Keep lamp burning

Lev:24:2 Keep the lamps continually burning.

One of the permanent job required of Aaron and his sons was to make sure they keep the lamps in the lampstands in front of the Tabernacle burning continually - day and night shifts were employed.

The responsibility was the priest's to keep it burning.

A God who brought down fire 🔥 from the heavens to burn down Elijah's altar, is He not able to burn this lamp continuously? But God wanted man to take up responsibility.

To keep your lamp burning is your responsibility dear one.

How do I grow in my relationship with God? It is by investing in knowing Him.

 Imagine the first time you feel in love - you wanted to know more of her, you wanted to talk to her, you wanted to tell her more about you, everything concerning you. This wanting to spent time with her was motivated by love. 

To be rich in your relation with God, you need to invest more, for investing more you need to be motivated by love and for being motivated by love you need to recognise the depth of His love.

The more we realize the depth of His love, the more we want to spent time with Him and that helps us to understand more of Him. A continuum.

I'm not talking about spending your time with God in the morning or evening and labelling it as quiet time or prayer time. It is more than that.when you fell in love, were you not always thinking of her? Did you keep a check of time.

What songs do you hear?

What books or articles do you read?

What entertains you?

Oh then life becomes so saintly and dull and without much fun. Is it?

Let me tell you- it only becomes more exciting when you are in harmony with the master planner.

May God help you.
