..TO RESCUE AND DELIVER US FROM THIS PRESENT WICKED AGE..
Christ gave (yielded) Himself up to atone for our sins and to save and sanctify us, in order to rescue and deliver us from this present wicked age and world order, in accordance with the will and purpose and plan of our God and Father–
Galatians 1:4 AMPC
In order that you not only survive but thrive in this “present evil world”, you must be turned inside out for Jesus. David describes his hunger for God’s presence in Psalms 27.and 63. The passion to live in His presence—to experience a face-to-face encounter with Him every day!
May the only thing that we seek and desperately desire more than anything else be this: to live and remain in God’s presence every moment of our life, delighting in the Lord’s perfections and meditating on His faithfulness.
And our soul’s cry will also be ….. ‘O God, You are my God; I earnestly search for You. My soul thirsts for You; my whole body longs for You. In Your presence I experience Your power and glory. Your unfailing love is better to me than life itself. O how I praise You!
Psalm 65:4 says Blessed, happy, fortunate, to be envied is the man whom the Lord chooses and causes to come near, that he may dwell in His courts! He shall be satisfied with the goodness of God’s house
Your brother in Christ,
Apostle Ashok Martin
