God is right where you are right now, remember He is Omnipresent, He is right there with you at all times. He is in you!

Why then, let fear rob you of your peace? Why then, let the opinions of men cause you to doubt His Word? Why then, let worries and anxiety overtake you? Have you forgotten Who is with you? Have you forgotten the Creator of the Universe is not only there with you, but He is also in you? Have you forgotten that He is both your God and your Father?  

As a loving responsible Father, He will not give you a stone when you ask Him for bread; neither will He give you a snake if you ask for fish (Matthew 7:9-11). Every gift He has for you His beloved child is both good and perfect, and not He is more eager to lavish His love and provisions on you than you are to receive them. Your Father has your best interest at heart.

¹⁷ Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows. – James 1:17 NIV

Your Father never changes and doesn't lie, He means EXACTLY what He says. If you have His Word on anything, it’s as good as done! What He has promised to you, He will bring to pass, trust Him. Don’t let the enemy use your circumstances to cause you to start accusing Him of being the author of stuff that is contrary to His Word and Nature in your life. Rest assured, in the end ALL things will work together for your good, for you are His beloved and you are called according to His purpose.    

The enemy will always try to get you to focus on your seemingly worsening circumstances. His aim is to cause you to think God has deserted you because of some past failure or sin on your part. Don’t let him incapacitate you with feelings of guilt and shame, your past has been taken care of by the incorruptible Blood of the perfect Lamb of God, never to be revisited upon you, ever!

In Christ you have been made the righteousness of God and your Father has promised to remember your sins no more. He said so Himself, to doubt Him is to limit Him for when you doubt you align yourself with the enemy – not a very smart move.

God is right there WITH you and IN you by His Spirit, whether you feel it or not. He so desires to share His life with you, so don’t just relegate your relationship with your Father to a weekly Sunday service or any other formal setting, as good and as important as those are. He desires an intimate relationship with you, make it a priority to include your Father in all your activities today, talk to Him, share stuff with Him and listen to Him as He shares His heart with you. We are part of God's family, let's act like it!. 

You are His dwelling place – His habitation now, so hearing His voice should be as natural as breathing to you. In Old Covenant days, God did not dwell in people, the Spirit of God just came upon Prophets, Kings, Priests and a select few for a specific time and task. No wonder when David sinned he repented pleading with God saying:

¹¹ Do not cast me from your presence
     or take your Holy Spirit from me. – Psalm 51:11 NIV

Today God by His Holy Spirit dwells in us, He has come to be with us forever, He no longer comes and goes (John 14:16-17) He’s in us to stay and we are one with Him (1 Corinthians 16:7)

Walk in this reality and let your Father’s presence in you impact others around you.
