Biblical Text: “ Draw nigh to God and he will draw nigh to you to cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded”. [James 4:8a]

Emmanuel laid down starring at the ceiling in his house. He knew he had gone far from God. The thoughts constantly disturbed him. From a young boy singing in the choir to deviating and singing secular music that made him lose focus for God. He had no more time for God. As he stirred up the ceiling, he heard an audible voice, “Emmanuel, you have gone far from me, draw nigh, draw nigh!’ Emmanuel could not hold the tears any longer, he began to sob. The devil’s intention is to draw you farther and farther away from God in order to destroy you; God’s intention is to draw you closer to Him. The good things that God wants to give you are available ONLY when you draw nigh to Him. A lot of people are far from God and still complaining that God is not solving their problems. Jesus said, ‘Come unto me if you are heavy laden’; beloved, without drawing nigh, you cannot be able to get answers to your problems. For a person that has drifted from God; the first step to take is to seek repentance. But it does not stop there, God expects you to draw nigh to him by worshipping Him, communicating with him in prayers and fasting. If your earthly father is shouting your name from a distance of 100km, you can never hear him because you are too far away. That is exactly the case with our heavenly Father; to hear God, you must draw nigh to him. God wants a relationship with you. You can begin today if you do not yet have a relationship with Him.

KNOW IT ∞ Draw nigh to God and he will draw near to you.
READ IT ∞ Hebrews 7:19, 10:22, Matthew 11:28
PRAY IT ∞ Father, help me to draw nearer and nearer unto thee.
BIBLE IN ONE YEAR ∞ Micah 4-7
