'ONE ON ONE'

Romans 12:1-3
Jesus said, ''but seek ye first the Kingdom of God
and His righteousness and all these things shall be
added unto you''. To seek the Kingdom, is to first
seek the King!
Our God is the one true God! Behold O Israel the
Lord our God is one. He may reveal Himself in three
persons, Father, Son and Holy Spirit but even still
they reveal themselves as One.
One in heart, one in mind, one in purpose! Jesus
prayed for His people that they would be one, even
as He and the Father were one. Unified in Spirit and
in focus.
When a married couple reach that place of oneness it
is only because the self-seeking and selfishness of
individuality has willingly been left behind for a
new sense of being. The two become as one! Even in
marriage among men and women God is trying to tell
us something powerful about Himself. Everything
begins with and stems from intimacy!
It started in the garden of Eden with Adam. It
continued on with Noah, Abraham, Jacob, Moses,
Joshua, Samuel, David and then on to Jesus Himself.
Today in our lives it remains the same. All ministry
must first come from us firstly becoming deeply
acquainted with God our Father. Or that ministry is
nothing but empty, dead religious activity. The
first of the Ten Commandments must be obeyed or the
other nine become somewhat irrelevant. ''I AM the
Lord thy God, you shall have no other God before
me''. We must put Him first and seek Him first above
all else or all that we are pursuing is but
meaningless chaff...blowing in the wind.
