STAY IN AND ENJOY HIS PRESENCE

In this Year 2022, the need to exercise your faith in God is a great tool to enjoying His great presence in all you do. When you lack God’s faith you have fear. When you lack God’s presence, there is no way struggling in life will not be reckoned with you. Do everything within your capacity and pay every price you need to pay for God to be with and remain in you as a believer. There are a whole lot of benefits for those who carry His presence. “And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest…” Exodus 33:14-15

Do you now desire His Presence in your life? In Matthew 11:28-30, Jesus promises rest to those who come to Him. The rest here is an all-encompassing one. Are you burdened with a particular care? Are your hairs growing grey because of the burden? What you need is the divine presence,

for there is rest for you in God’s presence. If God is with you, it will show in the level of rest you enjoy. You cannot have Him with you and you remain troubled. Do you need true rest in every area of your life and ministry? Ask for God’s presence as never before. The truth is, you will continue to carry your burden all alone when you decide to ignore His Word. You may soon become “I shall die” if you fail to have “El Shaddai-the Almighty” in your life

Another benefit of God’s presence is that it is a mark of God’s favour (Exodus 33:16). Is God with you? Oh, how favoured you are! In addition, God’s presence with you is a mark of Heaven’s recognition. In Exodus 33:17, God told Moses: “I know you by name”. Every Born-again Christian ought to enjoy this level of intimacy with God, for Paul writing to the church at Galatia said: But now, after that ye have known God, or rather are known of God…? Galatians 4:9 If God is with you, be prepared to see what eyes have not seen.

Prayer: In every area I am troubled or disturbed, Father, give me rest today through Your presence
