One of the benefits of having a close personal relationship with GOD through Christ is the sense of his presence when we are in prayer, reading the Word, or in worship with fellow believers. “Christ in you the hope of glory”(Col 1:27) becomes more real when you sense his presence. It is real and palpable, unmistakable.
Every believer at some point in their walk has experienced this, some daily, some occasionally. One way I know that I am outside His will or have some unconfessed sin is that his presence is not felt as strongly, or not at all.
The best way to grow in faith is to read the Word. It is also the best way to feel his presence and grow closer since GOD Talks to us through his Word. When we talk to Him through prayer the communication is both ways and complete.
While the Temple and the Tabernacle of the Lords’ presence in the Holy Of Holies no longer physically exist, the tabernacle of his presence resides in each and every born again believer. Feed on the Word to reap the maximum benefit of this relationship.
Until the next time, May the LORD bless us and keep us, in Jesus name I pray.
