Acts 2:28 NIV
"You have made known to me the paths of life; you will fill me with joy in your presence.'"
Peter preached this in the first sermon after pentecost. They had just received the Holy Spirit and were speaking in everyones own language. Here, Peter quotes from Psalm 16:8, a truely amazing promise of what God will do if I am faithful to him.
When my relationship is right with God, I will know where he wants me to go and what he wants me to do. And when my relationship is right with him, I will delight in his presence, and really want to be with him in quiet time and in prayer, I hear and see him in people, experiences and my surroundings. But the only way these promises will happen for me is if I spend time with my Lord, quality time, to get to know him.
Lord that I may know you so well that I know your will and am willing to act on your desires and purposes, to affect your kingdom in some small way. Help me Lord to keep you as my priority. To you my Lord be the glory.
