ABIDING IN GOD’S PRESENCE: IT’S ABIDING IN HIS WORD AND ABIDING IN HIS LOVE!

“If ye ABIDE in me, and my WORDS ABIDE in you, ye shall ASK WHAT YE WILL, and it shall be DONE unto you . . . 10 If ye KEEP MY COMMANDMENTS, ye shall ABIDE in MY LOVE; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and ABIDE IN HIS LOVE” John 15:7, 10.

It’s our moment of time to abide in God’s LOVE and His WORD in order to enjoy his presence; for it’s our PATH for the FULLNESS of JOY and PLEASURE for EVERMORE. For ABIDING in God’s presence, is to ABIDE in His WORD and to ABIDE in His LOVE – and there’s NOTHING else MORE or LESS to it.

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH OF LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND there are PLEASURES for evermore” Psalms 16:11.

Moses demands from  the Father God to show him “THE WAY” to life. In other words, “THE PATH” to true life that makes one to THRIVE, be FRUITFUL, be FULFILLED meaningfully in the FULLNESS of God’s grace and BLESSEDNESS.

“. . . 12 And Moses said unto the Lord, See, thou sayest unto me, Bring up this people: and thou hast not let me know whom thou wilt send with me. Yet thou hast said, I know thee by name, and thou hast also found grace in my sight. 13 Now therefore, I pray thee, if I have found grace in thy sight, SHEW ME NOW THY WAY, THAT I MAY KNOW THEE, THAT I MAY FIND GRACE IN THY SIGHT: and consider that this nation is thy people. 14 And he said, My PRESENCE shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest. 15 And he said unto him, If thy PRESENCE go not with me, carry us not up hence. . .” Exodus 33.

And as Moses did experience, we need to have and enjoy the PATH of life that brings about the FULLNESS of God’s joy and the PLEASURES that is evermore; and must determine with gracious hearts to abide in His presence.

And to ABIDE in God’s PRESENCES is to – ABIDE IN HIS WORD AND IN HIS LOVE – nothing more and Nothing less. This is the PATH and the HOW for an ONWARD and UPWARD trajectory to thrive, blossom, refresh and rejuvenate, in God’s gracious presence in Christ Jesus stead. Amen. And the knowing that we are called to a place of FELLOWSHIP in Christ Jesus, in order to enhance our redeemed RELATIONSHIP, should make us wants to abide in His presence by His WORD and His LOVE, for He’s a FAITHFUL God to keep us in His BLESSEDNESS.

“God is FAITHFUL [He is reliable, trustworthy and ever true to His promise—He can be depended on], and through Him you were CALLED into FELLOWSHIP with His Son, Jesus Christ our Lord” 1 Corinthians 1:9/Amplified.

“FAITHFUL and absolutely trustworthy is He who is calling you [to Himself for your salvation], and He will do it [He will fulfill His call by making you holy, guarding you, watching over you, and protecting you as His own]” 1 Thessalonians 5:24/Amplified.

“Let us seize and hold tightly the confession of our hope without wavering, for He who promised is reliable and trustworthy and FAITHFUL [to His word]” Hebrews 10:23/Amplified.

Therefore, ABIDE in God’s LOVE and His WORD in order to enjoy his PRESENCE – it’s your path for the FULLNESS of JOY AND PLEASURE for EVERMORE in Christ Jesus stead. Amen.

“. . . 4 ABIDE in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it ABIDE in the vine; no more can ye, except ye ABIDE in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that ABIDETH in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing. 6 If a man abide not in me, he is cast forth as a branch, and is withered; and men gather them, and cast them into the fire, and they are burned. 7 If ye ABIDE in me, and my WORDS ABIDE in you, ye shall ask what ye will, and it shall be done unto you. 8 Herein is my Father glorified, that ye bear much fruit; so shall ye be my disciples. 9 As the Father hath loved me, so have I loved you: continue ye in my love. 10 If ye keep my commandments, ye shall ABIDE in my LOVE; even as I have kept my Father’s commandments, and abide in his love. 11 These things have I spoken unto you, that my joy might remain in you, and that your joy might be full. 12 This is my commandment, That ye love one another, as I have loved you. 13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends. 14 Ye are my friends, if ye do whatsoever I command you . . .” John 15:1-16.

IN GOD’S PRESENCE: BE AN ABIDING DWELLER NOT A VISITING GUEST!

