It is possible for a mortal human being to commune with, counsel with, be friends with and have fellowship with the living God. Life in the secret place gives us His sweet counsel, guidance, wisdom and knowledge. There we enjoy intimate fellowship with the Creator of the Universe.

Always buried within us at the core of our being is our purpose for being. It is called the “secret place” where God prepares us to rule and reign in life. There He calls us by name – with Him it is personal, intimate. The door is always open in the secret place.

You and I were formed in “secret” in our mother’s womb. God intends for us to abide continually in the “secret place.” It is there that He renews, restores, and transforms us. We learn how to be Kingdom subjects. He reveals to us our true God-identity.

God commands us to pursue righteousness. As we live righteously we become greater than, more than our challenges. God builds people as they submit to His covering, guidance, and presence.

God has designed us and His universe for righteousness. He clothes us with the righteousness of His Son. Daily we are to develop a righteous conscience which empowers and equips us for a life of victory.

True liberty is only possible when we live righteous lives. Righteous people exalt a nation. Daily we are to sow righteousness into the lives of others. Righteous living results in peace, power, and protection.

America was born as a Christian nation and some forty percent of our founding documents contain passages from the Bible. Jesus taught us to honor our governmental leaders, those in authority over us. As believers, we should be the best citizens.

Perhaps the greatest need in our world today is a return to God-centered marriages. When God calls woman man’s helper meet, He is saying, “In this way you are like Me.” The marriage covenant allows us to experience love, intimacy and oneness in the same way God experiences it with the Trinity.

One of life’s great achievements is to turn our weaknesses into strengths. We should never allow our challenges to cloud our vision of God. The fullness of His divine strength can only be revealed in the context of human weakness.
