Look! Listen! GOD’s arm is not amputated—he can still save. GOD’s ears are not stopped up—he can still hear. There’s nothing wrong with God; the wrong is in you. Your wrongheaded lives caused the split between you and God. Your sins got between you so that he doesn’t hear. Your hands are drenched in blood, your fingers dripping with guilt, Your lips smeared with lies, your tongue swollen from muttering obscenities. No one speaks up for the right, no one deals fairly. They trust in illusion, they tell lies, they get pregnant with mischief and have sin-babies. They hatch snake eggs and weave spider webs. Eat an egg and die; break an egg and get a snake! The spider webs are no good for shirts or shawls. No one can wear these weavings! They weave wickedness, they hatch violence. They compete in the race to do evil and run to be the first to murder. They plan and plot evil, think and breathe evil, and leave a trail of wrecked lives behind them. They know nothing about peace and less than nothing about justice. They make tortuously twisted roads. No peace for the wretch who walks down those roads!

Sometimes we all feel far away from God. It is natural for us to have times when we don’t experience the intimacy we desire. But often there are reasons why such a distance occurs in our lives. Our sin, our idolatry, and our lack of trust can create a rift. Let Tony Evans, bestselling author of Kingdom Men Rising, show you the way to draw close to God again.

God does all the heavy lifting in our relationship with Him. He sent Jesus to save us. He gives us the faith to believe. He gives us the ability and desire to obey, but He doesn't make us do anything. To experience God, we must choose Jesus. When we do, God saves us, sets us apart, helps us grow, and rewards our surrender with an inheritance that never fades.

Prayer is a privilege that God gives to his children. He is our Father, and because we have that relationship to him through Jesus, we can approach him with anything. He wants to hear from you!
How would it change your life and attitude if you actually thought about this sentence every day? Your God is here with you. He promises to be with you always—in good and in bad. How cool is that!
