Beats From Your Pastor’s Heart
Hebrews 4:13-16, “Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do. . . . Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.”
When you see your shortness and realize you do not have a fervent love for the Lord–your heart is not inclined toward Him and His Word that much – God’s desire at that point is to supply Himself to you.
He wants to be your love for Him and that necessary desire for His Word.
So never be troubled, never be fearful.
Every new juncture in our Christian life, no matter what it is, is simply another occasion for fresh supplies from the throne of grace.
For example, you may be reacting toward someone.
What you need supplied to you is Christ to be lived out toward them.
Or you may be anxious about your financial situation.
So, what you need supplied to you is a life of trusting the Lord, taking one day at a time, and seeking first the kingdom of God.
That very life is equally supplied.
Or you may be exposed to a sinful and worldly environment, and you need the power to resist temptation.
The life that overcomes sin and the world will also be supplied to you.
We must continually realize that we are vessels receiving the bountiful supply of the Spirit of Jesus Christ.
Our whole understanding of the Christian life must be renewed in this way.
The Christian life is a supplied life.
Thus, spending time with the Lord is prime time in our daily life to get connected with the supply.
Until Tomorrow
