Psalm 27:4 One thing have I desired of the Lord , that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the Lord, and to enquire in his temple.
I feel David’s passion to dwell in the Lord's house---to be where the Lord is honored and where He is worshiped. I love my church because that's where I find that place of closeness and intimacy with Him through the Holy Spirit. What an Awesome God we serve. We linger in His presence and fellowship before and after service. We hate to leave.
If there’s a genuine desire to be near The Lord, seek that place and commit to prayer and Bible study. Commit to public and private worship. Those who want to linger near the Lord will find a way. When we make a move toward Jesus, He will make a move toward us, James 4:8.
Satan loves to muster strife or bickering in the Lord’s house. He's looking for someone who will let Him. If believers obey the new commandment Jesus gave to His disciples in the Upper Room, that won’t happen.
John 13:34-35 A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another. By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another.
