Matthew 27:51

June 17

Matthew 27:51 And, behold, the veil of the temple was rent in twain from the top to the bottom; and the earth did quake, and the rocks rent; (KJV)

Is the veil still in place in your life?

A veil is most often used to conceal what is underneath. The devil is good at placing veils over your eyes and your heart.

2 Corinthians 4:3-4 But even if our gospel is [in some sense] hidden [behind a veil], it is hidden [only] to those who are perishing; 4 among them the god of this world [Satan] has blinded the minds of the unbelieving to prevent them from seeing the illuminating light of the gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God (AMP)

The devil is not more powerful than God.

2 Corinthians 4:6 For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. (AMP)

Is there anything that could stop God from granting you access to Him? How far would He go? The answer is, there is nothing that could stop Him from being available to you. He went all the way to the death of His only son, that’s how far. It is really unimaginable, the majesty and the power. He revealed The Holy of Holies to everyone. No longer separated in the outer court. You have entry into the mercy seat.

Romans 3:25 Whom God put forward [before the eyes of all] as a mercy seat and propitiation by His blood [the cleansing and life-giving sacrifice of atonement and reconciliation, to be received] through faith. This was to show God’s righteousness, because in His divine forbearance He had passed over and ignored former sins without punishment. (AMPC)

Jesus’ crucifixion tore the veil that hid God’s true image. His resurrection, which made provision for salvation, tore the veil separating you from the Lord as well. Make sure you have not allowed the devil to put it back. Shake yourself at the root and break up the stones in your heart. Purpose to walk in the authority and power that Jesus’ death bought.

Please agree with me as I pray. Then ask the Lord what your prayer should be and wait for His response:

Father, You are not hidden behind a veil. Thank You for freedom and access to You. Nothing separates me from You. As I’m praying, I think about the things I wish I had done differently. I repent for the wrong choices. If I could, turn back time, I would not make the mistakes and You would not have had to know what they were. I would erase every thought and every word I said that was not pleasing to You. I can’t and You know everything, my actions, my thoughts and my words. You have always had access to me. And even as I am praying, You are reminding me; I don’t have to turn back time. You’ve already but every mistake into the sea of forgetfulness. To say I am appreciative is not enough. I’m grateful doesn’t get it done. Thank You does not measure up. I don’t have words. I need You to please look into my heart and see I am glad You know what is there. I will still say, Thank You Father. You have given me deeper revelation of my access to You. There is power and authority in Your presence, which I can call upon only when I stand pure before You, not trying to hide anything. I must confess all, then You can forgive me and cleanse me. I want the treasure You placed within me to be revealed. Please continue to shake me until everything that is not like You falls off. Thank You for it…
