DAILY WORD – FRIDAY 11 NOVEMBER 2005

AM I GOD AT HAND, SAYS THE LORD, AND NOT A GOD AFAR OFF?

(JEREMIAH 23:23)

NEAR NOT FAR

Gods name is ‘I AM’. His name is not ‘I WAS’ or ‘I’M GOING TO BE’. He is the God of our today, He doesn’t say ‘I helped you yesterday, today I’m busy’ and He doesn’t say ‘come back tomorrow I might have some time for you then’. No His desire is to be in close intimate relationship with us moment by moment.

We, on the other hand, tend to live either in the past or the future. We either spend a good deal of time re-hashing our past, longing for ‘the good old days’ or crying over ‘past hurts and injustices’; or alternatively we ‘live for tomorrow’, pursuing some vague ‘future happiness’ and contentment with words like, ‘when I get that car, house, husband, wife etc. I will be happy and content’. Then in the middle of all our present discontentment and frustration, we raise our hands up to heaven and cry out ‘where are you God’.

And His answer?  ‘I AM’.

When will we stop looking for our Lord in all the wrong places, He’s not somewhere in the past reflecting on all our mistakes, He’s not out there in the future hoping we might get on the right road and catch up to Him one day; no our God is here, right now, wanting to direct our lives and fill us with everything we need now, this moment , this day!

He’s here today, no matter if you’re up or down, happy or sad, right or wrong, in the oasis or in the desert. He holds within His being every answer to every question, healing for the broken hearted, restoration for the battered and cheated, deliverance for the spiritually imprisoned, hope for the hopeless, love for the unloved. He is Father, Lover and Friend, and with Him today, all things are possible for YOU!

BELIEVE THE WORD NOT THE WORLD!

Have a glorious Friday.

Much love

B & C
