Sanctuary

 

    Sanctuary is a place of refuge, safety, or natural reserve.  All the modern definitions of sanctuary derive from the one that God created.  God's sanctuary is perfect and will never fall.  That means the covenant made through Jesus can be trusted.

    Sanctuary is where God is.  That means that if God lives in your heart, then your heart can be revived.  You can find sanctuary within instead of looking everywhere else.  Revival will affect you spiritually and emotionally because God always leaves an impact.

    When the Holy Spirit is thriving in your soul, you can expect to encounter God everywhere you look.  He is in the church today as long as it is a Biblically based church.  Your level of worship depends on your relationship with Him.  You should be experiencing your relationship with God, not just watching others worship.  Pray and seek to encounter God and you will find Him.

    God's sanctuary is home.  It is where your heart lives.  It is where you find family, belonging, and comfort.  It is a blessing to belong to God's family and belong in Heaven.  It gives you strength to follow Jesus.  It changes every aspect of your life.  

    Worship is the best medicine for a broken heart and hurting soul because you are inviting God to live in you.  Where God lives, there is no death, hate, or suffering.  God is seeking you out.  He has gone the majority of the way, you just have one step of faith to meet Him.
