Blessed are those who live in your house. They are always praising you. Blessed are those whose strength comes from you. They have firmly decided to travel to your temple. As they pass through the dry Valley of Baka, they make it a place where water flows. The rain in the fall covers it with pools. Those people get stronger as they go along, until each of them appears in Zion, where God lives. (Psalm 84:4-7 NIRV)
For the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout the whole earth, to show Himself strong on behalf of those whose heart is loyal to Him. (2 Chronicles 16:9a NKJV)
Have we firmly decided to travel with God in our life in recovery? If so, God will be with us wherever we go. When we follow His ways in all our affairs, even in places that are dry to the word of God, we can be people who make it a place where the word of God flows like a refreshing stream. As we witness about Jesus and His love for us, blessings will flow, and our residence will be filled with more and more people who are praising God for releasing them from the power of sin. When we move on, the place will continue to be blessed with the fruit of the Spirit which is, love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control.
The longer we continue our journey with God, the more our lives will be become fruitful. Our faith in God will grow stronger until the time when we will go to dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
Prayer: Heavenly Father, Today, I ask You to strengthen me to walk the walk with You and not just talk the talk. Amen
