The classic is in Matthew 11:28. Come to Me, all who labor and are heavy-laden, and I will give you rest. Do we really believe and receive that? Take some.
Draw near to the throne of grace, confidently, that we may receive mercy and help in time of need. Hebrews 4:16. Drawing is Coming near. Take some.
Then there is: we who have fled for refuge in laying hold of the hope set before us. Hebrews 6:18. This is running into His presence, for shelter. Take some.
Rest, help and shielding. I need all these very often! If you Come near to God, you have to believe that He exists and ACTUALLY gives you the thing you need! Hebrews 11:6. I think I am not the only one who can use encouragement to grasp this REALITY FULLY.
A state of DWELLING in these realities is the desired result of constantly COMING to Him in daily need.
Believing is the only stipulation to transact receiving.
Seems so simple, so why are so many of us wiped out, striving alone and vulnerable to attacks? Umm.. we forgot, in our rushing around, to take some. I need them all RIGHT NOW! This is for me, I know.
