God is Omnipresent

Day 16 of 30 days of Praying the Name and Attributes of God

I can never escape from your Spirit! I can never get away from your presence! If I go up to heaven, you are there; if I go down to the grave, you are there. If I ride the wings of the morning, if I dwell by the farthest oceans, even there your hand will guide me, and your strength will support me. I could ask the darkness to hide me and the light around me to become night-- but even in darkness I cannot hide from you. To you the night shines as bright as day. Darkness and light are the same to you. Psalms 139:7-12 NLT

Have you ever wanted to get away from everyone—even God? Knowing that God is Omnipresent—always with us means we can’t get away from Him. For someone deep in sin who is being convicted of their sin—that could be a heavy burden. But for the rest of us…what a comfort and encouragement. Wherever we go, God is there.  In fact He goes ahead of us—preparing the way. The LORD is the one who goes ahead of you; He will be with you. He will not fail you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed. Deuteronomy 31:8.  What a great and awesome God we have! Always with us—and always for us. What more could we want?
 
RSVP: God is offering us an invitation and promise today to always be with us—in the form of the Holy Spirit. Do you want Him to be there and guide you? How will you respond to Him today? 

Prayer~ Thank You Jesus that You promised… "I will ask the Father, and He will give you another Helper, that He may be with you forever.”  John 14:16. That Helper is the Holy Spirit who is indeed a Comforter, a Protector, who gives us wisdom and strength. Thank you also for the healing touch You have provided to our loved ones in need. Please continue to heal, strengthen, guide and protect those who are near and dear to us.