“As the deer PANTS for the water brooks, So PANTS my soul for You, O God. 2 My soul THIRSTS for God, for the living God. When shall I come and appear before God? . . .” Psalms 42:1-11/NKJV

“If ye ABIDE in me, and my words ABIDE in you, ye shall ASK what ye will, and it shall be DONE unto you” John 15:17.

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH of LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND there are PLEASURES for evermore” Psalms 16:11.

The Scriptures says, that it is they that DWELL in God’s PRESENCE – the secret place of the most high – consistently and diligently, that can abide under the shadow of His wings. For in the PATH of LIFE, it’s only in God’s PRESENCE, there’s the FULNESS of joy and PLEASURES forever more.  For God REWARDS those who DILIGENTLY stay in to seek Him without a shadow of doubt and turning – Hebrews 11:6; Psalms 91:1; Psalms 16:11.

Therefore, stop being a VISITOR and a VISITING GUEST into God’s PRESENCE, if you desire the FULNESS of His enabling GRACE and BLESSEDNESS. Be a DWELLER and ABIDING person, so that His ABIDING WINGS will take you along in LIFE and GODLY living.

There’s nothing as gracious and graceful in abiding in God’s PRESENCE 24/7. Do you mean 24/7 in His presence? YES! It’s not about sleeping in the Church building or locking up yourself only in any secluded place – it’s about living in the abiding CONSCIOUSNESS of His bids and leads in every aspects of DOING LIFE AND GODLY LIVING – and this is made possible, by the Holy Spirit that’s given to us and that dwells in us, in Christ Jesus stead. For it’s not about just HAVING the Holy Spirit in you but about being LED by Him in His CONSCIOUS PRESENCE in you, in Christ Jesus stead. Make it your daily goal, you will not have any cause to regret it. Romans 8:14-17.

“Thou wilt shew me the PATH of LIFE: in thy PRESENCE is FULNESS of joy; at thy RIGHT HAND there are PLEASURES for evermore” Psalms 16:11.

“Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God. 16 And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that DWELLETH in love DWELLETH in God, and God in him. 17 Herein is our love made perfect, that we may have boldness in the day of judgment: because as he is, so are we in this world” 1 John 5:15-17.

“For as many as are LED by the Spirit of God, they are the sons of God. 15 For ye have not RECEIVED the spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have RECEIVED the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth WITNESS with our spirit, that we are the children of God: 17 and if children, then heirs; heirs of God, and joint-heirs with Christ; if so be that we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified together” Romans 8:14-17.

“And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is GIVEN unto us” Romans 5:5.

“As the deer PANTS for the water brooks, So PANTS my soul for You, O God. 2 My soul THIRSTS for God, for the LIVING God. When shall I come and appear before God? 3 My tears have been my food day and night, While they continually say to me, “Where is your God?” 4 When I remember these things, I pour out my soul within me. For I used to go with the multitude; I went with them to the house of God, With the voice of joy and praise, With a multitude that kept a pilgrim feast. 5 Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God, for I shall yet praise Him. For the help of His countenance. 6 O my God, my soul is cast down within me; Therefore I will remember You from the land of the Jordan, And from the heights of Hermon, From the Hill Mizar. 7 Deep calls unto deep at the noise of Your waterfalls; All Your waves and billows have gone over me. 8 The Lord will command His lovingkindness in the daytime, And in the night His song shall be with me— A prayer to the God of my life. 9 I will say to God my Rock, “Why have You forgotten me? Why do I go mourning because of the oppression of the enemy?” 10 As with a breaking of my bones, My enemies reproach me, While they say to me all day long, “Where is your God?” 11 Why are you cast down, O my soul? And why are you disquieted within me? Hope in God; For I shall yet praise Him, The help of my countenance and my God” Psalms 42:1-11/NKJV.

Moses demands from the Father God to show him the “WAY” to life. In other words, the “PATH” to true life that’s thriving, fruitful, enjoyable, fulfilling and enduring with the fullness of God within.

And as Moses, to have and enjoy the PATH of life that brings about the fullness of God’s joy and pleasures that is evermore, you must determine with gracious hearts to abide in His presence.

And to abide in God’s presence is to – Abide in His WORD and in His LOVE. Nothing more and Nothing less. This is the how to thrive and rejuvenate in God’s gracious presence.
