DWELL

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know.

Psalm 27:4,5 (MSG)

I’m asking God for one thing, only one thing: To live with him (to dwell)

…

5 That’s the only quiet, secure place in a noisy world, The perfect getaway far from the buzz of traffic.

This entire Psalm is WORTH a read.

Take a minute and read it once you are done here. 

You won't regret it!

But I wanted to offer this snippet as ENCOURAGEMENT for today.

If you could choose one thing today, why not make it to dwell with GOD?

You can CHOOSE that!

His invitation is open.  His hand extended.

You open Your hand and satisfy every living thing with favor.

There is safety for this day with Him. Psalm 145:16 (ESV)

For:

The one who lives under the protection of the Most High dwells in the shadow of the Almighty. Psalm 91:1(HCSB)

So, to choose that "one thing", to choose to "dwell", WOULD make all the other “things” about today BETTER. 

It would!

For in that dwelling place is GOODNESS and MERCY needed for today. (Psalm 23)

In that dwelling place is GUIDANCE and DIRECTION needed for today. (Check a Proverb or two)

In that dwelling place is the OPTIMISM and HOPE needed for today!

And in that dwelling place is your measure of PEACE for today!

That means all the chaos of today can continue to clang for the buzz of the intense traffic and noise has no penetrating power in HIS dwelling place.

That is a GOOD thing!

Amen?

So, let's DWELL! Why wouldn't we?

Take refuge. 

Allow GOD to filter the noise in that perfect GETAWAY.

Get away with me and you’ll recover your life. I’ll show you how to take a real rest. Walk with me and work with me—watch how I do it. Learn the unforced rhythms of grace. Matthew 11:29(MSG)

And embrace GOD's PEACE and PROTECTION for this day!

For peace does not dwell in outward things, but in the heart prepared to wait trustfully and quietly on Him who has all things safely in His hands.” ― Elisabeth Elliot

HAVE A BLESSED DAY!

LOVE YOU ALL
