What do you think about when you lay in your bedroom? The bedroom is a place of intimacy. The moments when we are lying in our
bedroom
with private thoughts can be a
place
of dreaming of special relationships or maybe times of great loneliness. Ps
alm 6:6 "
I
water
my
couch
(bed)
with
tears."
When we are alone, such as in
our bedroom it is a time to be totally honest with ourselves and
carefully search
our
heart
to
be
sure
we
are
standing
in
awe
and
sinning
not.
Psalm
4:3-4 But know that the Lord hath set apart him that is godly for himself; the Lord will hear when I call unto Him.
Stand
in
awe
and
sin
not:
commune
with
your
own
heart
upon
your
bed,
and
be
still.
Maybe the
bedroom
has been
a
place
of temptation, or to
plan
revenge.
Events of the day, or even years of pain, may have brought you to bitterness or
anger. Alone, our emotions can escalate out of control. Have you ever heard, It will look differently in the morning?" Often it really will.
Know that God
does
not
get
offended
at
intense
emotions.
Our
emotions are safer
expressed to God than with anyone else.
Tell Him all about it. He wants to bring peace into your heart. You may need to repent, forgive, or hear His wisdom in a situation, or comfort, or direction.
David prayed, "Create in me a clean heart, O God; renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Psalm 51:10-11
We can
welcome
Holy
Spirit
to change us.
He
actually
knows
what is in our heart
better
than
we
know
ourselves.
What is in our heart can hurt us. What
we
think and say
and
do
can
all
be
influenced
by
what He says to us
when we will listen.
The
bedroom
is meant to be a wonderful place of
being
sealed
in
God's
love.
A place of sharing His great love and joy. Psalm
149:5
refers to singing on their beds, "Let
the
saints
be
joyful,
let
them
sing
aloud
on
their
beds,"
We
really
are
His
treasured
possession.
We
can
stand
in
awe
in
the
bedroom, a
safe
place,
a
place
of
joy
knowing our heart is intimate with God.
