"The dividing line"


Doves, Tennessee Lady, My husband found a wonderful writing by Spurgeon to describe the dividing line more clearly than i ever could. And i quote, "HE THAT DWELLETH IN THE SECRET PLACE OF THE MOST HIGH" { Psalm 91:1}   The blessings here promised are not for all believers, but for those who live in close fellowship with God.Every child of God looks towards the inner sanctuary and the mercy seat, yet all do not dwell in the most holy place; they run to it at times, but they do not habitually reside in the mysterious presence.Those who through grace ABIDE in Christ and Christ in them, become possessors of rare and special benefits.To them the veil is rent, the mercy seat is revealed, these like Anna depart not from the temple, the virgin souls who follow the Lamb wherever He goes. Elect out of the elect, and of them it is truly said that their conversation is in heaven.Outer court worshippers little know what belongs to the inner sanctuary, or surely they would press on until the place of nearness and divine familiarity became theirs. Those who are The Lords constant guests shall find that He will never suffer any to be injured within his gates; He has eaten the covenant salt with them, and is pledged for their protection". { Revalation 22:17]  "The Spirit and the BRIDE say come".  I hope this blesses you, in Jesus Karen
