“'Present your case,' says the Lord, 'bring forth your strong reasons', says the King of Jacob." Isaiah 41.21
The God of Abraham invites His people to come before Him and present their requests. It means, the King opens Palace doors to receive those who believe they will be heard; believe that their cause will be judged and justice will be done.
On the 23rd of September, the D-Day - the day of Difference, we will all have an excellent opportunity to see the fulfillment of the following prophecy:
"Then you shall again discern between the righteous and the wicked, between one who serves God and one who does not serve Him." Malachi 3.18
"I love those who love Me, and those who seek Me diligently will find Me." Proverbs 8.17
God is Love.
In practice, the result of this Love depends on the love He receives from the obedience to His Word.
The same is true in regards to having an encounter with Him.
Only those who seek Him wholeheartedly with all of their soul, with all of their understanding and with all of their strength will find Him.
"And according to the law almost all things are purified with blood and without shedding of blood there is no remission." Hebrews 9.22
During the times of the Old Testament, almost everything was purified through the sacrifice of blood. However, in the New Testament, the sacrifice of animals was canceled. But the sacrifice of faith was not and it requires action.
Without sacrifice there is no remission, no salvation and no achievements.
Whoever wants to be forgiven, must forgive (sacrifice). Whoever wants to receive, must give (sacrifice). Whoever wants to reap, must sow (sacrifice).
Therefore, it is impossible to take possession of God's promises without an act of sacrificial faith.
