We may believe that our current situation is our reality. And while there is some truth to it, God's presence is a defining fact. There is never a time when God is not there with you, but there are times when God is not present in a visible way.

To put it another way, the presence of God is sometimes invisible to the human eye or spirit. Christians are called to live by faith rather than sight, which is why Paul says, “Live by faith, not by sight” (2 Corinthians 5:7). Take a look at the following facts:
- God's omnipresence can exist without us being aware of it, but his tangible presence cannot.
- Our awareness of the Lord is awakened to biblical truth and reality as a result of His present presence.
How does God show his presence?
There are several tales in the Bible of people encountering God through His presence in scripture, dreams, angelic encounters, and experiencing His might. There are miracles, signs, and wonders stories. Countless encounter stories. These stories will inspire you and prompt you to reconsider some of the events in your own life. “I believe it was God who did that!” you'll say more frequently.
What does the Bible say about the manifestation of God?
Trust in the Lord with all your heart, and lean not on your own understanding; acknowledge Him in all your ways, and He will lead you in the right path. 3:5 (Proverbs)
When we manifest, we are putting more trust in our own thinking rather than seeking God's Will for our predicament.
However, Proverbs 3:5 tells us that we should put our faith in God rather than our own understanding.
He loves us and wants the best for us, so we should entrust our dreams and goals to Him and ask for His assistance in realizing them.
How do you keep the presence of God?
Maintain unity via fellowship and God-centered worship. Recognize that the Lord's counsel is eternal. This means that no government or people are above the Lord, and any laws that contradict God's rules will be overturned by the Lord! Only the law of God shall be upheld.
What does manifestation mean spiritually?
You'll find anything from creators teaching you how to visit someone in their dreams to others conducting tarot readings about manifestation all with millions of views if you go through your social media feeds. Others offer suggestions for when you want to manifest as well as what not to do. However, depending on how you choose to approach it and employ it in your daily life, manifestation is both more complicated and easier than you might believe.
What exactly is manifestation?
Manifestation is not a new idea; in fact, it has been practiced for millennia. Laura Day, a New York Times bestselling author and practicing intuitive, has been using and teaching manifestation techniques for over 40 years. “Sciences, from physics to biology, have produced solid evidence that we exist in a unified field of energy,” Day explains, when asked how she would explain the notion of manifestation to someone who has never heard of it before. “Who you are is intertwined with and contributes to the formation of everything around you. Spiritual manifestation is a discipline based on the understanding that every ‘I' is also a ‘we,' and that by connecting with this unified field in a conscious and focused manner, we can transform the world.”
Dr. Deganit Nuur, a spiritual teacher, celebrity clairvoyant intuitive, acupuncturist, author, and speaker, adds, “When you're flowing, not forcing, you're manifesting spiritually.” It's not the same as setting goals since you're co-creating with the cosmos. Whatever you're manifesting is an extension of your light, not something apart from you. You climb to that level of consciousness and get the object once you feel worthy of it. As a result, rather of feeling impotent in the face of the object, you keep your power (promotion, new house, car, romance, etc.). The focus is on your growth and who you become in the process of actualizing all you're manifesting, not on the paycheck, the shoes, or the house.”
What is the power of the presence of God?
WHEN MY DAUGHTER WAS VERY SMALL, she became ill in the middle of the night. I felt fatigued, overloaded, and apprehensive as I entered her nursery to care for her. I took her up and sat in the rocking chair with her, but I found myself wishing she'd fall back asleep immediately. Despite the fact that I began to pray, I felt far off from God's power and presence. But, having just returned from a Wednesday evening meeting at a local Church of Christ, Scientist, where people had expressed views about God that had benefited them, I wondered, ‘Was there anything mentioned at the meeting that would help me now?' Then I remembered a Bible verse that someone had mentioned. “Be still, and know that I am God,” says Psalms. Of course, I reasoned, God is in charge. He's keeping an eye on me and loves me as much as I love my daughter. He's right here, guiding and protecting both of us.
