Cleanse your hands,you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. 9 Lament andmourn and weep! Let your laughter be turned to mourning and your joyto gloom. 10 Humble yourselves in the sight of the Lord, and He willlift you up. NKJVPart and parcel to the walk with God is being emptied of the self and filled with Him... this cannot be accomplishedunless you Have within you The Person of The Holy Spirit.

I believe one of those things you need to add,that is if you have not, personal relationship with God, a perssonal relationship with God will pave way for you to communicate with God, I'm a living witness,and let this believe and mentality always be in you;God is bigger than my problem,the blood of Jesus is bigger than my sin,if you try this,you will see God speaking to you expressly,both true dreams,true His word, it takes the grace of God to walk with God and to wait upon God, You need this; Patience,obedient,determination and 100% faith in God,prayer,The bible said that men oughter to pray,and not to faint:Just read, Luke 18:1-8" God promise may tarry;but for sure,it must surely come to pass; I myself i have been waiting upon God,for His miraculous visitation upon my life,for the pass two years, I strongly believe that at His own appointed time He will visit me.and change my condition.never you give up on God,He is worthy to be trusted,i'm a living witness.

He is antichrist, that denieth the Father and the Son. Whosoever denieth the Son, the same hath not the Father: (but) he that acknowledgeth the Son hath the Father also. 1 John 2:22-23 Seek Jesus Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Only through the blood of Jesus may we approach the throne of God and seek Him. When we come to God through faith in Christ we have a clean slate. God gave us His only son so that we may total access to His Throne. When we admit to God we are a sinner and ask Him for forgiveness and ask Jesus into our heart as Lord and Savior we can begin a brand new life. Start reading the Bible. Begin in the book of John. We are glad your here and we also have have a chat room where you can come in and speak to people one on one. God Bless you. Because He Lives!!

Surrender your life to God--your gift to Him. He will make you His child with no effort from you, He gives you a new heart that wants to please Him, to love and forgive others as Christ did. But Jesus' blood completely covers your sins and you are totally forgiven. You are able to enter His Presence right now! You can't come into God's Presence by your own effort or righteousness. It is never good enough. Only through Jesus' perfection which He gave to you when He took your sins upon Himself at the cross can you come to God. He gave you His righteousness in place of your sinfulness. So by faith you already have all that is expected of you. His kingdom and His righteousness are yours through the blood of Christ. Some churches want you to think you are never good enough. It is a lie to keep you dependent on them and upon the prayers of others. Hebrews 4:14-16 NKJV Seeing then that we have a great Hight Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fat our confession. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. We don't need heavenly saints or need to depend on earthly priests to make intercession for us because we have Jesus Himself making intercession for us as our Great High Priest. Romans 8:32-34 He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him freely give us all things? Who shall bring a charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. God set you free so that you can carry out the work He has prepared for you to accomplish. You can do it freely and joyfully, knowing that you are beloved in His sight and precious to Him. He loves you so much He sent His Son to die in your place on the cross. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
