Meaning of dwell to live or continue in a given condition or state: to dwell in happiness. to linger over, emphasize, or ponder in thought, speech, or writing.
The word dwell is in the Bible approximately 510 times in Bible.
I have heard the statement that God dwells in me? But when we hear these words what does that truly mean? How? Just how does this happen? What about Jesus? What about the Holy Spirit? Won’t it be crowded in there ??
When we are searching for that missing piece in our lives I find we ask those types of questions.
But when you find Him. The word dwell takes on a new meaning.
I have found Him to be such a gentleman. And over time He has taught me that they are all one. So, when we open our hearts to Him ... Our souls become alive... It's at that very moment we began a journey of discovering the intricately woven details of our Heavenly Father, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit... It’s not something that is forced... It becomes such a spiritual love story between you and your Creator ... This relationship holds such magic, such intimacy. That we crave to dwell in the moments with Him. We began to linger on His every word. His Spirit breathes a new life into our souls with a love like nothing you have ever known...
It's at that very moment you realize that you can not live without Him in your life... So you commit your heart to Him and invite Him to dwell within you forever till the end of time ... Because life without Him would never be the same...
It’s Him, It’s always Him
He completes us...
“I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever; that is the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it does not see Him or know Him, but you know Him because He abides with you and will be in you. “I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you.” John 14:16-18 NASB
