Before the Throne of God
Therefore, “they are before the throne of God and serve him day and night in his temple; and he who sits on the throne will shelter them with his presence. ‘Never again will they hunger; never again will they thirst. The sun will not beat down on them,’ nor any scorching heat. For the Lamb at the center of the throne will be their shepherd; ‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’ ‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.” (Revelation 7:15-17)
God's plan is for you to be before the throne. You might say, “I'm trying to find my place in life, and find my direction.” Nothing else will line up in your life until you get before the throne.
For many of us, we try to straighten ourselves up, but we don't have the ability. We try to reason ourselves into the frame of reference that our minds need to have, but that doesn't stick. You must be before the throne, and that is an invitation to you as a child of God. If there is anything wrong in your life, any unsettling things in your life, or a lack of peace in your life; you have probably lost your place before the throne. Get back there and get back as quickly as you can, because we are to be under His watchful care. Scripture dictates this.
We are to serve in His temple “24/7.” That is God's plan for your life; your life belongs to Him. You must be willing to serve in His house, to honor and glorify Him. For you who are “saved and seated,” but not serving, God wants you to be in service. He wants you to find what He has for you to do right now before the Lord. That is His plan. He is the One who covers you in His tent. This is a description of provision protection, because He will provide for you to be completely protected by His hand.
The greatest place you could ever be is in the center of the will of God. When you are in the center of God’s will, you can handle the difficult times. I would rather be in the center of the will of God and go through difficult times, than go through difficult times in the center of my own will. I pray that you desire this right now. If you are going through a turbulent time in your life, lean in to the presence of God rather than pulling away. This is the time to press in to the Word of God and the presence of God as never before. You will always need Him. I pray you will acknowledge that need today and express it to your Heavenly Father.

Praying every day to do The WILL of GOD. Thank YOU JESUS Glory.to GOD !
Praying that the Lord would keep me from an attitude of ingratitude..
I pray 🙏 to God everyday that I stay in His will. I do have times when I feel like I am wavering and I talk to God about it and He assures me of His love 💘. I never want to do anything unless He is directing me.
