Zechariah spoke this prophecy, "Blessed is the Lord, the God of Israel………for He has raised up for us a power of salvation….to serve Him in holiness and virtue in His Presence all our days
Luke 1:68-69

As holiness is the gift bestowed on all who all who faithfully pursue their way in the power of My indwelling and through the light and guidance of Our Holy Spirit so is it the condition of all who rejoice in the Father's presence. And the joy of His glorious, ineffable presence is shared by all who are perfected in and through My saving love. These are the sanctified of all times and places and peoples who serve Him in endless praise.

But such is the Father's love for the children of men that the joy and endless praise of the courts of His presence are tuned to the listening ears of His children on earth. Even so are the sanctified caught up in the power of salvation; and I am the power and glory of the Father in the world of His loving creation. In weakness and humility I am to be found, in the Bethlehems of all places and times. The crib of My entry into your life is the door to holiness, the cross of my suffering and death the means of entry.

Come, worship, adore, rejoice: "serve in holiness and virtue in the Father's presence" all your days.
