Word of the Day
Thank you Jesus for all your blessings! Praise the Lord!
We give you all the glory! You are worthy to be praised!
"...seek, and you will find..."(Luke 11:9).
SEEK IF YOU have not found. "You ask and do not receive, because you ask amiss..."(James 4:3).
If you ask for things from life instead of from God, "you ask amiss; that is, you ask out of your desire for self-fulfillment. The more you fulfill yourself the less you will seek God. "...seek, and you will find..." Get to work- narrow your focus and interests to this one thing. Have you ever sought God with your whole heart, or have you simply given Him a feeble cry after some emotionally painful experience? "...seek [focus,] and you will find..."
"Ho! Everyone who thirsts, come to the waters..."(Isaiah 55:1). Are you thirsty, or complacent and indifferent-so satisfied with your own experience that you want nothing more of God? Experience is a doorway, not a final goal. Beware of building your faith on experience, or your life will not ring true and will only sound the note of a critical spirit. Remember that you can never give another person what you have found, but you can cause him to have a desire for it.
"...knock, and it will be opened to you"(Luke 11:9). "Draw near to God..."(James 4:8). Knock-the door is closed, and your heartbeat races as you knock. "Cleanse your hands..."(4:8). Knock a bit louder- you begin to find that you are dirty. "...purify your hearts..."(4:8). It is becoming even more personal- you are desperate and serious now- you will do anything. "Lament..."(4:9). Have you ever lamented, expressing your sorrow before God for the condition of your inner life? There is no thread of self-pity left, only the heart rendering difficulty and amazement which comes from seeing what kind of person you really are. "Humble yourselves..."(4:10). It is a humbling experience to knock at God's door- you have to knock with the crucified thief. "...to him who knocks it will be opened" (Luke 11:10).

So please pray, Lord Jesus, I accept that you were born of a virgin, died on the cross and shed your blood for my sins to be forgiven and rose again to be Lord and King. I repent of my sins and ask that you come into my life and be Lord and Savior and live in my heart.
Amen

Get in a good Holy Spirit filled church and come to a place of worship with Him. If you just said this prayer, please send us an email, we would love to know.
