🙋‍♂️ G’day 🆔 DAY 4 – LOVE AND NEARNESS Close to Jesus, far from empty religion 🌅 #WorshipAndTheWord – Loving Jesus and Walking Close 🎶 #MyJesusILoveThee #MiscPraiseSongs 🎶 #JustACloserWalkWithThee #MiscPraiseSongs Christian life is not cold duty; it is living fellowship with the Lord Jesus Christ. ✨ ✝️ Jesus did not save His people merely to improve behaviour but to bring them into communion with Himself. Through His death and resurrection, the barrier of sin has been removed, and the believer now has true access to God. Love for Jesus is not an optional extra in discipleship; it is the very pulse of real faith. ✝️ To walk closely with Christ is to live in daily surrender, trust, obedience, and affection toward Him. Nearness to Jesus guards the heart from mere formality. It keeps devotion alive, convicts sin quickly, and teaches the soul to value His presence above the noise of the world. 📝 Abide in His Love ✏️ This scripture reveals the call to remain in Christ’s love through obedience. 📖 John 15:10 — NIV "If you obey my commands, you will remain in my love, just as I have obeyed my Father's commands and remain in his love." ➡️ A close walk with Jesus is marked by loving obedience. 📝 Draw Near to God ✏️ This scripture reveals God’s response to those who come near. 📖 James 4:8 — NIV "Come near to God and he will come near to you. Wash your hands, you sinners, and purify your hearts, you double-minded." ➡️ Nearness to God begins with a humble, sincere turning of the heart. 📝 The Lord Is Near ✏️ This scripture reveals God’s closeness to those who seek Him sincerely. 📖 Psalm 145:18 — NIV “The LORD is near to all who call on him, to all who call on him in truth.” ➡️ God draws near to those who call on Him with genuine and truthful hearts. 📝 Seek Him While He Is Near ✏️ This scripture reveals the urgency and invitation to pursue God. 📖 Isaiah 55:6 — NIV “Seek the LORD while he may be found; call on him while he is near.” ➡️ There is a present invitation to seek God wholeheartedly while He is near. 📝 Approach the Throne with Confidence ✏️ This scripture reveals the access we have through God’s grace. 📖 Hebrews 4:16 — NIV “Let us then approach God’s throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need.” ➡️ Through Christ, we can boldly come to God and receive mercy and help. 📝 Draw Near with a Sincere Heart ✏️ This scripture reveals the posture required to truly approach God. 📖 Hebrews 10:22 — NIV “Let us draw near to God with a sincere heart and with the full assurance that faith brings, having our hearts sprinkled to cleanse us from a guilty conscience and having our bodies washed with pure water.” ➡️ Nearness to God comes through sincere faith and a heart made clean before Him. 🎺 Beloved: Do not settle for Christian language without Christian nearness. Do not be content with outward rhythm while your heart drifts inwardly. Jesus Christ is worthy of your love, not just your vocabulary. Come near again. Return wholeheartedly. Reject distraction, lukewarmness, and familiarity without intimacy. Today, choose the better portion—walk closely with Jesus and let your love be renewed in His presence. 🙏 Prayer: Father, in the name of Jesus, I thank You that through Christ I have access to You and am called into real fellowship with the Lord. Thank You for loving me first and drawing me near by grace. I reject spiritual dryness, distraction, and empty routine. I receive renewed love for Jesus, fresh hunger for His presence, and a willing heart to obey. Holy Spirit, teach me to walk closely with Christ today—to love what He loves, hate what He hates, and remain near in humility and truth. I declare that Jesus is not distant from me, and I will walk with Him in love, obedience, and devotion. In Jesus’ mighty name, Amen. 🎶📖🔥🙏 🎹 #AltarFrontWorship🙌🏾 with #PsChrisB-160426🎶 © “Just A Closer Walk With Thee” – Traditional – c. 1930s (Published 1940) – Public Domain © “My Jesus I Love Thee” – William Ralph Featherston – 1862 – Public Domain Used under Fair Use/Dealing for the purpose of Worship and Teaching.

How Do We Discern the Presence of the Holy Spirit in the Body? To fully grasp the presence of the Holy Spirit in the body, we must first understand that the Holy Spirit dwells within the human soul. Because humans are an integrated unity of body and soul, the Spirit’s presence extends from the soul to the body. This unity implies that the way the Spirit interacts with the soul is also reflected in the body. Here’s how the Holy Spirit's presence in the soul manifests in the body: •In Perception: The Holy Spirit enlightens our understanding by opening the eyes of our soul to perceive spiritual truths. This divine insight allows us to see beyond the physical world and grasp the deeper, often hidden, realities of God's kingdom. This spiritual perception transforms our view of the world and guides us toward truth and understanding. •In the Heart: The Holy Spirit fills our heart with a fervent love for Jesus. This love is characterized by a profound attachment and commitment, even in the face of trials or threats. The Spirit ensures that our devotion remains steadfast, regardless of life's challenges, and sustains our love for Christ through difficult circumstances. •In the Will: The Holy Spirit influences our will, prompting us to engage in prayer, self-denial, and active love for Jesus. This guidance helps us to live with a hopeful expectation of future glory and to act with a purpose aligned with God's will. The Spirit’s influence directs our choices and actions, driving us to live in a way that reflects our faith and hope in God's promises. #HolySpirit #PresenceOfGod #Discernment #BodyAndSoul #SpiritualLife #ChristianLiving #SpiritualTruth #DivineInsight #LoveForJesus #SteadfastLove #GodsWill #PrayerLife #ActiveFaith #ChristianSpirituality #SpiritualGrowth #EyesOfFaith #HeartOnFire #DeepFaith
