In the Presence of God

The eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous And His ears are open to their cry.
Psalms 34:15 NASB

God is available. God is just a prayer away. And yet. . .
It brings me to tears when I think what little time is spent in the presence of Almighty God. I’m as guilty as anyone.

Prayer is drawing close to God, experiencing His presence. Prayer is where we pour out our life to be filled with His life. Prayer is connecting with our Lord and with one another when we gather in corporate prayer. It is where we find the heart of God.

O send out Your light and Your truth, let them lead me; Let them bring me to Your holy hill And to Your dwelling places.
Psalms 43:3 NASB

You will make known to me the path of life; In Your presence is fullness of joy; In Your right hand there are pleasures forever.
Psalms 16:11 NASB

For the eyes of the Lord are toward the righteous, And His ears attend to their prayer, But the face of the Lord is against those who do evil.”
1 Peter 3:12 NASB

Surely the righteous will give thanks to Your name; The upright will dwell in Your presence.
Psalms 140:13 NASB

🌹For You make him most blessed forever; You make him joyful with gladness in Your presence.
Psalms 21:6 NASB

Free Indeed

It was for freedom that Christ set us free; therefore keep standing firm and do not be subject again to a yoke of slavery.
Galatians 5:1 NASB

and you will know the truth, and the truth will make you free.”
John 8:32 NASB1995

🌹So if the Son makes you free, you will be free indeed.
John 8:36 NASB

There is nothing better. Keep seeking the true freedom found only in Jesus Christ.

God is True

If we receive the testimony of men, the testimony of God is greater; for the testimony of God is this, that He has testified concerning His Son. The one who believes in the Son of God has the testimony in himself; the one who does not believe God has made Him a liar, because he has not believed in the testimony that God has given concerning His Son. And the testimony is this, that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. He who has the Son has the life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have the life.
1 John 5:9‭-‬12 NASB

In Him (Jesus), you also, after listening to the message of truth, the gospel of your salvation—having also believed, you were sealed in Him with the Holy Spirit of promise,
Ephesians 1:13 NASB

who also sealed us and gave us the Spirit in our hearts as a pledge (down payment).
2 Corinthians 1:22 NASB

🌹He who has received His testimony has set his seal to this, that God is true.
John 3:33 NASB

Can you truthfully say, “God is true”?

Remain True

And working together with Him, we also urge you not to receive the grace of God in vain—
2 Corinthians 6:1 NASB

For we are God’s fellow workers; you are God’s field (cultivated land), God’s building.
