Day 104 and 105
These last five days we have been studying the very closeness of God.  We can live our entire lives and not ever experience this closeness with God.  We can attend church every time the doors are open and miss the very presence of God.
Here’s a review of the last five days in a nutshell:
·         I won’t leave you  (Genesis 28:15)
·         I’ll keep every promise that I have ever made to you  (Genesis 28: 15)
·         Not one word will be left out  (I Kings 8: 56)
·         I’ll watch over you wherever you go  (Genesis 28:15)
·         I want you to know the truth about Me (John 8:32)
·         I want that truth to set you free (John 8:32)
·         You can come near to Me  (Hebrews 4: 16)
·         I want you to understand My mercy and My grace  (Hebrews 4:16)
·         I want you to pass this grace on to everyone you see and to encourage their hearts with My love  (Acts 11:23)
When we have been with Jesus, it is recognizable:
Acts 4:13 (New International Version, ©2011)
When they saw the courage of Peter and John and realized that they were unschooled, ordinary men, they were astonished and they took note that these men had been with Jesus.
The grace of God is evident.  Others will see God at work in our lives:
1 Timothy 1:14 (New International Version, ©2011)
The grace of our Lord was poured out on me abundantly, along with the faith and love that are in Christ Jesus.
Prayer Focus:
Use this time to talk with God about His abundant grace poured out in your life.
