He who dwells
"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty" (Psalms 91:1 NKJV). The secret place is a place where one can get alone with Jesus, get away from all the distractions, and find peace and reassurance. It's powerful because Jesus will come and meet us and bring rest to us. It is also a place where God begins to deal with us. He begins to deal with our will, our soul. In doing so, He brings every bit of contamination in our hearts to the surface, in order to help us realize how much we need Him. This is the work of the Holy Spirit, who will begin to analyze our intentions and bring us strength where strength is due. We fill up our arsenal in the secret place to meet a world filled with demon powers. One gets prepared to stand against darkness and all its temptations in the secret place, alone with Jesus. It is the will of God that we lay ourselves aside and let Him have reign in our hearts. Jesus said, "Watch and pray, that you enter not into temptation: the Spirit indeed is willing, but the flesh is weak" (Matthew 26:41). The flesh will always find every kind of excuse not to pray, only to live a life defeated over sin and with unfulfilled expectations. Prayer is up to us, something we must discipline ourselves to do. God bless you. Amen
