Salome had so many issues on her mind that she was shocked when she caught a glance of herself in the mirror, “Oh no, a frown has become a permanent feature on my face!”
During lunchtime at the office, she locked herself into one of the storerooms with her Bible. She started reading Psalm 91 but verse 1 caught all her attention: He who dwells in the secret place of the most High, shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty (NKJV).
“Wow, Lord, I wish I knew where to find Your secret place, I desperately need Your guidance. Is that place somewhere in a garden close by, a church perhaps? Where is Your secret place?”
“Salome, do you regard yourself as a son of God?” Jesus asked.
“I am a woman, Lord, a daughter of God indeed.”
Jesus smiled as He replied, “Son in this instance is meant child of God. Yes, you are His daughter which makes you one of the sons of God.”
“You believe in Me, the light of this world and because you do, you have become a child of light, John 12:36
qualifying you to be a child of God.”
“There is one thing you need to realise, Salome; you have to listen to the Spirit of God every day for as many as are led by the Spirit of God, these are sons of God.” Rom:8:14.
“Yes, Lord, but how?”
“That is actually very easy, My child. When you started to believe in Me, God sent His Spirit into your heart and now you may call God, “Abba, Father” (Gal 4:6)
. The secret place of the most High is inside your heart, where the Holy Spirit dwells.
“So many children of God with the secret place of the most High inside of them, live their lives completely on their own, disregarding His presence!“
“Sometimes you feel lonely while surrounded by many. You have no idea how lonely the Holy Spirit feels inside of you when He is ignored by the person surrounding Him.”
“Do you realise that My purpose is to aid you, and not the angels?” Heb 2:16
“However, I cannot do that if you ignore the Spirit or Me. The Holy Spirit will guide you every day. He is living with you in your secret place, the place God prepared for you to have a relationship with Him 24/7.”
The frown gradually disappeared from Salome’s face while she clutched her Bible close to her heart. “Oh, thank You, Jesus! Holy Spirit, Your presence makes it possible for me to live under the shadow of the Almighty!”
