The blessings from following, from moving.

Seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness and the rest shall be added unto you. Matthew 6:33

I did not include any other references to these verses that are in this writing, because I want to exhort you that you would search the Scriptures and find things that are true, Jesus' words, His promises. Don't put a time on seeking Him, let Him keep you there for as long as it takes to search His word, to ask Him to speak to you, show you, quicken you. He is merciful and has great and precious promises He longs for any willing heart to hear.

Moving:
My flesh and doubts from the enemy kept me for a long while from seeing what His will was.
But the Lord in His goodness strove with me, not letting me go, instead speaking to my heart.
When I was finally willing to receive His direction, He answered.
In a moment I knew His will.
Even so, I was not prepared for the opposition that came to follow.
The appearance by sight, looking bleak.
But standing, yet wavering a few times at advice from others, only for Him to press even more on my heart to confirm His will, GO, still standing on where I knew He was leading, no matter the opposition that may come.
There is an adversary that opposes one who is willing to walk after Christ.
Many saying to seek comfort and security, knowing this is thinking and reasoning of the world not of Christ, not godly wisdom, but worldly wisdom no matter the source or the motive and sincerity of the source.

Listen to the call Jesus puts on His followers: Does this sound like comfort and security in this world that so many think you need?
Deny yourself, take up your cross daily.
Lose your life for My sake.
Whosoever therefore will be a friend of the world is the enemy of God.
Leave your dying father and come after Me-Follow Me and let the dead bury their dead.
There is no place for the Son of Man to rest His head-The Son of man hath not where to lay his head. If He had no place to rest His head what makes us think that we can have this and follow Him? We must bear the reproach of Him.
When He was filled with the Spirit He was led into the wilderness to be tempted. As we are many of the time.
Everyone seeking to live righteously will experience persecution and tribulation in this world.
If they persecuted Me they will also persecute you.
Do not marvel, My brethren, if the world hate you.
Go forth unto Him outside the camp to bear His reproach.
I send you forth as lambs among wolves.
Strait(difficult,narrow) is the gate, narrow(afflict,suffer,tribulation,trouble) is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. That rules out our modern day, world-loving and blending in with, cultural Christianity, now doesn't it?
Whoever shall be ashamed of Me and of My words, of him shall the Son of Man be ashamed, when he shall come in His own glory.
If we suffer with Him we shall reign with Him.
All that will live godly in Christ Jesus shall suffer persecution.
If any man come to Me, and hate not his father, and mother, and wife, and children, and brethren, and sisters, yea, and his own life also, he cannot be My disciple.
And whosoever doth not bear his cross, and come after Me, cannot be My disciple.
Counteth the cost.
These are hard sayings, yes, but search the Scriptures, THIS IS Jesus.
But if it is Him that is asking, what does it matter what possible cost there is? Where else will one go? He has the words of eternal life! He IS eternal life! What else is there to do but follow Him? Nothing in this world could compare to HIM!!
What makes us think that if the Son of Man bore these things and asked them in biblical days to do such things that we as Christians now can save our life and have Him as well. Is He not the same God today? What makes us think that real true Christianity now escapes the things Jesus said would come to him who is following Him?
For the kingdom of God is not meat and drink; but righteousness, and peace, and joy in the Holy Ghost. If ye abide in Me, and My words abide in you, ye shall ask what ye will and it shall be done unto you. But the Comforter, which is the Holy Ghost whom the Father will send in My name, He shall teach you all things, and bring all things to your remembrance, whatsoever I have said unto you. Peace I leave with you, My peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said I go unto My Father: for my Father is greater than I. If a man love Me, he will keep My words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him and make our abode with him. But now they desire a better country, that is, an heavenly: wherefore God is not ashamed to be called their God: for He hath prepared a city for them! This is so wonderful! These are the things that God is saying to those who are His!! Who continue with Him!! Who love Him!!! None of the world can even compare to this, to Him!

Moving Continued:
Leaving all for Him, where He was leading, no matter the cost.
Leaving behind any furniture (which was not much but whatever we had) and packing the car up, the rest tossing or selling.
Leaving behind family and friends.
Not sure how we will make it, not sure what He has there for us, but trusting in the Lord who is faithful.
Now here, the Lord has shown Himself FAITHFUL.
He has provided a FULLY furnished apartment completely by His free provision. The ability to show hospitality to whomever comes over.
Almost everyday He literally provides free food for us.
He has given us a family, brothers and sisters who love us dearly and are such a display of His love toward us, friends, discipleship. I LOVE our the precious family He has given us here. Everyday we are invited to fellowship, to pray, to worship, to sing hymns to the Lord, and to eat with our new family.
He has shown us what it is to truly follow Him leaving all things behind. How to seek Him.
He has delivered us from the world, and into His hands, He has received us because of His great mercies.
He is teaching us and growing us daily, breaking us, loving us, proving His faithfulness over and over again.
He has blessed us richly and abundantly, giving us joy and peace and fullness of life.
He is GREATLY to be PRAISED!!!
We can offer the sacrifices of praise! And of thanksgiving to Him who is Worthy!

In my distress I called upon the LORD, and cried unto my God: He heard my voice out of His temple, and my cry came before Him, even into His ears! Psalm 18
