June 27, 2021 Feeling, Faith, Fact. Prov 3:5,6. Pastor Jim Davis

I thought surely God will break through, at any moment, with the majesty of divinity and bless me abundantly.

I had made an appointment with God and He didn't show up.
But if He did, He was hiding from me.

I Cor 3:16
I Cor 6:19, 20
I Cor 7:23
Col 1:27
Eph 2:4-6
John 11:41a, 42b
Prov 3:5,6

On earth, God is in me.
In heaven, I am in Christ
That will make you feel something.

The truth was my prayers didn't need to go anywhere.

All I needed to do was to acknowledge His presence within me.

Three went for a walk on a wall,
Feeling, Faith and Fact.
Feeling took a bad fall,
And Faith was taken back.
Faith walked so close to Feeling,
That he fell too.
But Fact remained,
And pulled Faith up;
And Faith brought Feeling too.

it was always true, but it only became real to me, when I believed it.

It had no effect on me until I learned it in the fires of despair.

If God can't hear you, when you pray,
then He's not God.

If God always hears when Jesus prays and I am in Christ, then He always hears when I pray.

Can you imagine God saying, like a Chick-Fil-A trainee, "How may I serve you?"

Bad things may happen today, but...
When pain is in the brain,
Peace will reign in the heart.
