tonight at prayer i did something different. i read a chapter in a book about the secret of holiness. two psalms were referenced, psalm 15 and psalm 24. there were other verses like Hebrews 12:14. i am so hungry for God. even as i was laying on my bed, before prayer, my soul cried out, 'seek My face.' my spirit called out to Holy Spirit until i rose to seek God's face. my soul was not satisfied until i worshipped, i meditated on the Word, i prayed the Word and i bowed in God's presence. we were created to worship God, to lift up God, to dwell in God's presence, to feast on the Word, to sit at God's feet. we can have this intimate experience each day. as we walk in the Spirit, live in the Spirit, and not fulfill the desires of our flesh. i die daily. i want to do God's will.
Psalm 15:1-5 states: O LORD, who shall sojourn in thy tent? Who shall dwell on thy holy hill? s/He who walks blamelessly, and does what is right, and speaks truth from her/his heart; who does not slander with her/his tongue, and does no evil to her/his friend, nor takes up a reproach against her/his neighbor; in whose eyes a reprobate is despised, but who honors those who fear the LORD; who swears to her/his own hurt and does not change; who does not put out her/his money at interest, and does not take a bribe against the innocent. s/He who does these things shall never be moved.
God, i want to sojourn in Your tent. God i want dwell under the shadow of Your wings. God i want to dwell in Your holy hill. God i want to walk blamelessly. God i want to do what is right. God i want to speak truth from my heart. God i do not want to slander anyone with my tongue. God i do not want to do evil or reproach my neighbor. God i do not want to engage in reprobate behavior. God i want to honor those who fear You. God i shall not be moved. i shall stand in You. in Jesus' name, amen
