Truth and Consequences series
He Is Near
Truth is that the Lord is near, the ancient word "nigh" is translated to near, so the Lord is near to all who call Him. When the truth sinks in we will understand that God is always near; when we are dealing with issues that we can not solve, He is near. When we are facing death, He is near. The list of situations and circumstances of how near God is would be as long as sentence around the world, wrapping 100 times. Truth, is He is available to all who call on Him in Truth. Our problem is understanding the "Truth." In John 14:6, Jesus, the Son of God make a vivid statement with truth, He says most infactly, "I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." 'So close and yet so far away; close only counts in horse shoes' and whatever comes to mind but the consequence of the matter leads us to 2 Peter 3:9 especially in this passage, "The Lord is not slack concerning His promise" He promised a savior and the only way to the Father is through Him, Jesus the Savior of the World. Truth and Consequences.
Psalm 145:18
The Lord is nigh unto all them that call upon him, to all that call upon him in truth.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Almighty God, we respect and honor You for Truth that does not fade over time, with traditions or involvement with social media and for that we thank You. You who has design the salvation of the world from the beginning of time with purpose and intent, we praise You. We declare and decree blessings upon those who understand that You are near and know how to find You, so that the Word which stands true will edify and promote the relationship necessary to become a citizen of the Kingdom. Now, for the sake of the Kingdom, we petition, with an anointing in the name of Jesus Christ, our Lord and Savior, Amen.
