Seek the Lord and His strength; seek His Presence continually! Psalms 105:4
Let us come into His Presence with thanksgiving; let us make a joyful noise to Him with songs of praise! Psalms 95:2
You make known to me the path of life; in Presence there is fullness of joy; at Your right hand are pleasures forevermore. Psalms 16:11
Now to Him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the Presence of His glory with great joy, to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen. Jude 1:24-25
What is the main thing we need? His Presence. It isn’t religious formulas, or will power, or great knowledge, or the right words… it is the living, abiding, Presence of Jesus … we need! That Presence which is seen as a wall of fire in the higher dimensions. His Presence IS what protects us from ALL the powers, weapons, and schemes of the enemies of our soul. Just as Jesus was with Mishael, Hananiah, and Azariah in the super-heated furnace, so Jesus will be with us. And we must have the same ‘terminally committed to Christ’ life as these three men did, as they said directly to the head earthly authority then, “O Nebuchadnezzar, we have no need to answer you in this matter. If this be so, our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the burning fiery furnace, and He will deliver us out of your hand, O king. But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods or worship the golden image that you have set up.” Daniel 3:16-18
His Presence within us is SEEN by those in the higher dimensions.
Then some of the itinerant Jewish exorcists undertook to invoke the name of the Lord Jesus over those who had evil spirits, saying, “I adjure you by the Jesus whom Paul proclaims.” Seven sons of a Jewish high priest named Sceva were doing this. But the evil spirit answered them, “Jesus I know, and Paul I recognize, but who are you?” And the man in whom was the evil spirit leaped on them, mastered all of them and overpowered them, so that they fled out of that house naked and wounded. Acts 19:13-16
It ALL about Jesus and His Presence. The Holy Spirit is ALWAYS pointing to Jesus! His Presence IS the Spirit of God! The mystery of the Triune God, where humility and love reigns! Our prayer lives should be about His Presence. Our prayer should be about magnifying His Presence in our lives and all around us.
With the time speeding up, and the days counting down, we need to be in His Presence. His Presence is to be with you in your ‘secret’ place, you need not seek His Presence elsewhere. Seek Him and His Presence in prayer when you are all alone.
Jesus tells us, “And when you pray, you must not be like the hypocrites. For they love to stand and pray in the synagogues and at the street corners, that they may be seen by others. Truly, I say to you, they have received their reward. But when you pray, go into your room and shut the door and pray to your Father who is in secret. And your Father who sees in secret will reward you.”
“And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.” Matthew 6:5-8
Ask Jesus to magnify His Presence within you today. Seek Him with your whole heart, mind, and soul.
