seeing He giveth to all Life, and breath, and all things;
26
And hath made of one blood all nations of men for to dwell on all the
face of the earth, and hath determined the times before appointed,
and the bounds of their habitation;
27
That they should seek The Lord, if haply they might feel after Him,
and find Him, though He be not far from every one of us:

ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded.

open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he
with Me.

as I also overcame, and am set down with My Father in His throne.

He that hath an ear, let him hear what The Spirit saith unto the
churches.

And The End. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of
The Water Of Life freely.

and he shall be My son.
Why
should we live near The Lord? We should because of the Apostle Paul's
warnings.
II Timothy 3:1-5 KJV
1
This know also, that in the last days perilous times shall come.
2
For men shall be lovers of their own selves, covetous, boasters,
proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy,
3
Without natural affection, truce breakers, false accusers,
incontinent (without self control NKJV), fierce, despisers of those
that are good,
4
Traitors, heady, high minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of
God;
5
Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof: from such
turn away.

2:15 KJV
That
ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in
the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as
Lights in the world;

11
For I know the thoughts that I think toward you, saith The Lord,
thoughts of peace, and not of evil, to give you an expected end.

Then shall ye call upon Me, and ye shall go and pray unto Me, and I
will hearken unto you.
13
And ye shall seek Me, and find Me, when ye shall search for Me with
all your heart.
Prayer:
Isaiah
55:6,7 KJV
6
Seek ye The Lord while He may be found, call ye upon Him while He is
near:
7 Let
the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and
let him return unto
The
Lord, and He will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for He will
abundantly pardon.
