ENTER IN - 1

ENTER IN - 1

Outside the gate:

You cannot SEE what is inside.

At the gate:

You can SEE to a certain extent the things and happenings inside
the gates. You may think you are inside. You are not really sure
because you know about the LORD and about His Kingdom. You
can see the experiences in others.

Enter in:

A very important key in your computer keyboard is 'Enter'.

It is one of the few longer keys other than the 'Space Bar'.

Many things you type on the keyboard or in many digital

machines are accepted when you press 'Enter'.

You also move to the next line or next step when you key in

'Enter'!

You know that entering in makes all the difference in your life.

You are experiencing the blessings of GOD’S Presence and

His Kingdom. You Know in your heart that you are inside!

 For when they speak great swelling words of emptiness,

 they allure through the lusts of the flesh, through lewdness, 

the ones who have actually escaped from those who live in error. 

While they promise them liberty, they themselves are slaves of
corruption; 

for by whom a person is overcome, by him also he is brought into
bondage. 

For if, after they have escaped the pollutions of the world 

through the knowledge of the Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, 

they are again entangled in them and overcome, 

the latter end is worse for them than the beginning. 

For it would have been better for them not to have known the way
of righteousness, than having known it, to turn from the holy
commandment delivered to them. 

But it has happened to them according to the true proverb: 

"A dog returns to his own vomit," and, "a sow, having washed, to
her wallowing in the mire."

2 Peter 2:18-22

Make sure you continue inside the gate and progress towards
the LORD.

Don’t turn back!!

In His Presence:

You are living and progressing in your spiritual life.

You are increasing in the knowledge of GOD.

You are enjoying a vibrant relationship with the LORD!

 And a certain man lame from his mother's womb was carried, 

whom they laid daily at the gate of the temple 

which is called Beautiful, 

to ask alms from those who entered the temple;

Acts 3:2

So he, leaping up, 

stood and walked and entered the temple with them-

-walking, leaping, and praising God.

Acts 3:8

Make a joyful shout to the Lord, all you lands! 

Serve the Lord with gladness; 

Come before His presence with singing. 

Know that the Lord, He is God; 

It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; 

We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. 

Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, 

And into His courts with praise. 

Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. 

For the Lord is good; His mercy is everlasting, 

And His truth endures to all generations.

Psalm 100:1-5

Therefore, since a promise remains of entering His rest,

 let us fear lest any of you seem to have come short of it.

There remains therefore a rest for the people of God. 

For he who has entered His rest has himself also ceased 

from his works as God did from His.

Hebrews 4:1,9-10

And so it happened to him,

 for the people trampled him in the gate, and he died.

2 Kings 7:20

Are you Outside the Gates of salvation?

Are you At the Gate?

Have you Entered His Gates?
