God Thinking XIV - That Next Place 7

"If you want an inner court experience that takes you behind the veil, in the very presence of God, you will have to bring your faith, seek God diligently, present yourself to Him, without reservation, and be prepared to commune with Him in awe.

Do you want to go there?

1     You will have to be prepared to be changed.

2     You will have to abandon your pre-conceived idea of  what you will  receive from God.

3     You will have to accept what God gives to you.

4     You will have to accept what God tells you when you are there.

4    You will have to accept what God tells you when you are there.

God knows your dreams.

God knows your heart.

God has a word for you.

God has your answers, everyone.

But not every word from God is one you want to hear.

If you have created a religion for yourself that has been demanding from God for so long, that the idea that God would do something  contrary to your desires and wants has  been completely eradicated from your thinking.

If you want a - rub the lamp three times - give me my wishes genie, that gets in the bottle and leaves you alone when you are finished with him.

You are going to be very disappointed.

If you want to go to that next place, in the presence of God, in the inner court, the holy of holies, that place where God is God and you are in Him, this place where you lose your own ego long enough to receive God’s very best for you.

You will have to accept what God tells you when you are there.

Listen carefully: 

You get into God’s presence when you read the scriptures.

You get into God’s presence when you share your faith.

You get into God’s presence when you worship.

You get into God’s presence when you praise.

You get into God’s presence when you pray.

You get into God’s in the presence, in the inner court, the holy of holies, that place where God is God and you are in Him, this place where you lose your own ego long enough to receive God’s very best for you - when you supplicate.

Remember I said this message was for those who want to experience God in the most intimate way possible.

You want to know how to get into this place,  in the presence of God, in the inner court, the holy of holies, that place where God is God and you are in Him; the place can be anywhere, but you get into this place by supplication.

Note: I hope I didn't lose your interest. "Wow," you say, "that's too demanding for me."  Sometimes the things of God come off as too religious sounding or too heavy or too demanding and what you really want is simple and easy.  Believe me when I say that God is not making this complicated, We/I am.  It's just that in modernity the average person has been indoctrinated into a complex, religious, rigorous, complicated, cumbersome and demanding, usually denominational relationship with God. God prefers simple and uncomplicated and supplication certainly fits that scenario.  But to get there, (simple and uncomplicated) there needs to be a personal relationship based on instruction from God, not man. That is what I am attempting to do in this blog; steer the reader to a simple and personal relationship with God.
