Time to start going through another book by another author. After setting aside some other books and authors where the Lord wasn't leading me, I'm going to start a series of quotes from What Happened from the Cross to the Throne by E. W. Kenyon. For you Alliance readers, Kenyon (1867-1948) was a close friend of A.B. Simpson, and they often exchanged pulpits. E.W. Kenyon originated "positive confession" theology, and he is recognized as the forefather of the Word of Faith movement as it was originally taught. I quoted from this book around 2007, if you've been in this group for a long time.
In Hebrews 4:16, He has invited us to come with boldness unto the Throne of Grace.
That is the new Holy of Holies, the new Throne-room where we, as sons and daughters, have a standing invitation to come.
We not only come when our hearts are burdened with grief and need, but we come when our hearts are filled with joy and laughter.
We come when our hearts are filled with gratitude and love and praise.
Our Father is holding a reception all the time for us.
We go in there and make our requests known. We open our hearts to Him with fullest confidence.
We have Jesus' assurance, "Whatsoever ye shall ask of the Father in my name, He will give it to you."
We are His love children.
