What greater gift could God give than the gift of Himself? Is this not the very definition of heaven? “In Your presence is fulness of joy.. (Psalm 16:11)”. What would His power, His glory, His majesty, His love, and even His sacrifice really mean if He kept Himself distant from us? My heart and soul could not survive it. But this is why He came – this is the expression and fulfillment of all He is to us – that we may draw near to Him and He to us, that we may be with Him forever.
Scriptures:
“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me that you also may be where I am... Father! You have given them to me, and I want them to be with me where I am, so that they may see my glory, the glory you gave me; for you loved me before the world was made. ” - John 14:3&17:24
“After that, we who are still alive will be gathered up with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And we will be with the Lord forever.” - 1st Thessalonians 4:17
“I heard a loud shout from the throne, saying, “Look, God’s home is now among his people! He will live with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them.” - Revelation 21:3
The Lord says to you:
“Beloved, I am nearer than your every breath and I will never turn away from you. I dwell in your heart but I desire to take full possession of it – I want all of your affection, I want to be your driving passion – I want all of you. Beloved, do not withhold any part of yourself from My Holy Spirit, for I long to fill you to overflowing. I know that you you both long for and fear this filling, this is because you do not yet know Me as you should. Trust yourself to Me. Open your heart to the fullness of My presence for there you will find unending love, inexpressible joy, and unshakeable peace. Then My glory will shine from you like the noonday sun.”
My Prayer: Precious Holy Spirit, my every corner of my heart and my life be open to You, flooded with the glory of Your presence. Lord, May I never try to hide anything from You (as if I could) and may I never withhold anything from You for You gave Yourself to me and You alone are worthy. I am Yours alone, my God!
