Process!

Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.  And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.  Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 1 John 4:13‭- 15 KJV

Today's extract goes to the heart of who God is, and who he is reflects what he has done. Knowing who God is, isn't the same as accepting who he is and allowing him reign in you. You must know him, accept him as Lord and owner of your life, if you are to fully experience all he can do. God's Spirit seeks to dwell in a heart, not temporarily inhabit. He wants to come in and change the life completely, but he will not compel anyone; it has to be a matter of choice.

Check your location today: are you dwelling in God or dwelling with the world? Can you testify through the Spirit living in you that indeed, the Son is your Saviour. For a moment, forget all that the world says, and find the Truth for yourself. If your present course hasn't given you the peace that God alone can give, it is time to seek the Son.

It is your inner witness that leads to your outer testimony. No matter how hard you shout, your life will show forth the quality of your convictions. Your confession is a reflection of your possession. If God is not in charge, nothing you say will make a difference. When God is not the one you seek, all you pursue will be in vain. When God is not your all in all, you can never be truly satisfied, even with the world at your feet.

What is your confession today? Better still, first question is: 'Who is in charge of your life?'. His time of favour is here.
