Go Back To The Secret Place
“Everything in your life will try to keep you away from from ‘The Secret Place’ – when that happens you will begin to fall in other areas and you ask yourself ‘Why is it such a battle'”
The secret place is where you meet with God to get instruction..correction…cleansing..loving and being built up for the future. Your secret place can be anywhere but it has to be somewhere, it can be set to anytime but it has to be sometime that is set. It has to be the most important appointment in your day.
Jesus is our example. He often rose before the day breaks to pray knowing what awaits Him. He makes deposits in the early mornings to be able to make withdrawals later in the day. Children of God without deposits made in “the secret place”, what would you have to draw on? You’ll work harder and harder and less to show for it, because you are operating in your own strength. But after you’ve prayed you will struggle less and accomplish more because you are operating in HIS strength.
“He wakens me morning by morning, wakens my ear to listen like one being instructed” Isaiah 50:4
Do not get too involved in the work of the Lord that you neglect the Lord of the work. That is probably why Paul prayed, “I want to know Christ—yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him ….” Philippians 3:10
Nothing can be born without intimacy. Everything you really want to become is in God’s presence. Have you been there today?
Prayer: Father, if there is any area in my life that have been blind to knowing the essence of Your Presence take it away from me Lord. Open my heart to knowing Your will for me on daily basis.

About My Father’s Business
About My Father’s Business
Luke 2:49 “Why were you searching for me? He asked. Didn’t you know I had to be in my Father’s house?”
Friends, there’s an account in the book of Luke about when Jesus and his parents went to Jerusalem for a feast. The bible says that at a point Joseph and Mary couldn’t find Jesus but finally found him in the temple. When they tried to scold him he told them to their astonishment that he was about his Father’s business.
As joint heirs with Christ, there is need for us to be kingdom-minded. The bible tells us to set our affections on heavenly things. Matthew 6:19-20 “Do not store up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and vermin destroy, and where thieves break in and steal. But store up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor vermin will destroy, and where thieves do not break through in and steal”
It is the things we do in God’s kingdom that REALLY matters. “Seek ye first the kingdom of God and its righteousness and all other things will be added unto you” Soul-winning is the heartbeat of God. Jesus said “feed my sheep”.
On this glorious day that the Lord has made, ask yourselves the following question today:
AM I A BUSY-BODY IN OTHER PEOPLE’S MATTER OR AM I ABOUT MY FATHER’S BUSINESS?
God knows exactly where the shoe pinches. As you take care of God’s business, he’ll take care of yours!
I pray in the mighty name of Jesus that God will perfect ALL that concerns you. Be blessed in Jesus’ mighty name!
Have a glorious week!
