Are You Living In The Shadow of Your Family, Friends, and Past Mistakes or Are You Dwelling In The Secret Place of God and Abiding Under His Shadow?

Have you ever done something just for the sake of doing it?   Just because it was something that someone else wanted you to do or just because you were bored and had nothing else to do?   We have to get to the place of understanding that our choices matter.   What we choose to do matters?   It's time to stop living in the shadow of our family, friends, and even our past mistakes.

The Bible says that He that dwelleth in the secret place of the Most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.   There is no place better than being hidden in the shadow of God.   You may be asking Yourself what is that secret place?   How do I get there?  How do I stay hidden in the shadow of God?

When something is secret, it is not known, seen, or meant to be known or seen by others.   There is a secret place in God that not everyone knows about.    It is a place of refuge, a place of shelter, and a place of peace.

We have to learn how to dwell in the presence of God.    When you dwell there, you reside there, live there, and become settled there.   We  have to come to a place where we rest in God and His Word.   It's time to dwell and to abide in the secret place of God where we know His Word, His will, and His way.   Where we put our total trust in what He has said He will do because as we do, we will begin to experience the protection and the peace of God.

For in the day of trouble He will conceal me in His tabernacle; In the secret place of His tent He will hide me; He will lift me up on a rock.
