What is my Price Tag?

The other day i was pondering on many things. Looking at clothes, shoes, friends... many things. We ladies are soo often proud and attached to our 'gadgets' - the dresses and shoes and jewellery and all those nice small things we ladies cling our heart to. But i realise that all these dont give us a price tag. The world will define our price tag from what they see on the outside. But God will attach a price tag from what lies within us.... Lady, what is your price tag? Just watch who your price tag with attract.

I cant wait to finish this up at the Yakuti Conference..... my spirit is bubbling with alot fo preach (If thats English-LOL)

The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks. Luke 6:45

On Dwelling...

I have been thinking about what a constant God we serve, and I realized that The King's Princess' post actually relates to my thoughts this week. God is always there for us; likewise, if we are serious about our relationship, we should be there for Him, not because He needs us, but because we need Him, and because His love for us is unfailing and eternal. We can draw near with our lips, but what causes us to dwell or drift away is the state of our hearts.

"...this people draw near me with their mouth, and with their lips do honour me, but have removed their heart far from me, and their fear toward me is taught by the precept of men..." Isaiah 29:13...

Dwelling Vs Occasional visits

Surely the lord has been teaching me alot in the past few days. I must add that i am more than delighted that this year is coming to a close in just a few days. But what has been lingering my mind and has stuck there is about dwelling in the secret place of the most high.

He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the Lord, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust. Surely he shall deliver thee from the snare of the fowler, and from the noisome pestilence. He shall cover thee with his feathers, and under his wings shalt thou trust: his truth shall be thy shield and buckler. (Psalm 91:1-4)

I must confess that if you begin a certain routine of prayer in your life, it later becomes a cycle that if you break , your life starts to feel abnormal. I just learnt that God is not so pleased with our occasional visits at his throne. You know those panicky occasional visits where we approach him with urgent prayer lines and we expect him to run over himself because we showed up?! No! He is more interested in the dwelling, constant, passionate visit.

But i would like to argue that an occasional visit that has purpose, meaning and is passionate is more worthwhile than a constant visit that is done just to fulfill a promise. Yeah, that can be disturbing. The fact that your friend who prays or attends church two times a year has had all her prayers answered those few times she made herself available to God.

God is looking for those who will dwell and abide in Him, and not just visit a time or two when it is convenient. Residing there requires much more than most people are willing to give.

I have just been reminded of something: God never flunks anyone out of a trial. You will go through it again and again until you get it. And when you do, He will not hide this fact from you. "They overcame him by the Blood of the Lamb and the word of their testimony." Rev 12:11
