Are we ministering to the house of the Lord or the Lord of the
house.
We have most surly come to a place that we shun evil but there is
another choice fruit on “that tree”. There are many “good” and needful
things
to be done in the house of the Lord. We can become very busy with
things that are by all accounts good and yet miss God completely. May
we in 2014 place all that we are doing for the Lord on the altar. May 2014 be the
year that we minister to the Lord. May we return to our first love. May we have
a single eye in 2014 for the Lord of the house.
....that I may cause those that love Me to inherit substance; and
I will fill
their treasure” Proverbs 8:17, 21
I believe as we are faithful and obedient to minister to the Lord in 2014 we will
come to know what He desires and be armed
with the will to say no to many things that
have hindered us from "entering in " to that narrow place that secret
place, a place that as we minister "to" the Lord there will be birthed in our hearts a ministry “of” the Lord to
His body that will be Spirit filled and anointed. It is only this anointing that we receive
in the most Holy place, behind the veil that will break the yokes of religious bondage
and free us to love, worship and obey the Lord with our whole heart in 2014. 2014 is a year to
set aside every weight, to tear down every idol in our life, to come apart behind the veil
and wait upon the Lord…wait…wait and wait some more until all that pertains to us is
as a puddle of tears on the floor and we are empty vessels waiting to be filled to overflowing
with His life. Then going forth from that place we will walk carefully and talk carefully so
that we retain that which we have received until the Lord releases that abundance (substance)
in our heart in times and places of His choosing in a ministry of His calling.
