Checking into God's Presence... And Jehoshaphat feared, and set himself to seek the Lord, and proclaimed a fast throughout all Judah. And Judah gathered themselves together, to ask help of the Lord: even out of all the cities of Judah they came to seek the Lord. And Jehoshaphat stood in the congregation of Judah and Jerusalem, in the house of the Lord, before the new court, And said, O Lord God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee? Art, not thou our God, who didst drive out the inhabitants of this land before thy people Israel, and gavest it to the seed of Abraham thy friend for ever? And they dwelt therein, and have built thee a sanctuary therein for thy name, saying, If, when evil cometh upon us, as the sword, judgment, or pestilence, or famine, we stand before this house, and in thy presence, (for thy name is in this house,) and cry unto thee in our affliction, then thou wilt hear and help.” 2 Chronicles 20:3-9 To always seek the face of the Lord is not a taboo; the routine had been practice more than two thousand years ago, judging from the above bible passage. Seeking the face of God in all our endeavours opens up an eternal and divine investment. In return, those who follow the pattern will receive the Lord’s blessing. As King Jehoshaphat declared “And said, O Lord God of our fathers, art not thou God in heaven? and rulest not thou over all the kingdoms of the heathen? and in thine hand is there not power and might, so that none is able to withstand thee?; In like manner, those who seek God’s face in all things can expect their clothes of blessings to be in vogue, and the cruse of their oil shall not fail them, for God’s divine investment would have taken over the zeal in their level of faith. Make us victorious in the power of Your Name oh Lord, and none of Your Children shall beg for food. We, beseech You: "to take the part with them that help us" and let Your mercy declare peace upon us. With Your grace; forbid us from having any repercussion from the troubles of this world as You will remove humiliation, shame, rejection and dejection. And let any forms of lack be far away from us in Jesus Mighty Name. Amen Http://testimony-times.blogspot.co.uk Just Checking into His Presence...
