The Presence of the LORD

 By Pastor Mike

We all need to realize that the presence of JESUS is everywhere at the same time. People wonder “How can this be?” Because HE is GOD Almighty.

Psalm 46:1-3

God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Therefore will not we fear, though the earth be removed, and though the mountains be carried into the midst of the sea; Though the waters thereof roar and be troubled, though the mountains shake with the swelling thereof. Selah.

Whatever troubles or trials you’re having. Whatever valleys you’re in. The presence of the LORD is right there to get you through anything and everything. We have to believe that because it’s in HIS WORD. HE is always with us and HE is in us. We need to expect HIM to get us through it because HE is a great GOD.

Psalm 95:1-3

O come, let us sing unto the Lord: let us make a joyful noise to the rock of our salvation.  Let us come before his presence with thanksgiving, and make a joyful noise unto him with psalms. For the Lord is a great God, and a great King above all gods.

HE is a great GOD. We are in HIS presence right now and in HIS presence when we leave here. When we get in the car. When we get home. When we are at work. When we are at the stores.

Psalm 139:7-10

Whither shall I go from thy spirit? or whither shall I flee from thy presence?  If I ascend up into heaven, thou art there: if I make my bed in hell, behold, thou art there. If I take the wings of the morning, and dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea; Even there shall thy hand lead me, and thy right hand shall hold me.

You can never hide from JESUS. HE knows where we are, what we say, what we think. People think that they can hide things from their friends or spouses. Maybe they can but you can’t hide from GOD. That’s not a bad thing. That just makes me want to the best I can and live a Holy life pleasing to HIM. I mess up but I run right back into HIS loving arms. HE will never condemn us. Maybe our family and friends will, but JESUS never will.

Romans 8:1-2

There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
