"In Daddy-God's Presence"  (1 of 5)

We won't receive any greater invitation than to dwell (live and settle) "In Daddy-God's Presence".  

Our Great-Big, Loving and Caring Heavenly Father created us to dwell in His Holy presence. 
 
image Jesus on the Throne

Heb. 4:16- So let us come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most. (NLT) 

Because He loves us so very much, He desires to fellowship with us. It is through sharing this time with Him, we learn and are assured of His great love and delight of us.  

One way we accept our Lord's invitation is through spending time with Him in prayer. 

That special invitation allows us to talk face to face with Him and to share what is in our hearts. 

Yes, Daddy-God already knows what concerns us. 

However, He loves to hear our verbal voices, as well as the voice of our hearts.

 
 "IN DADDY-GOD'S PRESENCE " 
(2 of 5)

Daddy-God welcomes us with our self-centered, selfish and one sighted prayers. 

Yes, He even welcomes us with our wrong spirited and off-point prayers because they reflect the true condition of our hearts. 

However, Daddy-God knows that as we dwell in His presence, we will be challenged and changed with the truth He shares with us.  

God is Speaking- Are U Listening?

As we fellowship with Him, we are positioned to hear His voice of love, comfort, correction and assurance. 

"In Daddy-God's Presence", we learn the error of the content or wrong spirit of our prayers. 

In addition, when we fellowship heart to heart with Daddy-God, our hearts are softened, changed and aligned with His heart and plan. 

Example: When we first pray for the healing of close, critical loved ones, it is usually birth out of selfish reasons on our part, along with other reasons.

Example continue: We want them healed so that we won't have to experience the separation of death from them. 

Our initial prayer and focus is for our personal comfort and benefit.

We are overwhelmed by envisioning life without them. 

But by dwelling "In Daddy-God's Presence" and fellow-shipping with Him, our desire for what is best 
 
       for our loved ones begins to over-shadow our original self-centered desires.  

Our prayers, attitudes, out-looks, desires and decisions really can and will change "In Daddy-God's Presence". 

Instead of begging Daddy-God to (temporarily) heal our loved ones and keep them here in all of their on-going suffering and pain, we pray 

      even as Jesus did in Luke 22:42, "Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done- 

     (our cup of having to experience the sorrow of the death of our loved ones).

Rather "In Daddy-God's Presence", we begin to consider their on-going suffering. 

We learn to accept His offer of restful peace that will comfort our hearts, as well as His perfect plan for our loved ones. 

"In Daddy-God's Presence" through prayer, He teaches and equips us with the authority of 

dR tONY lEWIS PRAYING

        PRAYER-(P-POWER TO,  R-RISE- A-ABOVE - Y-YOUR, E- EVERY,  R- RIVAL)-

          every rival that comes to steal, kill and destroy our comfort; also, rivals which try to hinder and 

      deny us of our restful peace in EVERY SITUATION, which Jesus' death and Resurrection purchased for us. 

Even in the example of our critical loved ones, our rivals of fear, heartbreak, loneliness and selfishness are overcome. 

"In Daddy-God's Presence", we are empowered to courageously stand in authority against those self-serving emotions. 

We learn that Daddy-God never wanted us to suffer pain, tears, sickness, death or the separation from one another. 

However, those experiences came with the consequences of sin.  


     
" IN DADDY-GOD'S PRESENCE" 
 
(5 of 5)
 
So, to overcome those tough times in life, we must faithfully abide "In Daddy-God's Presence". 

Psalm 16:11-You will show me the way of life, granting me the joy of your presence and the pleasures of living with you forever. (NLT) 

"In Daddy-God's Presence", He assures us that no matter what we experience in life, He is faithful to His 
        promise never to leave nor forsake us. Heb. 13:5 (NLT) 

Prayer intercessory

He gives us the strength to face whatever we have to along our journeys of life. 

Daddy-God won't prevent the inevitable difficult experiences of the consequence of sin. 

However, through prayer He gives us the (P-POWER TO,  R-RAISE-  A-ABOVE- Y-YOUR,  E-EVERY,  R-RIVAL). 

So, let's quieten our hearts and spirits by accepting His invitation of dwelling in His presence. 

Let's pull our shoulders back and courageously face whatever we must experience in Jesus' mighty name. 


God bless you.

"If you have never known the power of God's love, then maybe it is because you have never asked to know it - I mean really asked, expecting an answer." 
Frederick Buechner

"God, Who is everywhere, never leaves us. Yet He seems sometimes to be present, sometimes to be absent. If we do not know Him well, we do not realize that He may be more present to us when He is absent than when He is present." Thomas Merton

"When Moses says, "Who am I that I should go to Pharaoh?" God answers not by telling Moses who he is, but by telling him who God is, saying, "I will be with you" (Exodus 3:12)"  Harold S. Kushner

"Why do some persons 'find' God in a way that others do not? Why does God manifest His Presence to some and let multitudes of others struggle along in the half-light of imperfect Christian experience? Of course the will of God is the same for all. He has no favorites within His household. All He has ever done for any of His children He will do for all of His children. The difference lies not with God but with us." A.W. Tozer

"More than happiness or joy or lower blood pressure, the practice of God's presence gives us meaning. Through this practice we become more closely aligned with Jesus and we learn His desire for us more completely. Life can be hard. The Practice of The Presence of God makes it easier. As Brother Lawrence said, "There is not in the world a kind of life more sweet and delightful than that of a continual conversation with God." David Paul Kirkpatrick
 
"If we must "feel" God's presence before we believe he is with us, we again reduce God to our ability to grasp him, making him an idol instead of acknowledging him as God."  Craig S. Keener

"The Lord watches over us every moment of every day. He is there--and He cares--about every step and every breath." Dillon Burroughs

"Life with God's presence is richer and more secured." Lailah Gifty Akita

"Selah Moments: those times we lean into God's presence, hear His voice, and willingly receive the golden nuggets of truth-revelation He gifts us with." Jo Ann Fore

"Only the power of God's presence can truly revive a nation." Sunday Adelaja

"I live in the faith that there is a Presence and Power greater than I am that nurtures and supports me in ways I could not even imagine. I know that this Presence is All knowing and All Power and is Always right where I am". Ernest Holmes
 
"In our stillness, we acknowledge God's greatness and we are at peace in our life. Stillness saturates us in the Presence of God." E'yen A. Gardner

"Praise is the portal to the presence of God." 

"Silence is the room we create for the searching of God, where we hear His voice and follow." Mark Buchanan
 
"I must first have the sense of God's possession of me before I can have the sense of His presence with me." Watchman Nee

"The reason that some people could not find God is because they search God in dead things. They are almost ignorant about the presence of the living God." 
Amit Ray
 
"The Lord will never forsake you. His presence is always with you everywhere you may go."   Lailah Gifty Akita
