He will come to you:
John 14:12-18
12 “Truly, truly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works
that I do, he will do also; and greater works than these he will do;
because I go to the Father.
13 “Whatever you ask in My name, that will I do, so that the
Father may be glorified in the Son.
14 “If you ask Me anything in My name, I will do it.
15 “If you love Me, you will
keep My commandments.
16 “I will ask the
Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever;
17 that is the Spirit of
truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but
you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you.
18 “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.
Jesus sent us another Helper of a
type just like Himself. Of course, this was the Holy Spirit. He is also a
Comforter just like Jesus. We didn’t get some cheap imitation Prada. We got the
real deal. He is to be with us for ever. He told the disciples that He wouldn’t
leave them as orphans; that He would come to them. They too didn’t want a cheap
imitation. They had had the real deal in Jesus. He came to them and He came to
us when we made Him Lord of our lives. He is with us and will never leave us.
If you could hear God speak to you, I believe this is what
He would say:
"I am
for you, My children. I have longed for you to be with Me; but there is much to
be done before that can happen. For now you will have to be content with My
Spirit. He will be with you and guide you into all the Truth. He will show you
what is yet to be done before you can join Me. I have a lot to talk with you
about and I am longing for it to begin. Trust in Me and listen attentively to
My Spirit. He will guide you into all the Truth; not just what others tell is
true, but what I tell you is Truth. You will soon be with Me and we shall
rejoice forever. Come unto Me and receive of Me what comfort you need. There is
much to do and little time to do it in.”
45. Jesus came to me
and will remain with me forever. I will never be alone.
This is our destiny … Jesus inside us and Jesus in the midst of us. Wherever we go, He goes. Whatever we need done, He does. We don’t have to get good enough to earn His presence in our lives or to earn His working in our lives. It is part of our destiny. We can’t make it happen. We can only prevent it from happening
