PSALM 16:11
Beloved children of God, you can either seek God’s presence or He may decide to
honor you with His presence like He did with Moses because He has an
assignment for him (Exodus 3). Either way, there are tremendous benefits to it.
That is why every child of God must be conscious of His presence and be
expectant each time they are before the Lord, either while praying, studying the
Bible, (Isaiah 1 :18) in a family fellowship, school fellowship, departmental prayer
meeting etc. Wherever two or three are gathered in His name, He’s always there.
God’s presence is everywhere, (Psalm 139 :8-10) in heaven and on earth. God is
present wherever His name is.
In God’s presence, there is Protection, (Psalm 91 :1), problems melt like wax
before fire, (Psalms 91:1). In His presence there is rest and joy forever, sins are
forgiven in His presence. There is direction in God’s presence for anyone desirous
of guidance through the journey of life. Whatever a man desires, he can have it in
the presence of the Lord.
However, you cannot enjoy any of these benefits if there is no agreement with
the Holy Spirit and your spirit that you are a child of God (Romans 8:16). You must
be born again before any of these benefits can be yours.
Are you a child of God?
