There is No Place

There is no place so desolate that you cannot find Me there. When Hagar fled from her mistress, Sarah, into the wilderness, she thought she was utterly alone and forsaken. But Hagar encountered Me in the that desolate place. There she addressed Me as the Living One who sees me. Through that encounter with My Presence, she gained courage to return to her mistress.

No set of circumstances could ever isolate you from My loving Presence. Not only do I see you always; I see you as a redeemed saint, gloriously radiant in My righteousness. That is why I take great delight in you and rejoice over you with singing!

So she called the name of the Lord who spoke to her. You are a God of seeing for she said, Have I not even here in the wilderness looked upon Him who seeks me and lived? Or have I here also seen the future purposes or designs of Him who sees me? Therefore the well was called Beer-lahai-roi (A well to the living one who sees me).- GENESIS 16:13-14 

Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths, you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.- PSALM 129:7-10

"The Lord your God is with you, he is mighty to save. He will take great delight in you, he will quiet you with his love, he will rejoice over you with signing."- ZEPHANIAH 3:17

God is with us, always. Even when we do not want Him around, He is there. God is the presence that we can depend on in every waking hour, in the morning when we drive to work and in the night when we cannot fall asleep and it is 3 a.m. This may seem like a scary thought at first. I mean who wants someone looking over their shoulder 24/7, monitoring every move they make? But God is not just anyone. Like a parent watches over an infant, God is protecting us, His children. We must come to accept God as our savior and realize that He is our true Father in Heaven. This will help us delight in His presence and be quieted by His love.

So how do we become "delighted by His presence"? Get in the word. Add God to your live everyday so that you become to accept Him making a change in your life. Be open to His word and know that He knows what your best interest is. Let Him be in control and instead take the back seat in your life ride. We are his children, He will always watch over us.
