The Wall of Separation

Today in Sunday School I had a student talk about feeling like they can't connect with God. That they don't know where to start with Him. She felt that there is this huge wall separating her from God. The things that she goes through she feels that God is punishing her. I could see her passion for the truth. A passion that desire to see the manifested Presence of God. She is not alone though. We all are in need of His presence.

And not as Moses, which put a veil over his face, that the children of Israel could not stedfastly look to the end of that which is abolished: But their minds were blinded: for until this day remaineth the same vail untaken away in the reading of the old testament; which vail is done away in Christ. But even unto this day, when Moses is read, the vail is upon their heart. Nevertheless when it shall turn to the Lord, the vail shall be taken away. Now the Lord is that Spirit: and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is liberty. But we all, with open face beholding as in a glass the glory of the Lord, are changed into the same image from glory to glory, even as by the Spirit of the Lord. II Corinthians 3:13-18

The enemy wants us to look at the wall and believe that we will never find access to the Presence of God. The enemy does not care if we hear about God. He just does not want us to hear God. He does not want us to know that God never condemns He forgives. That God is for us not against us. The enemy wants to destroy us so that we don't become aware of who God is and His unfailing love. It is time for us realize that the wall of separation is already destroyed. And the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom. Mark 15:38 It was destroyed by Jesus Christ. He paid the price for our freedom. Don't let the enemy deceive you into thinking that you can not have a relationship with God. God desires you. He knows your mistakes and past. He knows something you don't know He knows your future.

Let His love reign in your heart that you can be a shining light to a generation that yearns to know the God you serve. The wall has been destroyed confess your need for God and He will reveal His Presence to you. God bless you.
