Jesus did the will of the Father while He was physically on earth according to John 5:17, 19-20. In that portion of scripture, who is at work? How much can the son do by Himself? What does the Son do? Why does the Father show the Son what He is doing?

So how did Israel survive with so many enemies around them? They were a small nation and often faced greater nations, but they frequently overcame them. It was the Lord’s doing. He was looking out for His children and keeping His promise to them. May it be so for us too, that He would constantly uphold us for His glory. 2 Chronicles 20.

The Lord may choose to employ unconventional ways to deliver you, so have an open mind. He is the Almighty God. Just follow His instructions 2 Chronicles 20:21-24.

The beauty of being in God’s will is that even when you feel totally helpless, He has your back. The critical thing is being where He wants you to be. He is a merciful God 2 Chronicles 20:10-17

The Israelites were confident that if they stood in God’s presence and called on Him, He would hear them and save them – 2 Chronicles 20:9. We should do the same during difficult times. Are we sure we are in His presence?

In view of how July has been, I sought the Lord for encouragement and He led me to 2 Chronicles 20. Jehoshaphat and God’s children were threatened by their neighbours. This happened after God had driven out the inhabitants of the land He had promised to Israel and they had settled in it and even built a sanctuary for His name – vs 7-8. Are you facing an attack after a season of victory and tranquillity?

Getting accustomed to God’s presence will hopefully help us desire to honour Him more and more and not to take Him for granted. That would then make us agree with the words spoken by the children of Israel in Jeremiah 42:6.

So what should our attitude be knowing what we know about the presence of God being available to us? Do we trust Him enough to be positive even in the most difficult times? Should the impact of His glory be determined by how we feel about ourselves? Kindly reflect on Psalm 55:22 regarding this. If we truly believe His presence is with us, then our attitude should reflect it, no matter what we are going through.

As we focus on the desire to be in God’s presence and to experience more of His glory, then the advice Paul gives in Hebrews 13:5-6 will hopefully make more sense to us. The blessed assurance that money is not the important thing, but that God is and consequently His purpose for us. And His glory will help us maintain this perspective.

Even Jesus expressed the need to be in His Father’s presence in Luke 2:41-49, especially vs 49. How about us? How much more should we desire His glory? It doesn’t have to only happen in the building we call church or temple. We are so fortunate to have the Allmighty God, who is not limited by space or time.
