We have to access God by inviting Him into our hearts, the affairs that we are tending to, this makes sure we are aware that we're asking for His guidance in what we are doing. So many times we go into situations and circumstances we think are minor or that we can easily control which end up controlling us, usually these are matters we kind of know they are fleshly led not really desiring the answer we know we will get from God.

We continue studying forming a relationship with God, where He's become a ever present help in time of need, He's the friend throughout the day that helps guides your decision making, that desires communication (prayer) from you. We have to see two walking together with the one choosing to become conformed to His God, just as He communed with Adam in the cool of the Day, we realize that He's available and there throughout the day.

In the presence of God is joy peace, comfort, security, fullness of Joy, pleasures forever more. We would all welcome that feeling in this life and the one to come, but by walking by faith, walking in the fulness of His promises, we can begin to practice that presence here and now, cause He said He would never leave or forsake us.

We see the Prophet Daniel confessing his sins and the sins of the people, asking God to be merciful to us. He cause us mourn and sigh for the things being done in the earth. when we began to bear the burdens of others, Realizing that whatever come what may we can do all things through Christ who strengthens me, giving me the opportunity to warn others of God's word. We as a Kingdom of Priest have to start to pray, teach and lead the people of God into the Kingdom of God.

Crying out to God is more than just praying to God, but a emotional, desperate, gut-wrenching, plead of urgency to come to the aid of the petitioner. It is being at the end of your rope with no other way out foreseeable or looking to but a exasperating call to the God where you you there's help, the one and only living and true God, The Deliverer,

We need to study about Josiah's life to try and find out about his teachers, his previous exploits of building, reforms and his other accomplishments to find out why He didn't seek the Lord's counsel on going to war with Pharaoh Necho. It was such a tragic end knowing he had access to Jeremiah, Zephaniah and Huldah the Prophets he consulted about the Book of The Law.

Josiah was the most righteous King that Judah had. He did not follow in the foot steps of his father and grandfather but as his father David. He did massive religions reforms, told down and burned the idols. Re-established a covenant with the people and God. Not knowing what happened why he didn't seek Jeremiah or Huldah or any of the prophets about Pharaoh Necho whether he was told of God to go to war.

Each day we have to make life and death choices as to life and death. We can choose life by denying self taking up our cross following after Jesus. We have to face a dying daily to self, that the New Man (Christ) may live His life through us as we present our bodies as living sacrifices. We are servants to who we yield our bodies to obey, whether to sin unto death or righteousness unto life.

We are born in bondage to sin, in which the Blood of Christ, His death on the cross purchased our freedom. He has set us free from sin, in which it use to be able to reign in our bodies, But now it has no longer any power over us but that we allow. Jesus imputed His righteousness to us justifying us placing us in right standing with God, our sins where atoned for in Him. He purchased (redeemed) us giving us eternal life.

We have become Bondservants (slaves) of Christ to do what is pleasing unto God which now causes us to have to mortify our members to unrighteousness, no longer yielding them to the bondage since we are now dead to sin, we can no longer serve it since we have a new master. We can not serve two masters, our loyalty now belongs to Christ, whom we are a new creation in, our bodies no longer belong to us.

We see where we have become bond-servants or slaves of righteousness when we enter into the covenant with Our Lord. It is being set at liberty from bondage to sin, to the liberty in Christ Jesus. we freely began mortifying our members not to yield our selves unto unrighteousness, for we are slaves to whom we yield our members to obey.

We need the imputed righteousness of God in Christ Jesus to rule and reign in life, which justifies us placing us in right standing with God. Having been made free from sin, we become slaves of righteousness, whereas we should no longer serve sin, but yield our members to righteousness to do good works glorifying God, presenting our bodies as living sacrifices unto Him. Being dead to the law, having been redeemed by the blood of Christ, resurrected in Him as new creation to walk in the newness of life.

The story of Job illustrates to us, that God has to come into our lives and shatter our self-righteousness, so that in humility serving Him as The Son of God who was a humble servant who never complained, non- accused God The Father falsely. It has taken me a many years to even began to see some of the depths of this story, God's Holy Spirit has to guide into this truth for Jesus to reveal it in the righteousness of Faith.

While Judaism focuses on the law and many American Christians are posting the Ten Commandments in classes, fighting those battles, but we are teaching about the Righteousness of God apart from the law. When we are saved by Grace through faith, He begins to write His laws on our heart, its the faith in Jesus, and not the deeds of the law.
