Be Willing

We are the dwelling place of God.  He lives in us. 

               All who confess that Jesus is the Son of God have God living in them, and they live in God.
                              1 John 4:15 NLT

 The home of God is our heart.  There is no place we can go to escape His presence.  When we think no one is watching and no one will see - God is watching and He does see.

Your actions are not the only part of you that God can see.  He knows your thoughts, motives, and your heart.  Every part of you that is hidden from the world is visible to God.  You have no secrets from Him.

The Bible says God works from within us because what we hold in, try to hide or avoid dealing with will ultimately affect our entire life.  You cannot take poisin in  without the loss of one or more parts of your body.

Many people miss out on the blessings of God because they refuse His help in dealing with their hurts, habits, or hang-ups.  We all have issues - people who have hurt us and those we have hurt.  Our poor choices not only hurt others, they hurt us as well.  But God (I love saying that!) has made the way to heal every hurt and restore full function to every part of your life.

The blood of Jesus was poured out for each one of us so that it can fill in, mend and knit back together the brokenness we hide within.

The power of our secrets is removed when we allow the Light of Christ to shine on them and His blood to cover and remove them.  The only catch here is that you have to be willing to let Him move in and give Him free run of the house. 

We talked a few posts ago about God having your best interest at heart.  Everything He asks you to do is for your personal good and benefit.  To add icing to that cake, let me also remind you that with His request, He also gives you everything you need to do it - power, wisdom, control, peace, and purpose.

Be willing to let God move in.  Be willing to work with Him, to rely on His strength when you think you can't do it, and to let Him lead you. 

Jesus loves you so much!  Let Him move in and remove your secrets.  Let Him heal you.

Be willing.
