MOUNTAIN TOP LIFE, MFM DAILY DEVOTIONAL, TUESDAY 13 JULY 2021: His presence alone

TOPIC FOR TODAY: 13:7:21: His presence alone

By Dr D.K Olukoya General Overseer MFM worldwide

  

BIBLE IN ONE YEAR: Psalms 86, Psalms 87, Psalms 88, Psalms 89

FIRE SCRIPTURE: Gen 3:7-9

Memory verse: Exo. 33:15 

 “And he said unto him, if thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence.”

Motivational Quote: People don’t change; they reveal who they really are, because no one is really busy. It all depends on what number you are on their priority list.

Prophetic Word: Don’t be frustrated. You are in the presence of your maker, and He will raise your head up, in the name of Jesus.

The presence of God is felt all over the entire world. God is present in our lives but we do not always see His presence, because life’s distractions and calamities often shield us out of His voice. God did not design life to be lived alone. He put Adam and Eve in the Garden of Eden and would bring His presence down always to commune with them in the Garden (Gen. 3:8). The Bible describes man’s life as a walk with God. God’s presence was also with Enoch.

The Bible says Enoch walked with God. His presence was also with Noah who built God’s ark for 120 years. Abraham was called the father of all nations; God was in his life. I want you to always remember that a person can gain the presence of God and the same person can lose God’s presence. Sin and wilful disobedience are major reasons that people lose God’s presence. The benefits of having God’s presence are innumerable.

When you are lonely, His presence will cheer you up. When you are worried, His presence will calm you down. You don’t have to worry if God is with you in trouble. When you are tempted, His presence will help you out. You must always be conscious of His presence. Psalm 46:10 says, “Be still and know that I am God.” God’s presence will help you to develop a spirit of praise.

Psalm 22:3 calls God the One who inhabits the praises of Israel. God’s presence will bring you happiness (Psalm 126:2), holiness, because every time you are in His presence you are surrounded by thousands of angels. God is present in our lives, but sin cut it off in the life of Adam. His grace stepped in and paid the price. To overcome man’s sin and ensure his purposes are fulfilled, the creator became the Covenant Redeemer.

God did all of this so that He can be our God and we can be His people. God wants His presence to be with His people. In Exodus 29:45-46, He said He would dwell among the people of Israel and be their God, and they shall know that He is the Lord their God who brought them out of the Land of Egypt that He might dwell among them. Beloved, the purpose of the church is tied to the presence of God.

SPECIAL NOTE!

Beloved Reader, the sweetest way to enjoy all-round blessings from God in this Year 2021 is to make Jesus Christ your personal Lord & Saviour.  Remember! the Lord Jesus in John 3:3 says, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless ye are born again, ye cannot see the kingdom of God.”

Lord Jesus, I am a sinner. I confess all my sin, have mercy on me, forgive me all my sin. Give me grace to go and sin no more. I invite You, come into my life. I accept You as my Lord and Personal Saviour. I believe in my heart You died and rose from the dead to save me. Thank You Lord for saving me, in Jesus name Amen.

Beware! this period we are in today is fulfilling this saying of Jesus Christ:
“And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold,” Matt 24:12.

They will be defeated with prayer, because the God that answers prayer with signs & wonders is still alive.

In the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, & by the power in the Blood of Jesus, in this year 2021, you will never be a victim to whatever calamity, affliction, or tragedies flying around in the name of Jesus, Amen!
Shalom!
