THE PLACE OF YOUR ABODE

MAR. 19TH

TEXT: Hebrews 11:5-6King James Version (KJV) march 19th
5 By faith Enoch was translated that he should not see death; and was not found, because God had translated him: for before his translation he had this testimony, that he pleased God.
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.

The place of your dwelling is not by circumstances, it is by choice.

CONTEMPLATION
It is the will of God that we dwell in the riches of His glory, but it is the choice of a man that determines the place of his abode in the realms of life.  The word of God reveals the ideal place of our habitation from the declaration of the apostle Paul as found in Acts 17:28, but it is only when a soul is completely yielded to God that this declaration becomes applicable to him. There is a glory realm for you to live and walk in, but by the desires of the flesh, mankind, from Adam, have settled for less again and again. The power of sin is the only weapon capable of alienating man from the glory realm. Man becomes mentally retarded and spiritually disoriented once the fellowship with the Father is broken. Inspiration and extraordinary ideas are the fruits of a life in communion with divinity. This is the place where spiritually inclined people excel their contemporaries in their various fields. When a soul is confused, it is as a result of partial or permanent disconnection from the source of life.  It begins to function like an electronic device with contact problem. The yearning of the soul of man can only be truly satisfied by the help of the Holy Spirit, who the Lord Jesus promised us will teach us all things (see John 14:26). Under the Old Testament era, a few persons like Enoch, Abraham, Moses, Elijah, David and others, were able to walk in exceptional testimony, because they had an intimate walk with God.  If you are willing to go an extra mile in your thirst for God, you somewhere stumble into the glory that will change your story.

PRACTICAL ISSUES
Those who deliberately practice the presence of God activate the glory of God upon their souls.
Until you are able to hush your flesh, your spirit man cannot access the glorious voice of the Lord.
It is useless chasing after anointed men of God to lay hands on you when you lack the hunger to sustain the anointing in a place of personal communion with God.
