Nearest and Dearest Fellowship
We shall always be with the Lord.
~ 1 Thessalonians 4:17
"While we are here the Lord is with us, and when we are called away we are with Him. There is no dividing the saints from the Savior. They are one, and they always must be one: Jesus cannot be without His own people.
What a joy is this! Our supreme honor, rest, comfort, delight, is to be with the Lord. We cannot conceive of anything that can surpass or even equal this divine society. Before long we shall be with Him in His rest and in His royalty, in His expectation and in His manifestation.
Lord, if I am to be forever with You, I have a destiny incomparable. To be forever with the Lord is my idea of heaven at its best. Not the harps of gold, not the crowns unfading, nor the light unclouded, is glory to me; but Jesus, and myself forever with Him in nearest and dearest fellowship." (By: Charles H. Spurgeon ~ One Minute Devotions)
Please pray this prayer with me this morning. Our Father who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name. Thy Kingdom come, Thy Will be done on Earth, as it is in Heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. Forgive us of all our sins, our debts, and our trespasses, as we forgive those who are indebted to us, and those who have trespassed against us. And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from all evil:for Thine is the Kingdom, and the Power, and the Honor, and the Glory, forever. It is in Christ Jesus' Precious Name, Amen!
