Spirit of God

"The Lord is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid" - Isaiah 12:2 NKJV

Some of us plan our lives. There is nothing wrong with that apart from - will you be alive then? To be able to see your plan being accomplished?

No, I didn't think of that. 

Proverbs 27:1 says "Do not plan out tomorrow - for you know not what it brings". Most of the time, we want to be organised and planned out. That's fine when it comes to work, business etc. But it's not fine when we are in God's presence. We are supposed to let God be in charge when we are in His presence. Jesus said that when we should pray, we shouldn't let anyone see us. We shouldn't let anyone distract us either. Because Satan knows that when you are in God's presence, your fire kindles all the more. And he knows that when you meditate on the Word, the fire kindles more. So, he uses distractions. Here are a few:

  •  Looking out of the window 
  • Crying, shouting, arguing from another room 
  • Ringing phones
  • Anything, really
When you are in God's presence, those things don't mean anything anymore. Hallelujah! You may of course hear them, but you are so...'wrapped up ' should I say in the presence of God. The presence of God lives in us. How? Because God lives in us. Take a look: 
"I will not leave you comfortless, I will come to you" - John 14:18 
Jesus said, HE WILL COME TO US. HOW? THROUGH THE HOLY GHOST!!!!! 
The Holy Ghost, Jesus and God are all God, and do not 'make up' God as some Pastors may preach. God's presence is more valuable than we think. When we are in the presence of God, there's no room for nonsense. God's presence follows those who he really dwells in, and their behaviour reflects it too. They now carry the spirit of God wherever they go! We clearly do not deserve to be in God's presence - after all we've all sinned (Rom 3:23). We should be grateful, and always be in fellowship with God

Revere Christ as Lord!

"But in your hearts revere Christ as Lord. Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect." - 1 Peter 3:15. Whenever we are being trialled or tested for our faith, we should never deny it. Take the opportunity to tell them about God. Preach to them and give them the chance to hear about God. It may work, it may not. But all you know is, you accomplished your part of the mission. You've preached to them. Now it's there decision to come to Christ. Notice the Bible says do it with GENTLENESS. We don't use violence to try and preach the Gospel. We don't force people to believe in our reality. We use one of the fruit of the spirit (See Galatians 5:22 for a full list) Now you may wonder why Peter says 'with respect' when God says: "Then Peter opened his mouth, and said, Of a truth I perceive that God is no respecter of persons:" - Acts 10:34.
“Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture.” ‭‭Psalms‬ ‭100:3‬ ‭NKJV‬‬ http://bible.com/114/psa.100.3.nkjv

Most Powerful

8 I have set the Lord always before me: because he is at my right hand, I shall not be moved. (‭Psalms‬ ‭16‬:‭8‬ KJV) In this verse, David is actually having a revelation about Jesus from the Holy Ghost. Let me explain. You see- as Christians, Jesus is the one who is before us. The One we follow. He is at our right hand and protects us. And because of Him, we are not moved. The Lord is you Leader, Provider and Guide. Without him, your steps would be without guide and you would have no knowledge of the path you are taking. You would be vulnerable to Satan and he will be able to destroy you. But-thank God- he can't destroy us. Christ lives in us, the most powerful Thing ever!
