ACCESS TO GOD

Children of God always have access to Him. This is one of the qualities of God. We need no permission to go before the Lord.

A king or queen gives permission before anyone meets with them, but God does not seek such from us. He is always open to us, and we only need to pray and seek His face.

He says in Jeremiah 33:3 - "Call to Me and I will answer you and tell you great and unsearchable things you do not know". He is always available when we call, and He is willing to answer us.

We have the privilege to go into the house of The Lord without any physical qualifications. We are all accepted before the Lord, granted we come with a pure heart and clean hands. As Psalm 24:3-4 says, "Who may ascend the hill of the Lord? Who may stand in His holy place? He who has clean hands and a pure heart, who does not lift up his soul to an idol or swear deceitfully".

Let us make good use of this privilege, communicate with God frequently and go into the house of the Lord with prayer and supplication. For He is always there to listen to us.

OUR NOBLE ORIGIN

As Christians, we have a noble origin which is God. We were not just born into the world by earthly parents, but we were already destined by God to be born and for a purpose.

Wisdom of Solomon Chapter 8 vs 3: In that she is conversant with God, she magnified her nobility: yea, the Lord of all things himself loved her.

We ought to have a close, personal relationship with our Creator, who is our noble origin. We are not just mere mortals who live, breathe and will die one day. We were made in the image and likeness of God. We are His ambassadors on earth and one day, we will give an account of everything we did with our lives.

Children always run home after doing their schoolwork and playing with friends. They hardly sleep outside. We are always to remain in close contact with our noble origin. Our home, which is God himself. 

There, we will find everything we need to function properly on earth as human beings. Peace of mind, joy, happiness, love, strength and all good things are found in our noble origin.

We should behave in a Godly manner which will identify us as children of God. We should always be in the presence of God and allow Him to direct the course of our lives. We are children of the highest of all. 

Outside of our noble origin, there is danger and all sorts of evil waiting to destroy us. As 1 Peter 5 vs 8 says - Be self-controlled and alert. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. The enemy can only be able to destroy a person when he is outside his noble origin, which is God.

Therefore, we all must abide with God who is our noble origin, our home and our place of safety.
