The Secret Place




The Secret Place
            Everywhere we turn, almost everyone seems to have a tougher version of life than the previous person, sometimes it gets so chaotic that you might begin to ask yourself; is this the life that was promised, the life that was saved on the cross of Calvary? As Christians, we have to know what we believe in and stick to that truth no matter what happens. In the storm, we have to know that God was there even before we arrived just to make sure that the storm will not consume us. Many at times, we face the wrong direction in our bid to escape from danger. God loves you and you should know that you are safe inside His hands no matter what life throws at you.
            The Secret place is not a place you design; it is the place where God is, a place where worship is all that comes out of your life. The Bible teaches us that an act of kindness to the poor is an act of worship to God. In the secret place, many things happen, lives are transformed, broken hearts restored, futures changed and people begin to see and live anew. If you were to be given a choice on your perfect life, many things you would choose might be things found in this world alone: money, houses, cars, clothes, things. While these are not bad things, they are perishable and to give your life to things will ensure that you live in order to service those needs. They become your secret place, your only hope for a good life. If everything you currently own were to be taken from you, what would you do? Your cars, houses, friends, sources of income and even your most prized possessions, would you be able to continue?
            Many people, even Christians, have become so attached to what they have and cannot even admit it to themselves. Jesus says that you cannot serve God and Money (Mammon), you will love one and hate the other. Can this be said of your life? Do you love God and hate Money? In your walk through life, it is important to know exactly who you are, where you stand and what you believe. The secret place you should desire is the place where God is because the moment you spend with Him is better than a million days away from Him. In this secret place you will find peace, love, joy, patience, gentleness, goodness, meekness and temperance, most of all you will be satisfied eternally without having to ask for more. The secret place is where there is rest. Everywhere else is full of chaos, struggles, malicious intent, adultery, fornication, witchcraft, hatred, heresies, wrath, seductions and so many things that just make life a bundle of turbulent hurdles.
            Why not find God today in the Secret place, take your yoke to Him, run to the Secret place where your heart will be free and everything you think you have lost can be given to you in full. You will begin to experience a life new to you but familiar to your Spirit. Let the life force of God begin to move you in ways you have never imagined, directing your heart towards experiencing the fullness of the spirit. I pray that God will lead you to His Truth and everything you need to know will be made clear.

God Bless You
