“We give thanks to You, O God, we give thanks,
For Your name is near….” Psalm 75:1
Such great encouragement and hope to know this!
The psalmist, speaking to God, says:
But as for me, the nearness of God is my good; I have made the Lord God my refuge, That I may tell of all Your works. Psalm 73:28
How blessed is the one whom You choose and bring near to You To dwell in Your courts. We will be satisfied with the goodness of Your house, Your holy temple. Psalm 65:4
He is as “near as the mention of His name”.
The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, To all who call upon Him in truth. Psalm 119:18
Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near. Isaiah 55:6
He invites us to call on the only Name that can truly save, satisfy, help, deliver, provide, give wisdom and comfort.
Draw near to God and He will draw near to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double-minded. James 4:8
…He is able also to save forever those who draw near to God through Him (Jesus Christ), since He always lives to make intercession for them. Hebrews 7:25
Don’t miss this kind, Sovereign invitation. Again, seek the Lord while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near. He is near, NOW, for you, in every concern, fear, disappointment or loss. He is true and will not disappoint.
Be blessed!
