| The Secret Place – Part 7

Ps 91:1 – He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.  NKJV

There has been this recurring thought that the Lord has brought to me several times over the past few weeks.  It has found its way into everything I have been teaching lately.  The thought is this,

“The principles of the Word work at the highest level of efficiency through close fellowship with the Lord.”

“There is no true victory without fellowship with the Lord.” 

In thinking about 2019 and all the good teaching and Word that we have heard and looking at 2020 and thinking about the prophetic words that have been spoken over the Body of Christ and over our church here, I realize that God’s intent in teaching and declaring is not to produce principled robots of obedience but rather those who through fellowship express His nature and desire in the world where He has stationed them.  God desires fellowship and that is why He has given a “Secret Place” to every person on the planet.

In this series, we are going to look at some ways to have and maintain close fellowship with the Lord.

Part 7 –  Today we look at two principles of fellowship that maintain and increase faith in the believer’s life.  First, we wrap up James 1:2-4 by looking into the importance of exercising patience from the knowledge of God through our trials.  Finally, we finish up looking at the importance of being still before God and allowing His Word and the Holy Spirit to bring you strength and direction.  Remember, fellowship with God produces an unreasonable declaration out of the mouth of the believer as we see in Psalms 91!  Until you are believing the impossible you have not had fellowship with God like you can and should!
