FOCUS:CONNECTING WITH THE GLORY OF HIS PRESENCE (OPEN HEAVENS)

Text:    Exodus 33: 14-19

Insight for effective Prayer

“When the Lord’s presence is in our midst, no one can harm us. But without Him, we helpless, reduced to nothing. Let all the nations of this world trust in their mighty armies, their iron chariots, their skilled soldiers, their new weapons; we will trust in the manifest presence of our God!”

Here was how God answered Moses’ bold statement: “…My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest” (verse 14). What an incredible promise! The Hebrew word for “rest” here is “a comfortable, quiet rest.” God was saying, “No matter what enemies or trials you face, you’ll always be able to find a quiet rest in me!”

Think about this: If a Church has the manifest presence of God in its midst, there won’t be any hustle or bustle, sweating or striving. The worship meetings won’t be hurried along, with three songs, an offering and a short sermon. Instead, there will be a calming peace, a quiet rest – and everyone who walks through the doors will sense it!

The same is true for every individual Christian. If you have Jesus’ presence in your life, you will experience God’s divine order. You’ll have a peace and a calm, with no fretting or anxiety, no running to and fro to seek guidance, no sense that the bottom is falling out. You’ll live at rest, knowing God has everything under control!

It’s a wonderful thing to be shut in with God, developing a consistent prayer life. God says that as you become a seeking, praying servant, His presence will break forth in your life – closing and opening doors and working His divine order all around you. Yet, something even greater than this will happen: God’s presence will lead you into a revelation of His glory!

The presence of God is continuously drawn when we live holy lives. The key to living a holy life is by constantly dipping ourselves in the Blood of Jesus Christ, as we keep God’s word close to our heart.
