The Samaritan
woman at Jacob's well asked Jesus; "The Hebrews make prayer on
mount Sion in the temple built by Solomon, in Jerusalem, and say
there and no where else people find grace and mercy of God.
Our people worship on these mountains, and say only on the mountains
of Samaria, ought God to be worshiped. Who are the true worshipers?"
Jesus answered "OH woman, you Samaritans worship that which you
do not know, but we Hebrews worship that which we know, verily
I say to you; God is Spirit and Truth, and so in Spirit and Truth
must He be Worshiped, Loved and Glorified.
The promise of God was made in Jerusalem in the temple of Solomon,
but believe me a time will come when God will give his Mercy and
Grace in another city, and in every place it will be possible
to worship Him in Truth, and God in every place will have accepted
true prayer with mercy."
Jesus was asked "Master teach us to make prayer"
|
Jesus answered.
"Consider what you would do if the Roman governor seized you to
put you to death, and that same do you when you go to make prayer.
And let your words be these:
"O
Lord our God, hallowed be Thy Holy name, Thy Kingdom (SPIRIT) come
in us, Thy will be done always and as it is done in heaven so be
it done on earth; give us the bread for every day, and forgive us
our sins, as we forgive those that sin against us, and suffer us
not to fall into temptations, but deliver us from evil, for thou
art alone our God, to whom pertaineth Glory and Honor for ever."
.......................Commentary
And so it is True, we can Love God our Creator in Truth and in SPIRIT,
anywhere and at anytime. The key is to go to God for God, not because
we desire or need something. God is no magic genie in the sky, just
waiting to grant your every wish. His Love, Mercy, Peace, Joy, and
Happiness await all who go to Him in TRUTH and in SPIRIT.
....................LIVE
WITH GOD
