TODAY’S TOPIC: Know you are in God's presence always
Text: Psalm 139:7-14(NIV):
"139:7. Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?139:8. If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
139:9. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea,
139:10. even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.
139:11. If I say, "Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,"
139:12. even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you.
139:13. For you created my inmost being; you knit me together in my mother's womb.
139:14. I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made; your works are wonderful, I know that full well."
SHOWER (Reflection):
It's a thing of joy for us to be reminded today that we are in the presence of God always. Our body is also His temple! He that created us in His likeness and love, has access to all we do. There is no one that can hide from Him. Is it in your house, business or where you think you can hide? From verses 7 to 8, you will see that it is impossible to hide from Him. That is why we need not fear who the world are, what the world do or try to do. Because in the presence of God, there is fullness of joy, liberty and favour. God will shield you always because you are His child. That is why bible also says we should pray without season. This also entails that you must shun and flee from all forms of evils always if you need His protection always. Joseph held unto this and was made king. What of Saul that became king even when there are others better positioned than Him. Or Saul that became apostle Paul (who probably didn't know that God was seeing all his plans against the children of God, and had to ambush him). David was in the bush enjoying his animals when God noticed his brevity and uprightness and ordered that he should be brought in and made a king... Brethren, we must hold unto God always. Don't treat him well or behave well only when you are in the church or prayer warrior. Let our yes always be yes and our no always be no whether we are in our closet or with unbelievers!!! Do it now and see how those who made themselves enemies unto you will be put into shame in Jesus name, Amen.
