LIVE IN HIS PRESENCE AND FORGET YOUR SORROWS

Seek your happiness in the Lord, and he will give you your heart's desire.

Psalm 37:4 GNT

Think of how when we were little, we always sought the comfort of our parents especially when we were sick. We prefer sleeping in their rooms to sleeping in ours. Not that their presence actually heals us, but the solace was so awesome that we forgot that we were sick.

Beloved, irrespective of the sorrows of this world, practice staying in God's presence and they will flee away. Even though those troubles might still be there, we will no longer be worried about them, because of God's presence. David said about it, “I have set the Lord always before me; because he is at my right hand, I shall not be shaken. Therefore my heart is glad, and my whole being rejoices; my flesh also dwells secure.”

(Psalm 16:8-9 ESV)

Think of the Lord Jesus, amidst so much sorrows, insults and torments from sinners, He was still joyful for He was always conscious of the Father's presence. Hebrews 12:3 GNT says, “Think of what he went through; how he put up with so much hatred from sinners! So do not let yourselves become discouraged and give up.”

Just as Adam and Eve were not ashamed of their nakedness, until they left God’s presence. In the same way, though we might go through moments of sorrow and weeping, we will not feel them because of God’s presence in our lives. “ your presence fills me with joy and brings me pleasure forever.” (Psalm 16:11 GNT)

WE PRAY FOR THE GRACE TO PRACTICE LIVING IN GOD'S PRESENCE IN JESUS NAME AMEN!

THANK YOU JESUS!
