In His Presence:Part 1 (Ps 112)

This might look like a very awkward but fun series and it is probably because I am doing it! I wasn’t really planning on doing a study but while I was reading Psalms 112 I felt extremely blessed and encouraged. I will pick up verses that I found meaning, truth, personal and theological truth in. Hopefully it wont be too long and will be simple enough to understand.
My focus is His presence.

Psalms 112:1 (TNIV version)
Blessed are those who fear the LORD,
who find great delight in his commands.

Blessed are those who not “scared” of God but live in awe of His presence and love Him with all their heart.
Great delight in His commands…people that know and trust God to be there in times of trouble. Those that will not doubt but in crisis hold firm on His covenant of protection. You see on Mount Sinai God made a covenant with His people that He will protect them and they should obey and keep his covenant. In short that is what He said you can look at Exodus 19:3-6 to know what exactly The Wise Man Himself said.

Lets start our day and end our night knowing that God is completely Holy, completely pure, completely God and nothing that comes from His mouth can be false. Let’s trust Him a hundred percent in everything.

In His presence; you will find great joy and comfort. In His presence; you will find truth and revelation that will completely blow you away. In His presence; you will receive love that you can then impart into the world. In His presence; you will find peace that is so beyond your own understanding. In His presence, you will find rest that you don’t find in seven hours of sleep every night. In His presence, you will have intimacy that you cannot find with anyone else. In His presence you will be complete.

He will not judge, He will not pin point, He will not ridicule, He will not laugh at you, He will not hurt, He will not show you a list of your mistakes, He will not look away or forget or ignore, He will not scream at you, He will not deny you.
All He wants, ever wanted was to love you and to show you how much He loves you and the good plans He has for you. So trust Him. He will not forsake you. I can guarantee this cause He is inside me and beside me pointing me in the direction to go. So just simply trust Him!

Live in fear and awe of Him. Love His commands for they are good and will help you to live a pure and fun life in a way you never imagined before possible.
