GAINING ACCESS AND CONNECTION WITH THE LORD

GAINING ACCESS AND CONNECTION WITH THE LORD

 

3/17/21 GAINING ACCESS AND CONNECTION WITH THE LORD

This morning I woke missing Him so much.  I got my journal out, and waited a bit but heard nothing and I was just missing Him and wanting to connect.  I prayed in tongues and tried waiting on Him.  After a while, I listened to a teaching on prayer hoping that might help me connect.  The teaching only made me long for the Lord even more! Finally I went back to bed and at last I heard Him.  Thank You Lord!

 

HEARD: 

Volunteer efforts.  [Lord what does that mean?]  It means you seek Me because you want Me.  Yes sweet one, you knock and I open. 

 

Matthew 7:7-11 Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you: 8 For every one that asketh receiveth; and he that seeketh findeth; and to him that knocketh it shall be opened. 9 Or what man is there of you, whom if his son ask bread, will he give him a stone? 10 Or if he ask a fish, will he give him a serpent? 11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?

 

There is a difference between seeking Him out of duty, because it is the right thing to do and seeking Him because you want to be with Him.  It is the difference between being His servant, vs being His friend.

 

There are many ways to knock but it is the heart that I respond to.  The knocking prepares you to receive.  [Thank You Lord for talking to me.  Can we have fellowship?  I want you so badly.]  Yes you can.  The door is open.  I am the door.  The door of My heart is open to you sweet one. 

 

HOW TO KNOCK

  • Thanksgiving
  • Worship
  • Prayer
  • Tongues
  • Sacrifice
  • Studying His Words
  • Resting in His Presence
  • Meditating on Him/ His Words

 

WORD TO PONDER:  TO WANT ME ABOVE ALL ELSE 3/17/21

Dear hearts, I understand your longings and yearnings to hear from Me.  I miss you too.  Your feelings are a reciprocal response to My own, for I am drawing you to Me.  Yes I am always with you dear one.  However fellowship is a two way reciprocal love and only in the 2 way exchange can true intimacy take place.

 

I did promise that if you seek Me, you will find Me.  My friend, I always hear your knocking on My door and I promised it is always open to you.  However the tools of knocking are not what opens My door.  Your knocking only prepares your heart to receive Me and what I want to share with you.  It is the longing in your heart, the deepest desires of why you come to Me, that I respond to.  I hear, feel, and need your heart just as you need Mine.  Do you understand this?

 

I give My people 3 places to dwell.  In the outer court among the people, the inner court, or the holy of holies. You have the options to leave the courts behind, closing the door to their distractions and demands, and coming into your secret place with Me.  We both find satisfaction as we commune together and find the love our hearts long for together.  Come dear one, the door of My heart is open to you always.

 

Matthew 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

 

Matthew 6:6 But thou, when thou prayest, enter into thy closet, and when thou hast shut thy door, pray to thy Father which is in secret; and thy Father which seeth in secret shall reward thee openly.

 

BOBBY CONNER:  WONDERFUL CONFIRMATION ABOUT PRAYER

I opened a facebook link today and it was a confirmation to connecting to the Lord:  The Lord told Bobby, I’m going to turn pray from a drudgery to desire, from duty to a desire.  Tell My people that true prayer is an audience with the King.  Almighty God, creator gives us access anytime day or night.  Prayer brings power and power brings change.
