If you were stranded in the desert and you found a spring you would not want to casually wander off in search of something else. You would stay close and return to it often.

                                                              Today’s One Year Bible Verses:Β 2 Kings 1:1–2:25, Acts 13:42–14:7, Psalm 139:1–24, Proverbs 17:19–21

                                                              Stay Close – Partake Often

                                                              Yesterday, the Lord showed me that He is the Source. Like a fresh spring to the thirsty, He alone can satisfy the deepest needs of our souls.

                                                              Today, He showed me something equally important: once you’ve found the Source, don’t wander away from it.

                                                              The Holy Spirit whispered this Gem of Knowledge to my heart:

                                                              “Cherish your time with Me. Do not let anything in this world take you away from it. It is your life’s spring, while anything leading you away is death. Amen.”

                                                              As I reflected on those words, I realized that finding a spring in the desert would change everything. A thirsty traveler wouldn’t discover life-giving water and then casually wander off in search of something else. They would stay close to it, return to it often, and protect access to it because their life depended on it.

                                                              That is what today’s Gem is really about.

                                                              We often think of our quiet time with God as just one more thing to do on our already long list of “Christian to-do’s” – We read our Bible, pray, worship, and then move on with the rest of our day. But God showed me something deeper through this Gem. Our time with Him is not simply another activity. It is the spring itself.

                                                              Everything else flows from it.

                                                              Our peace flows from it.
                                                              Our wisdom flows from it.
                                                              Our strength flows from it.
                                                              Our ability to love others flows from it.

                                                              When we stay connected to the Lord, His life continually refreshes ours. But when we allow distractions to pull us away from Him, we often wonder why we feel dry, weary, discouraged, or stagnant.

                                                              In 2 Kings 2 today, Elijah’s earthly ministry was coming to an end. As he prepared to be taken into heaven, Elisha refused to leave his side. Again and again Elijah told him to stay behind, but Elisha remained close. He understood that what he needed most was not a position, title, or opportunity. He needed proximity to the presence and power of God.

                                                              Because he stayed close, he received a double portion of Elijah’s spirit and stepped into the calling God had prepared for him.

                                                              His blessing flowed from connection.

                                                              We see something similar in Acts 13 and 14. Paul and Barnabas faced opposition, rejection, and persecution as they preached the Gospel. Yet they continued moving forward because they were drawing from a source greater than circumstances. Their strength was not coming from public approval or favorable conditions. It was coming from their relationship with God.

                                                              Psalm 139 takes us even deeper. David marvels at the fact that God knows him completely. He cannot escape God’s presence, nor does he want to. Instead, he invites the Lord to search his heart, reveal anything that is not pleasing to Him, and lead him in the everlasting way.

                                                              That is the language of someone who cherishes God’s presence.

                                                              Not someone checking a box or merely fulfilling an obligation, but someone who discovered the spring.

                                                              I think one of the enemy’s most effective strategies is not necessarily to get believers to abandon God altogether. Often he simply fills our lives with enough distractions that we gradually spend less and less time with Him. The result is the same. The further we move from the spring, the drier we become.

                                                              Every day we are moving toward life or away from it. Every choice either draws us closer to the Source or distracts us from Him.

                                                              The beautiful news is that God is always inviting us back.

                                                              Will you stay by the Source and drink from His spring of living waters? πŸ’Ž

                                                              • β€œLord, what do You want me to know about this personally?”
                                                                • Journal what He gives you through His Holy Spirit.
                                                              • Then ask, β€œWhat do You want me to do?”
                                                                • Journal what He reveals – then do it!

                                                              Allow today be a day of refreshing and renewal with the Lord then stay close so you can keep coming back for more.

                                                              Prayer

                                                              Dear Lord, thank You for the gift of Your presence. Forgive me for the times I have allowed distractions, busyness, or other priorities to pull me away from You. Help me cherish our time together and recognize that You are the source of my life, peace, strength, and joy. Draw me closer to You each day, and teach me to protect the time we share. Refresh my soul from Your living spring and lead me in the everlasting way. In Your beloved name I pray, Amen.

GOD THE I AM is the only fortress in Whom we find a righteous protector, defender and provider. He is the only place of eternal refuge from the world’s continuing tragedies and chaos. He is the stronghold Who is and Who will provide peace, wisdom, understanding, instruction and endurance.

                                                                As waves of fear rolled nearer still, as deep its swell approached us nigh; our hearts near failed as we cried out, “O Lord, Your servants rescue now!” And crashed the waves of terror strong, our lives at risk — we knew death’s tide; yet stilled our hearts Your Glorious Word and on we clung and Truth prevailed.

                                                                As deep and dark, as depth of brine, we battled ‘gainst the foe’s onslaught; its torrents fierce as bounding main, — with cruelest rage this foe can slay. Yet in Your Will, O Saviour ours, Salvation’s Light’s our mighty Ark; afloat we stay midst evil’s gale, for You prevail within its rage.

                                                                Afloat we ride with knowledge sure, we look ahead with strength not ours; Endurance meets us Face-to-face, ’tis You our Strength our sure Bulwark, The fears we face — our spirit’s gain, makes strong we resolute of heart, to live God’s Will through providence — and triumph through His Will’s Intent.

                                                                β€œThe LORD is my Rock and my Fortress and my Deliverer, my GOD, my Rock, in whom I take refuge; my Shield and the Horn of my Salvation, my Stronghold. I call upon the LORD, WHO is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies. The cords of death encompassed me, and the torrents of ungodliness terrified me. The ropes of Sheol entangled me; the snares of death confronted me.
