His Protective Presence
His Protective Presence
God is in the midst of her; she shall not be moved. Psalm 46:5
There is no place on earth where you feel more secure than in the manifest presence of God.
King David was a warrior who faced countless enemies throughout his life. If anyone might have suffered from anxiety disorder, it would be David. Rather than stressing over conflict, however, he ran to the presence of God for refuge. When he said, “God is in the midst of her,” he was not referring to God’s omnipresence because His omnipresence was with every people group. Instead, he was referring to God’s manifest presence, and because of God’s manifest presence, God’s people “shall not be moved.”
When you face problems and all hell seems to break loose, don’t curse your situation; run into the manifest presence of Christ for refuge.
God’s manifest presence can give you unmovable confidence today regardless of what challenges you are facing.
Father God, I run into Your manifest presence to find safety and security. You are my Hiding Place, my Fortress, and my Deliverer.
