And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD (Joshua 24:15).
Closeness
A little boy asked, daddy, “How big is God?”
The father looked up at the sky and saw a plane. He asked the boy. “How big is the plane up there?
The boy replied, “Very small, I can barely see it.”
They went to the airport and the father pointed to a passenger jet and asked how big is the plane. The boy said, “Wow dad it’s huge.”
The father replied, “It is the same with God. His size depends on how close or how far away you are from Him. The closer you are to Him the greater He will be to you.” ~Unknown
Trust
Lord, I look back over the years and marvel at how You have been with me, provided for me, lifted me up when I have skinned my knees or bumped my nose. Because of whom You are I can trust You for the future. ~Unknown
Possess
Love is a compounded word. Love is to act vehemently or intensely. Because love is always active and will act in every possible way; for he who loves is, with all his affection and desire, carried forward to the beloved object, in order to possess and enjoy it. The above will help us to understand the following. “Because he hath set his love upon me, therefore will I deliver him: I will set him on high, because he hath known my name” (Psalm 91:14) Condition #1. is love. #2. is to know his name. Because, of love, God’s name has highest priority. Therefore God will set him on high. High, means protection, and honor. “What Is Your Highest Priority? ~Bill Hunt
Purpose?
John Wesley said of the members of one of the earliest Methodist societies that he doubted that they had been made perfect in love because they came to church to enjoy religion instead of to learn how they could become holy. ~A. W. Tozer
