Yesterday morning God spoke to me and said:
"I so desire to bless you today, Thomas, so maintain the power and maintain the testimony..."
We had a quieter day yesterday. Sometimes that's the hardest! When there's nothing exciting going on ..that's when you need the Holy Spirit to keep you in God's presence. That's when you need to have Jesus by your side continually.
Even when we aren't 'ministering' to anybody, even when we aren't 'doing' all sorts of cool stuff for Jesus, He still so desires to bless us. And we allow Him to bless us by maintaining in our spirits the wonderful things He's done in the past. We stay uplifted this way!
"And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him." Colossians 3:17
We need to do it all for the glory of God. That's when we can be blessed in our coming in and blessed in our going out (Deuteronomy 28:6).
Sometimes it's easy to forget. Sometimes we forget to draw near to God. But He can keep us in a better place. God wants us to always be maintaining in our minds and spirits His power and His testimonies--God doesn't want us to become so bogged down in the present that we forget about the past.
God so desires to bless us. He wants to take us from glory to glory.
