Beholding Him
"But we all, with open face,
beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image
from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord". 2 Cor. 3:18.
Let us stand before Him directly, to be
with Him where he is, and that we might behold His glory, that was His prayer
(John. 17), and let us believe that the Father and the Son will come to us and
dwell in us, fully, directly in fellowship one-on-one with us in the inner man.
("We will come to him and make our abode with him", John 14:23.) And
again from Rev. 3, "Behold I stand at the door and knock, and if anyone
hear my voice I will come in to him and sup with him, and he with me."
We stand by faith directly in His presence,
that is what the true life is all about, this direct presence to presence
relationship with Him. Let us not have
anything or anyone that comes between that direct communion, indeed we need
nothing or anyone in between us.
"....and truly our fellowship is with the Father, and with His Son
Jesus Christ. And these things write we
unto you that your joy may be full. I John 1:3, 4.
Let us come boldly to the throne of
Grace, let us not doubt that as believers we can have that direct communion
with Him, our heart and sight directly to His heart and sight. "We look at
Him and He looks at us" as this quote from early tradition tells us. Take
the Holy Name of Jesus into your heart. Hold it there in your constant focus. The
Name of Jesus will become that well of living water in you through the Presence
of the Holy Spirit (no one can say Jesus is Lord except by the Holy Spirit),
and will guard you from many onslaughts. Be bold to take your place standing in
His presence, He will reward your dedication to this with an abundance of His
Personal communion dwelling with you.--------------
