The very heart of God's my home......
Come with me today, I'm visiting the "Bosom of the Father"....
Are you hungry today?
"Blessed are they who hunger and thirst after righteousness, for they shall be filled",
Matthew 5:6.
Break the bonds of the 5-sense realm today, get into the "River of the Spirit",
let it carry you out beyond the basics of the Doctrine of Christ, into the dimensions of the spirit-realm in which God's moves and has His Being.

| "I'm in a River of the Sweet Holy Ghost" |
I'm in a River of the Sweet Holy Ghost,
I feel Him bubble, and I feel Him flow,
I'm going to let Him take me where He wants me to go,
Yes, I'm in a River of God's Sweet Holy Ghost."
When you are born again you have a deposit of the God-Kind of faith, it's purpose is to help you escape the 5-sense realm and learn to move around in your new world...the new world of those who are New Creations in Christ, 2 Cor. 5:17.
Your conscious effort to do this will please God.
Read this page out loud to yourself....then you are using the 5-senses (sight, hearing) to escape the 5-sense realm!
Put the conscious effort into 'knowing God and His Son, Jesus Christ', which is knowing Life Eternal, John 17:3.
KNOWING Him is ABOVE knowing the benefits of your Redemption, that is knowing the AUTHOR of Redemption.
Have a 'humble and hungry' heart....

"The Cycle of Faith"
Faith IS & Faith DOES
Faith is: a conviction, a trust, what is believed, an assurance.
Faith: produces a full acknowledgement of God's Revelation, inspires a personal surrender to Him, and helps you to live the conduct inspired by that surrender.
Jesus is the Author of your faith: Heb. 12:2
Faith is DIRECTED TOWARD God, Heb. 6:1
Faith flows with the Holy Ghost River, and that River flows TOWARD God, carrying you into His Presence, (notice the picture above...that River flowing from you, through the Cross, through Jesus and right up to the very Heart of God).
Jesus came forth from the Heart of God: John 1:18
"No man has seen God at any time, the only begotten Son which is in the bosom of the Father, He has declared him."
Jesus was the Word of God, and where do God's Words come from...
out of His bosom, inside of Him, just as your words come forth from your 'bosom'!
......who is on the breast of the Father, he has made clear what God is. (Bible in Basic English)
....no one has ever seen God, but the unique One, who is himself God, is near to the Father's heart. (Living Bible)
No human eye has ever seen God: the only Son, who is in the Father's bosom--He has made Him known. (Weymouth's)
Matthew 11:28 .... "Come unto me all you who are heavy laden and I will give you rest".
Rest upon the bosom of Jesus as John did. There is something about being 'bosom' close....I think of the phrase, 'bosom-buddies'.
Colossians 3:1-3....."If you then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above...Vs. 3 for you are dead and your life is hid with Christ in God."
You hidden in Jesus' bosom.
Jesus is hidden in the Father's bosom.
Think of 'nesting dolls' as an example....here is a photo of them:
You are to live your life 'out of' the bosom of the Father, as Jesus did.
When we say: "the very heart of God is my home"....
this is what we mean.....the bosom of the Father is my 'home'.
Let's look at one of the definitions of the word, 'cycle':
....an interval of time during which a sequence of events or phenomena is completed.
Jesus ministered on earth 3 1/2 years. That was his 'cycle' of ministry.
Jesus went about teaching, preaching and healing.
Acts 10:38.....Jesus "went about (that is the cycle of faith)doing good and healing all that were oppressed of the devil, for God was with him".
That 'cycle' started with the Baptism of John and was completed when He said on the Cross, "Father, into Thy hands I commend my spirit."
Faith finished it's cycle in His life.
Faith in you is also moving toward a point in time....when you die, that cycle of faith will be ended, and you will stand before the Lord.
What do you want to be like in that day?
Let faith finish its cycle of work in you.
