.Be sure of this…that l am with you always, even to the end of the world
(Matthew 28:20 TLB).
When
you’re conscious of God’s divine presence with you, your life will be an
unending stream of the miraculous. A great minister used to say, “Practise the
presence of Jesus,” and I urge you to do the same. Practising the presence of
God means living your life with the consciousness that God lives in you, and
He’s also with you. Thus statements as, “I’m so lonely and alone in this world;
there’s nobody to help me” should be completely banished from your life. Rather,
you say, “The Lord is with me always.”
When
Jesus said, “…lo, I am with you always, even unto the end of the world”
(Matthew 28:20), He wasn’t kidding. It makes no difference whether or not you
“feel” He’s close; He ¡s right there with you and ¡n you! Don’t allow your mind
to think thoughts of loneliness and weakness; look in the mirror and tell
yourself, “God is with me, and He lives in me!”
You
must begin to think, talk, and function as though God is with you, because He
is! Talk to Him often. Relate with Him like a real Person who can hear and
appreciate your concerns. When you’re conscious of His presence this way, you
wouldn’t recognize the absence of others or the challenges and adversaries you
face. It’s something you must practise consciously, especially when you’re
alone.
If
you can be bold in the presence of God when you’re alone, you’ll win when you
come out of your closet. That will be the end of all your struggles. Fear,
worry, anxiety, doubt and stress will be gone from your life for good. He’ll
lead, guide, protect and strengthen you. As He said to Joshua, He says to you
today, “Yes, be bold and strong! Banish fear and doubt! For remember, the Lord
your God is with you wherever you go” (Joshua 1:9 TLB). Let this be your
consciousness always.
