YOU ARE AS CLOSE TO THE FATHER AS YOU WANT TO BE

In the early days of our evangelistic travels, Arlis and I found ourselves on the East Coast of this great country. With a few days between commitments, we joined two of our best friends and headed for the Big Apple. New York City. Times Square. The Statue of Liberty. The Empire State Building. New York pizza.

And at the end of the day, Broadway and the hit show Evita.

What a whirlwind day that was, so much so it's still clear in my memory. As we stood in line at the ticket booth, I realized our limited finances as gospel ministers required us to purchase the ticket on the top balcony.

As we were ascending the levels of balconies, I knew now why they called it the "nosebleed section." My eyes were younger then, but I still couldn't recognize the faces I was looking at on the stage below me.

The sad point of this whole story is I wanted to be closer to the performers, but I couldn't afford the ticket.

The good news is that the ticket has already been paid for you to come as close as you want to your heavenly Father's throne and fellowship with him daily.

The Scriptures tell us that Jesus made a way where they had not been a way before. Men and women before the cross could not boldly come before the throne of God like Paul declares we can do.

Only after the resurrection could Jesus tell his disciples to ask largely from the Father, in the name of Jesus, and they would receive what they asked for.

There are no excuses not to be as close as you want to be to the Father of all spirits and the Savior Jesus Christ. After all, in Matthew 7:7, Jesus said, "Ask and keep on asking and it will be given to you seek and keep on seeking, and you will find knock, and keep on knocking at the door will be open for you."

Don't let anyone discourage you from having a private personal relationship with the Father, so wonderfully intense and sweet that you won't have words to express the joy of it all.

No one is in front of you; go on in. You're next in line.
