The closer we get to God

Remember when we were children, and the Christmas season began to approach us-we would begin to get excited! The closer we got to Christmas-the more we would dream and see visions of possibilities to come. It had a distinct effect on our behavior. This is the way it is when we draw near to God! The closer we get to God-there is a distinct affect that takes place within our spirit. We begin to find hope and joy-where we once thought there were no hope. When we come to God in prayer-switch over into praise! Thank God in advance-and thank Him often! When our spirit finds joy in the Lord, the enemy cannot affect our faith. Don't worry about the difficulties in your life. Our God thrives in difficult times. For the scripture says "But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him." (Hebrews11:6)
