God’s faithfulness, justice and love are extended to us despite our sinfulness. The imagery used to describe these benefits in Psalm 36:1-12 will hopefully help us appreciate how vast His love towards us is.

There is also the promise of the Holy Spirit for His children. In Isaiah 59:21, He also promises that His word will abide with them. The benefits of having His Spirit and word are numerous. They range from power to discernment, revelation, guidance, protection, etc.

The presence of the Lord raises awareness and discernment, so that even when sin crouches at the door or the enemy tries to attack His children, they become aware. He also promises protection as Isaiah 59:19 says.

Another benefit of walking with the Lord is the opportunity to grow as a person. We need to be willing to be corrected and to trust in God’s ability to help us become better. Psalm 141:1-10.

There are benefits of living for God. We are assured of preservation. Psalm 121 says it very well. May we be able to testify of His protection.

Ephesians 5:8-33 gives some practical advice on Christian living. If we are to see change in our lives, then our commitment to a relationship with God is the starting point. Then comes the realisation that we are different and then the determination to live for Him.

The rebellious behaviour we are witnessing around us and amongst shows that there is oppression and also lack of humility. People are becoming ungovernable and don’t want to be subject to the law. On the other hand the people tasked with leadership have created a system that oppresses rather than liberates. May the presence of God we are praying for usher in the power of the Holy Spirit to enable us to humble ourselves under Him, both those who govern and the governed. May one of the manifestations be the desire to live right. Titus 3:1-11.

I watch in amazement as fans of particular teams rejoice when their teams do well, then get so disappointed when they lose. The same happens to followers of politicians. I hope we can trust in the Lord more than the teams or leaders we support, because His plans endure. Psalm 33:6-12.

The average Kenyan is very informed about the political issues in the country and can expertly analyse the English Premier League, etc. And that is ok. This is due to the amount of time spent interacting with those issues. Unfortunately, many do not spend as much time reading and meditating on scripture, fellowshiping or inquiring of the Lord. May we focus more on the latter so that we do not become dependent on signs. Matthew 16:1-4.

If there is something I’m asking for more and more is God’s presence especially as I get older. Jesus asked for the same in John 17:24. May we enjoy this privilege and may we reflect Him more and more for His glory.
