A Safe Shelter

There is a safe hiding place, a shelter for those who live in righteousness. For those who live in the House of God because we are His House.  We are His dwelling place if we live in obedience to Jesus, if we obey Him then He comes and abides with us.  He gives us His Spirit to come and live in us.  I read the Words of Jesus in John 14:18-21 He said: "I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you, after a little while the world will behold Me no more but you will behold Me; because I live, you shall live also. In that day you shall know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you. He who has My commandments (My Words) and keeps them is the one who loves Me; and he who loves Me shall be loved by My Father, and I will love him and I will disclose Myself to him." To those who know Jesus, He is not far away, He is not far away in Heaven, He is here, He is a reality.  He sent us His Spirit to comfort us to be with us all the time because Jesus Himself and the Father has made His dwelling place in us.  And there is a shelter where you can go when everything around you is falling to pieces, it does not matter what the situation is outside you can enjoy that inner peace because you are living in the House of God.  It is when you go and spend time with Him in close communion.  Just go and spend time with Jesus in prayer waiting on Him and then His Spirit will speak to you. He will reveal Himself to you.  He will explain things to you, He will share His secrets with you.  He said: "I will reveal Myself to you."  He says "the world does not see Me anymore but you will because I will be in you."  Dear friend, do you experience Jesus as a reality, every moment of your life? Because He is real, He is not far away.  Have you receive the Holy Spirit that He promised to those who obey Him who have invited Him in and are embracing Him?  Who are sensitive to His Spirit speaking to them because then He comes in and He dwells with you and you are never alone.  You are always comforted, you always have the Helper next to you.  You are never desperate you are never destitute, Jesus is with you.  That is the inheritance of the saints, Immanuel, God with us, Jesus in me.  It doesn’t matter what happens in this world, if you have the peace of Christ in you, then nothing else matters but we must remain in Him, in His Words, obedience to Him, listening to His Spirit, spending time with Him every day, to receive the Bread of Life.  Man will not live from Bread alone but from every Word that proceeds from the MOUTH of God.  Have you been listening this morning, did you spend time last night listening, hearing from Him.
There is a place of safety, of comfort, of hope, of rest, in Jesus.  He is inviting you to come to Him, open the door and let Jesus come in.  Obey Him, seek Him and He will be your Comforter, He will be your constant companion.  You will never be alone because you will be LIVING IN the HOUSE OF GOD. He will be dwelling inside of you.  Is Jesus dwelling inside of you dear friend?  Are you living in the House of God?
  May Jesus bless you.
