CHANGED IN HIS PRESENCE<br />
life, not to have a m<strong>in</strong>istry or travel the world<br />
preach<strong>in</strong>g the gospel. Our call<strong>in</strong>g is hol<strong>in</strong>ess, our<br />
m<strong>in</strong>istry is worship.<br />
But seek first the k<strong>in</strong>gdom of God and <strong>His</strong><br />
righteousness, and all these th<strong>in</strong>gs shall be<br />
added to you (Matt. 6:33).<br />
God wants you to seek hol<strong>in</strong>ess that comes<br />
from Him and not by works. God will only expect<br />
of us what He himself has given.<br />
There is such a deep hunger <strong>in</strong> the church<br />
today for more of the hol<strong>in</strong>ess of God. People are<br />
cry<strong>in</strong>g out for change. They want to be more like<br />
Him. New songs are be<strong>in</strong>g given by the Holy<br />
Spirit filled with a holy passion and desire to be<br />
more like Jesus.<br />
It is God who puts the yearn<strong>in</strong>g and desire <strong>in</strong><br />
our hearts to be holy, and He is the one who<br />
satisfies that desire.<br />
And a highway will be there, a roadway,<br />
And it will be called the Highway of<br />
Hol<strong>in</strong>ess.<br />
The unclean will not travel on it,<br />
But it will be for him who walks that way,<br />
And fools will not wander on it.<br />
No lion will be there,<br />
Nor will any vicious beast go up on it;<br />
These will not be found there.<br />
But the redeemed will walk there (Is. 35:8-<br />
9, NAS).<br />
This is an <strong>in</strong>credible visual picture of<br />
hol<strong>in</strong>ess. The road to hol<strong>in</strong>ess will keep you away<br />
from devour<strong>in</strong>g lions (the devil, see 1 Pet. 5:8).<br />
