Presence

Ever wonder if God truly cares for you, is on your side, has your best interest in mind, and has your back? Check out today’s passage, where God promised to take care of Israel. They did not have to fear. He was coming to their rescue. He would not allow them to be desolate and helpless like a poor widow. Isaiah wrote,

Today’s devotional is in memory of Tunch Ilkin. Tunch has been with the Lord for almost two years, and—like many who are reading or listening to this devo—I still miss him dearly. Tunch loved Jesus. He loved his family. And he loved to minister to men. Tunch was one of a kind, and he left a lasting impact.

When a person trusts in Christ alone as the only way to have a relationship with the living God, the Holy Spirit takes up residence within. God, through his Spirit, lives in us.

He is everywhere at the same time in his whole being. We cannot escape his power, presence, or protection.

It’s time to escape the storm and “abide in the shadow of the Almighty.”

Waiting on God is always worth the wait.

God alone satisfies us with his presence and fills our hearts with joy.

God is the God of the hills and valleys.

Worn out by obedience? Listen, shhhh, for God’s gentle whisper.
