The Word Given: The Presence
Even more, we need stuff from God for our spiritual walk. Imagine being enveloped by a spiritual mist. His presence!
Genesis 2:4-6
"This is the history of the heavens and the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens, before any plant of the field was in the earth and before any herb of the field had grown. For the LORD God had not caused it to rain on the earth, and there was no man to till the ground; but a mist went up from the earth and watered the whole face of the ground."
Imagine never needing to water anything and yet it grows and flourishes! And it never rains! The sun shines, the fruit and veggies grow, and everything is beautiful! That was how the garden was. Everything was perfect and planned out.
Do you remember the Manna? Given supernaturally? See how these two things showed up without man being involved? God spends time from the Garden until now doing miracles that we as people become so accustomed to that we take them for granted.
We need "stuff" in life. Even more, we need stuff from God for our spiritual walk. Imagine being enveloped by a spiritual mist. His presence!
I grew up in church. Even Pentecostal! But I will never forget as an adult when I first felt the presence of God. It was all around me, and I could feel Him in the spiritual. But now I could feel Him in the physical realm as well! God isn’t just some deity off in some distant galaxy. He is very real and right here with us. But quite often we are so wrapped up in the moment to moment of life that we fail to take the time to truly seek Him out. Ask Him, “Lord, surround me with your Presence. Not just the knowledge that You are here but allow me to physically discover you!
