Meet
Jesus: Near At Hand
Matthew
4: 17: From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent:
for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.
Meeting Jesus
is so easy. He is near at hand. When Jesus declares the kingdom,
it is His kingdom. Access to Him and all He is is as close as your
hand. Your hand is attached. His kingdom is attached. Access to
Him is attached to you. He is not a distant God, He is an ever-present,
ever-available King. Turn around. He is near at hand.
ACT!
What could be keeping you from meeting with Jesus? Turn away from
it. Turn to Him. He is exactly at hand.
PRAY!
Father, I turn from my way to Jesus' kingdom. I turn from my
thoughts to Jesus' kingdom. I turn form my ideas to Jesus' kingdom.
Let Him be near at hand to me. Work in me to remove any block to
receiving Jesus' kingdom near to hand.
