When is “that day”? It is when the ascended Lord makes you one with the Father. “In that day” you will be one with the Father just as Jesus is, and He said, “In that day you will ask Me nothing.” Until the resurrection life of Jesus is fully exhibited in you, you have questions about many things. Then after a while you find that all your questions are gone— you don’t seem to have any left to ask. You have come to the point of total reliance on the resurrection life of Jesus, which brings you into complete oneness with the purpose of God. Are you living that life now? If not, why aren’t you?“In that day” there may be any number of things still hidden to your understanding, but they will not come between your heart and God. “In that day you will ask Me nothing”— you will not need to ask, because you will be certain that God will reveal things in accordance with His will. The faith and peace of John 14:1 has become the real attitude of your heart, and there are no more questions to be asked. If anything is a mystery to you and is coming between you and God, never look for the explanation in your mind, but look for it in your spirit, your true inner nature— that is where the problem is. Once your inner spiritual nature is willing to submit to the life of Jesus, your understanding will be perfectly clear, and you will come to the place where there is no distance between the Father and you, His child, because the Lord has made you one. “In that day you will ask Me nothing.”

Journal Entry for Today-JDV

Lord, one more time You have reminded and directed us to the importance of being connected to You; to the point where our questions about how you work in our lives and our world are no longer important. When we are connected to You we do not need the answers to our rational questions or the questions raised by our senses. Just knowing you are God and that You love us immeasurably is sufficient. We pray to stay curious about how you will deal with our day to day issues, but it is clear that when we are connected to You, we do not need the answers, we simply trust You and know that You are God and will meet all our needs.

And God says…”If our connection is based on faith, then why do my people continue to search for rational reasons and answers that satisfy their rational questions? If you could have all the answers, there would be no need for faith. And know that you must come to Me as a little child, full of faith and unconcerned with the rational. Delight yourself in Me, and I will give you the desires of your heart. Acknowledge Me in all your ways and I will make your paths straight. Seek first the Kingdom of God, which is Jesus, and I will provide everything else you need….and My provision, supply, and support, need not make any sense, it requires no qualification or quid pro quo. You do not have to “qualify” or be “good enough”. Simply trust Me, and know I love you beyond reason, and I offer you my love, forgiveness, power and grace sufficient to meet all your needs this day.”
