The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 3 – Removing the Veil
Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus.–Heb. 10:19
Among the famous sayings of the Church fathers none is better known than Augustine’s,

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer - Chapter 2 – The Blessedness of Possessing Nothing
Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven. Matt. 5:3
Before the Lord God made man upon the earth He first prepared for him by creating a world of useful and pleasant things for his sustenance and delight.

The Pursuit Of God – AW Tozer – Chapter 1 – Following Hard After God
My soul follows hard after you: your right hand upholds me.Psalm 63:8
Christian theology teaches the doctrine of prevenient grace, which briefly stated means this, that before a man can seek God, God must first have sought the man.

A Closer Walk With God, WFJ, Words From Jesus »
As I was reading MOVE WITH ME AS MY GLORY CLOUD MOVES! by Nancy Slocum of God’s Whispers, I was reminded of our need to keep our eyes on Jesus and hold on lightly to the things off this world if we don’t want to keep on circling the same ground.
This is what Nancy wrote
The Lord said in the very timely word from Bertha Hinson, WFJ: The Cloud Is Moving… Just as I led Moses and My people by My cloud, I am moving My people today! You must be …
A Closer Walk With God, Christian Life »
Life continues to be challenging and the Lord continues to speak to me through events, His word, my thoughts and other people.
I am humbled by the love and support that has been evident in
people turning up with freshly cooked meals
friends popping in at lunch time to make sure I get a hot drink and have lunch

lifts to hospital
freshly baked cakes
friends calling in to iron and clean
The list could go on and on.
I am also challenged about how I live my life and what I put on my …

This guest post from Wade Taylor is a call to turn and bask in the presence of the Lord.
“If He fills Heaven and earth, then He presently fills the area we occupy now. No matter where we are, the Lord is there. But we were created for more than this. We need the manifestation of His presence—His approbation and favor resting upon us, the Son-shine, the warmth of His glory shining upon us, to change us so in its reflection Jesus will be seen by others. The fact of His …

Intimacy with God is a journey that you can walk daily. Never stop seeking God.
“If we do not cease seeking and knocking, we will discover unfolding degrees of intimacy with God. Even now, He is drawing near. The Lord promises, “Everyone who…seeks finds.”
Unfolding degrees of intimacy — stop and think about that for a minute. It makes me want to seek the Lord even more so that I can walk in greater degrees of intimacy than I’ve experienced before. Now is a good time to begin that closer walk with God. A lot …

It’s sad, but true, that many Christians go through life without really knowing God, yet God longs to be known. He wants to be involved in every aspect of your life.
The spiritual realm is just as real as the physical realm but many people are unaware of that because their spiritual senses are dull from lack of use.
There is a spiritual kingdom all around you waiting for you to recognise it.
Belief in the invisible lies at the heart of your Christian walk. To have faith is to be sure of …
