David wrote:
So homeless, hungry and thirsty in the desert and He led them to a place to live. Our souls need a place where we're at rest; a place where we can lay down our worries, weariness and frustrations.
Jesus recognized that our souls need a place to rest and call home. He said:Note that he doesn't invite you as a visitor but as a family member, enjoying all the benefits that go with it. So how do you enter into this dwelling place? If someone gave you a beautiful home how would you take possession of it? You'd make sure the giver was serious, inspect the necessary paperwork (with your lawyer) then move in and enjoy it.
Is the Lord serious when he says 'Live in Me'? Yes. If you have prayed the sinners' prayer and been baptized, your name is on the required biblical paperwork. So you talk to a good Jewish lawyer whose name is "Jesus Christ". H will then hand you the key's and by faith you pack yourself up and move in today! Not baptized yet - arrange a pre-lease agreement! Poet S.T. Coleridge wrote, 'Faith is an affirmation, and an act, that bids eternal truth to be present fact.' Turn your faith into 'present fact' and declare, 'The Lord in now my permanent, secure, dwelling place.' Repeat it as often as needed, Psalm 90:1 is a promise to be claimed!
