Abide in Me

abide in me

Believing that Messiah must abide in our hearts, and not
understanding that WE are the ones who must abide in HIM first. (Ie:
Ask Jesus into your heart, to abide in you to be saved. Did you know
this concept is not even in the Bible.) Don't misunderstand, there is
nothing wrong with asking Jesus Christ to come  into our lives... we should do
that. But we are a selfish people and need to understand that we
must be the ones who seek Him.

Read this scripture with this understanding. He is not in us until we
are first in Him.
John 15:2-11

Every branch in Me that does not bear fruit, He takes away; and
every branch that bears fruit, He prunes it so that it may bear more
fruit. You are already clean BECAUSE OF THE WORD which I have
spoken to you. Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear
fruit of itself unless it abides in the vine, so neither can you unless
you abide in Me. I am the vine, you are the branches; he who abides
in Me and I in him, he bears much fruit, for apart from Me you can do
nothing. If anyone does not abide in Me, he is thrown away as a
branch and dries up; and they gather them, and cast them into the
fire and they are burned. If you abide in Me, AND MY WORDS ABIDE
IN YOU, ask whatever you wish, and it will be done for you. My
Father is glorified by this, that you bear much fruit, and so PROVE
TO BE MY DISCIPLES (a disciple is a student of the Word) Just as
the Father has loved Me, I have also loved you; abide in My love. If
you keep My commandments, you will abide in My love; just as I
have kept My Father's commandments and abide in His love. These
things I have spoken to you so that My joy may be in you, and that
your joy may be made full.

Why did God love David?

Acts 13:22
After He had removed him, He raised up David to be their king,
concerning whom He also testified and said, 'I have found David the
son of Jesse, a man after My heart , who will do all My will.'
...Because he was after God's own heart. So don't just ask Jesus
into your heart, tell the Father that you want to be let into HIS heart
and seek to do His will. Then the Father and the Son will make their
home in you.

John 14:23-24
Jesus answered and said to him, "If anyone loves Me, he will keep
My word; and My Father will love him, and We will come to him and
make Our abode with him. He who does not love Me does not keep
My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine, but the Father's

who sent Me."

His Channels

Rom.1:20 For ever since the world was created, people have seen the earth and sky. Through everything God made, they can clearly see his invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature. So they have no excuse for not knowing God [with emphasis]. So far we have examined three channels God uses to speak to us. If you are not reading your Bible consistently, if you are not listening to messages over and over again, and if you are not accountable to other believers, you do not have believers that are speaking into your life, you have already missed three main channels God speaks through. Channel #4: God speaks to us through His Creation. Ps.19:1 The heavens proclaim the glory of God. The skies display his craftsmanship. 2 Day after day they continue to speak; night after night they make him known. 3 They speak without a sound or word; their voice is never heard. 4 Yet their message has gone throughout the earth, and their words to all the world [with emphasis]. God’s cre...

THEME: RETREAT TO REFRESH READ: Matt. 11:25-30 When some musicians want to release great songs, they retreat to secluded places where they can reflect, meditate and create. Some choose places overlooking the vast oceans, some choose where there are waterfalls, and some choose places with thick forestations.  As they observe the beauty of nature, the swift moves and songs of the soaring birds, the colourful flowering vegetations, the serene beaches and the unending waves of the nearby waters, they capture inspiration that helps them develop the hit songs they have been longing for. I met one of the world’s renowned musicians in Atlanta, USA a few years ago where journalist surrounded him and were asking what he had come to do and why his beards had grown so much. He said that his last album did not perform well enough and he was incubating another one he wanted to release that would perform better. He said that he needed to pull away from the Noise of New York and California ...

THEME: MAKE ROOM FOR GOD 2Corinthians 1-9 You should not be among the many that are living without the precious things God promised.The LORD Jesus Christ said in John 16:24" Until now you have asked nothing in My name.Ask,and you will receive,that your joy may be full. In making plans for your life and your future,stop focusing attention on only what you think you can do and what your resources can carry. You will be limiting God by so doing.When you plan for only what you can achieve by your personal efforts,you exclude God's grace and weary yourself with much toiling and energy exertion.Instead,you should make room for God in every plan you make. Plan to grow bigger and better in every unfolding phase of your life. When you plan for bigger things than your known resources can carry,do so with clear understanding that only God will help you to attain your desires.This understanding drives you to your knees.As you consistently pray and hold unto God,miracle are birthed...
