“THE ROOM!”

Me-Maw Thoughts

Number 485

July 21, 2020///

Do you have a place in your house, perhaps a drawer, closet, or some other area that you put some things to handle or go through later?

Have you ever thought or said: “that is time consuming” or “there is so much of it”, or “I am not sure what all of that is”, that you just put it aside?

If we are honest, we all have those things we want to handle or we want to sort through, but we just let it slide!

In the natural that may not present a problem and eventually you or someone else will sort or take care of it!

But may I point out to you this morning that deep in our innermost being, the part of us that is our real self, the part we call out heart, it is not ok to let things go, waiting for a better time!

I am sure that most of you have heard the spiritual part of you referred to as having different rooms or sections.

Each of us have a part of our hearts that we just stuff things into that we do not want to deal with right then, or we think is time consuming, or there is just so much of it!

Maybe it is a past hurt that you have not dealt with or a situation that impacted your life negatively, that you just do not want to think about.

Maybe it is someone you felt did you wrong, but you just put it in that room to deal with later.

Or maybe it is a mistake or wrong choice or more than one of these that you just cannot face and deal with.

The truth is, that is a dark part of our heart, and satan lives in the dark part of our lives, but Jesus is the light and declared:

John 8:32 (KJV)
And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

We cannot conquer what we do not confront.  As long as we keep that room in our heart closed, we are bound to it.

John 8:12 (KJV)
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

1 John 1:5 (KJV)
This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

We must deal with those hidden things of the heart!

We must get open before the Lord God Almighty and begin to speak with our mouth those hidden things and the truth that we cannot deal with them on our own.

As we are honest and truthful before the Creator of the world, a light will begin to dispel the darkness and the freedom of truth will set you free from that bondage.

If a call or card or visit is necessary to make things right, the Holy Spirit will show you, but mostly this will be a time of honest confession of your wrong attitudes and desires and errors and confusion.

You will need to forgive, and open that room fully to cleansing by the Power of Almighty God through Jesus Christ!

2 Corinthians 4:6 (KJV)
For God, who commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined in our hearts, to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ.

Colossians 1:12-13 (KJV)
¹² Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
¹³ Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

The enemy of all that is good does not want you to bring those things out of darkness into the truth of the light of God. Light shows us those things that need to be confessed, handled, and released to His Power!

Jesus came as the light of the world! He desires us to walk in light and dispel darkness, telling us to be the light of the world.

But to fully be the light of the world, we must walk in that light in all our innermost being!

May we allow the Holy Spirit to examine our hearts and set us free from bondage and free to be all that we were created to be!

Father show each of us the things that we have pushed into a room and never sorted or dealt with.  Let us allow your Spirit to examine and guide us in dealing with these things.  I decree and declare we will put it off no longer but open our hearts to your cleansing.  I ask this in the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth!  Amen
