Enter The Throne Room....
Just what exactly does that mean? Well, I have pondered that question myself. Now, I am not a theologian, so I certainly didn't go deep!
Well, in the old Testament the Most Holy Place was the inner most sanctuary of the tabernacle(later the Temple)
Within the Most Holy Place was the ark of the covenant, which represented God's throne....and His presence.
Exodus 25:22; Leviticus 16:2; Revelation 11:19
Now when the high priest entered the Most Holy Place, it was believed he entered into God's presence.
This just seems so impersonal. For myself, I need something that has more of a passion content, that I might be able to
better connect with.
Just as the curtain of the temple was torn to open the way into the Most Holy Place, so Jesus' body was torn and His blood shed....to open the way into the Heavenly Most Holy Place....into the very presence of God!
One of the most tresured gifts I have received has been the gift of feeling God's presence!
The very feeling makes me want to run out into the open lawn here at ACU and yell over and over...
I love the Lord!! I Love Life!!
I am certainly blessed!
I pray you remember that today is a gift from God please don't forget to unwrap it!

Fresh Grace....
Sound exciting, and rejuvinating? It is for me! Today my heart is focused on the story of Moses. How the Lord supplied
fresh grace to him consistantly. The whole story of Moses will encourage you and inspire you, but I just want to focus on his battle with the Amalekites.
Our task is to relinquish our fears and frustrations, problems and perplexities, and trust Him completely. He will give us strength, insight, the right word to speak, and a blessed sense of companionship with Him.
Moses and the people had to learn that all through the wilderness wanderings. And God was faithful! As they pressed on into the wilderness they were forced to trust Him each step of the way. It wasn't long before they were attacked by the Amalekites, who were decendants of Esau, and closely related to the Israelites.
Their fear of losing their grazing lands to the invading tribes made them fierce in their attacks. The Israelites were not prepared for war. The Lord had fought for them at the Red Sea; now they had to learn how to fight with
His help.. He gave Moses the formula. All he had to do was hold his holy rod in the air and Irael's armies would win over Amalek.
The same rod that opened the Red Sea was the Lord's appointed symbol of His presence in battle. But the people were forced to cooperate with the Lord and with one another. He taught them that they must be mutually dependent and supportive for His blessing to be received.
As long as Moses held the rod up high, Israel won, but whenever he rested his arms at his sides, the soldiers of Amalek won. When the battle drew on for along time, Moses was not strong enough to keep the rod uplifted. That's when he realized his dependence not only on God but also on Aaron and Hur.
They would stand next to him, holding his arms up. Joshua would then be able to lead the armies to victory. Moses learned that greatness was being willing to receive strength from others as well as from the Lord.
We were never meant to make it alone. We need one another to win in life's battles. Our ministry to each other requires prayer AND involvment. I could not make it through any day without the knowledge that people through their prayers are holding up my arms in the battle.
Thank you friends for your treasured support! You are a blessing in my life!
Don'y forget..today is a gift from God, don't forget to unwrap it!
