our minds need to grow and be renewed daily. In addition, vwe have a spiritual nature that needs attention. To stay balanced and healthy, we must take time to take care of our entire being.
I believe the whole issue of intimacy with
God is a nmatter of time. We say we don’t
have time to seek God, but the truth is that
we take time to do the things that are most
important to us. Even though we all have
to fight distractions every day, if knowing
God and hearing from Him is important to
us then we will find time to do it. Don’t try
to work God into your schedule, but instead
work your schedule around time with Him.
Getting to know God is a long-term
investment, so don’t get discouraged if you
don’t get instant results. Be determined to
honor Him with your time and you will reap
the benefits.
Prayer Starter: Lord, draw me closer to You
every day. Heal my emotions and help me
be healthier in every area of my life, amen
