Secret Place

"He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High shall remain stable and fixed under the shadow of the Almighty [Whose power no foe can withstand]" (Psalm 91:1 AMP). So many times we strive for a higher spiritual life with Christ. We will go out and buy books about spirituality or on how to live a prosperous spiritual life. Books and all the knowledge behind them is all good, but there's nothing greater than living it out in the secret prayer closet. In this secret place, Christ can come to us, put His hand upon our shoulders, and pray with us. There is nothing greater than that. Living a life with Christ takes praying, reading, and studying the Word of God. That is all we really need to live a life with Christ and to be strong spiritually. A life dedicated to the Lord. So many times we walk around thinking, how can we ever get closer to God? We live a good life. We have done all He has shown us to do. Really, all we have to do is go into that secret place, the prayer closet, and shut the door to the cell phone, to the Internet, and to the world. Close it tight and begin to seek the face of God right there, and His very presence, without a doubt, in all faith, will come and pray with us. There's no greater feeling to know that we're not in that room alone, but we are with the Holy Spirit that abides in us. He is there with us. He touches our hearts and encourages us. He takes out any doubt that was within us. He truly takes care of all our needs in that secret place. Let us all find time with the Lord. We won't regret it. God bless you.
