I just feel like the LORD is really showing  me how important reading His Word is. I am so guilty of just reading a couple chapters, and then putting my Bible down, and just going on throughout my day as usual. We need the realization that when we pick up the Word of God, He wants to encounter us through His Word. His Word is not something we just read a couple chapters of and call ourselves Christians for it. We are to deeply search it out, and encounter Jesus through it. His Word helps us pray, He gives us revelation on His Word, and that is how, I believe, we live. We can not live without His Word, without His presence, or without His love. Jesus is the Word of God made flesh, and in our time with Him as such He should be treated as such. We need to posture our hearts before Him in intercession, and thanksgiving, and in the deepest humility so that we can encounter Him. 

He doesn't reveal the deep things of His heart to those who are caught up in their own pride, but He shows Himself, and gives Himself to His bond-servants WITHOUT MEASURE.

I want Him without measure. 

I do not want my pride to hold me back from getting Him without measure.

The thing that blows my mind away is that He is so willing to give Himself to us. We are weak and broken, and lowly, but HE LOVE US. HE CREATED US. HE FORMED OUR VERY HEARTS.

He is the only One worthy of all of our praise and adoration. 

One more thing, and here is my question to you...

He wants us without measure, and when we give Him ourselves without measure in humility, then He will give us Himself without measure.

The question is, are we going to give ourselves to Him in complete humility so that we can have Him?
