I want to look into
the eyes of your Savior and ask the question, “Are you pleased with me, Lord?”
I want to commune
with the Holy Spirit in a way that assures me that I have not only communicated
my needs and desires, but, that I can say with assurance, that I have heard the
voice of God, and that is why I am going forward with... (you fill in the blank).
Today, you have been
brought to a crossroad. What you do
after you read this, will be the determining factor in the results - the
outcome - of your entire future.
I am asking you to
take a moment and pray to God to help you with your unbelief. I will do it too.
It is not that you don’t have enough knowledge to follow Christ in your everyday walk.
It is not that you don’t have enough proof, that you mess around with a Holy God.
It is not that you are
slacking in revelation, inspiration, illumination or impartation that you are
found in want, too often.
It is not that you have not been shown the way.
It is not that you have not sensed His glory round about you.
It is not that you have not learned, many times, timeless truths from the ancient of ancients.
It is not that you have not sensed His presence.
It is not that you have not, on occasion, given
consideration to the things of God.
It is not that the
devil has so much power that you just cannot break through to that place of
certainty and surety.
It is not because, as
a child, you suffered at the hands of the guilty, and you just cannot get beyond
it.
It is also not that you have come to recognize your insufficiency, and it is so great that you cannot
get beyond yourself."
