THE LONGING OF YOUR HEART
By Pastor Ayo-Simeon Agbelusi
The temple of old located in Salem or you want to call it Jerusalem was a delight for every soul who had a genuine love for God and his holy presence. Everyone craves to be in God’s presence and to behold the beauty of His holiness. The presence of the Lord is the total manifestation of his glory and splendor. You don’t want to miss it for any mundane thing of this world.
Behold, I long for your precepts; in your righteousness give me life! Psalm 119:40 ESV
One of the most significant proofs of your love for God will be your fervent desire to be in His presence. It stands to reason that one who professes love would ardently long to behold the beloved. The presence of God is manifested in us through the workings of the Holy Spirit, providing concrete evidence of our devotion to Lord Jesus Christ. Are you filled with a deep-seated desire to pray, worship, and adore the Almighty? What evidence can you provide of your love for the one who gave Himself for your sins and rose again? My aspiration is to see more believers fervently praying for the manifestations of God’s Spirit in this age and exhibiting a greater commitment to the cause of Christ.
My Prayer for you: May you be found in God’s presence always and be truly committed to serving Him wholeheartedly in Jesus’ name.
