DAILY DEVOTION - 2 DECEMBER 2019

Good morning. Peace be with you all. Rejoice in the Lord always. "For the law never made anything perfect. But now we have confidence in a better hope, through which we draw near to God." Hebrews 7:19 NLT. Insight How can you draw near to God? The Bible makes it clear that your own body is God's temple. Your spirit needs and wants closeness to God. You want to know the living God personally, not as an idea or concept, not as a distant monarch. You can draw near to God through prayer, worship, and Bible meditation. You need not live like a monk, but you probably need more prayer in your life. The habit of worship has become a convenience to be wedged between partying, sports, and other social recreations. Challenge Instead, make worship your top priority. Bible meditation may include verse memory, songs, and quiet personal reading. The Bible is the Word of God for you. Use it every day and you will draw nearer to God. Strengthen your personal relationship with God by filling your mind , soul and body with God's Holy Spirit. May God bless and protect you all. In Jesus mighty name. Amen.
