TNP - ASK the TOUGH Questions.
David - Shared the reading from April 1 out of My Utmost for His Highest.
About intercession and worship.
…Are we living in such a relationship with others that we do the work of intercession as a result of being the children of GOD who are taught by His Spirit?
We should take a look at our circumstances.
Do crises that affect us or others in our home, business, country, or elsewhere seem to be crushing in on us?
Are we being pushed out of the presence of GOD and left with no time for Worship?
If so, we must put a stop to those distractions and get into such a living relationship with GOD that our relationship with others is maintained through the work of intercession, where God does his miracles.
Beware of getting ahead of GOD by your very desire to do His will. We can run ahead of Him in a thousand and one activities, becoming so burdened with people and problems that we do not worship GOD, and fail to intercede.
If a burden and its resulting pressure come upon us while we are not in an attitude of worship, it will only produce a hardness toward God, and despair in our own souls.
Yet God continually introduces us to people in whom we have no interest (naturally), and unless we are worshiping GOD the natural tendency is to be heartless toward them
We give them a quick verse of Scripture, like jabbing them with a spear, or leave them with a hurried, uncaring word of counsel before we go.
A heartless Christian must be a terrible grief to our LORD.
A heartless Christian must be a terrible grief to our LORD.
Are our lives in the proper place so that we may participate in the intercession of our LORD and the Holy Spirit.