I followed the instructions in this Bible text. I was struck by how still, quiet, and serene everything was at the time, and I began to pray for a deeper understanding of God's peace. I reasoned that if God, divine Love, was looking after all of His thoughts, He must be looking after us as well. “Love giveth to the least spiritual notion might, immortality, and goodness, which shine through all as the bloom shines through the bud,” Mary Baker Eddy, the Discoverer and Founder of Christian Science, writes in Science and Health with Key to the Scriptures. Since divine Love bestows “power, immortality, and goodness” on its creation, I recognized that the spiritual man created by God could never be without health, peace, comfort, joy, or serenity.
We were soon aware of God's presence. His might was revealed. My daughter slept soundly all night, and the discomfort she had been experiencing dissipated quickly. I also had a fresh feeling of God's nearness and strength.
When we are attentive to God's love for His children, we may sense His presence and see His power. Divine, pure, unconditional, and serene love. God's power and strength are continuously at work to protect and care for His children.
Why is God's presence important?
Now, while the multitude pressed in around Him, listening to God's word, He was standing by the lake of Gennesaret, and He noticed two boats resting at the lake's bank, but the fishermen had gotten out of them and were cleaning their nets. And He went into one of the boats, Simon's, and told him to take a few steps away from the shore. And from the boat, He sat down and began instructing the people. “Put out into the deep water and let down your nets for a catch,” He said to Simon when He finished speaking. “Master, we worked hard all night and caught nothing,” Simon replied, “but I will do as You command and put down the nets.” They had encircled a large number of fish, and their nets were beginning to break, so they alerted their partners in the other boat to come over and assist them. They arrived and filled both boats to the point that they began to sink. When Simon Peter saw this, he knelt at Jesus' feet and cried out, “Depart from me, Lord, for I am a sinful man!” Because the catch of fish that he and his comrades had taken had taken them by surprise, as did James and John, sons of Zebedee, who were Simon's partners. “Do not be afraid,” Jesus answered to Simon, “from now on you will be catching men.” They left everything and followed Him after bringing their boats to land.
After these events, Jesus appeared to the disciples again at the Sea of Tiberias, and He did so in this manner. Simon Peter, Thomas, Nathanael of Cana in Galilee, and the sons of Zebedee, as well as two other disciples, were all present. “I'm going fishing,” Simon Peter told them. “We will also come with you,” they told him. They went out and got into the boat, but they caught nothing that night. But as the sun began to rise, Jesus stood on the beach, and the disciples had no idea who he was. “Children, you don't have any fish, do you?” Jesus asked them. “No,” they responded. “Cast the net on the right-hand side of the boat, and you will discover a catch,” He told them. So they cast, but due to the large quantity of fish, they were unable to haul it in. As a result, Jesus' beloved disciple told Peter, “It is the Lord.” When Simon Peter realized it was the Lord, he put on his outer garment (since he had been naked for work) and dove into the sea. The other disciples, on the other hand, arrived in the little boat, which was not far from the shore, approximately a hundred yards distant, towing the net full of fish. When they arrived on the ground, they discovered a charcoal fire with fish and bread already lit on it. “Bring some of the fish you have now caught,” Jesus told them. Simon Peter stepped up and dragged the net to land, which was full with enormous fish, a hundred and fifty-three, and the net was not ripped despite the large number. “Come in and eat breakfast,” Jesus invited them. Knowing that it was the Lord, none of the disciples dared to ask, “Who are You?”
- The first narrative took place before the Disciples became Disciples, while the second story took place after they had become Disciples for a while.
- The first story takes place before Jesus' death, while the second takes place after Jesus' death and resurrection.
- The first narrative featured an indeterminate large number of fish, whereas the second featured a specific large number of fish (153).
- The nets broke in the first storey, filling two boats to the point of sinking; in the second story, the nets were filled and held, and one small boat made it to land without incident.
- In one narrative, Peter falls at Jesus' feet and begs Him to leave, whereas in the other, Peter leaps from the boat and swims to Jesus in an attempt to get as close to Him as possible.
- We see a radical conversion in the first story and a radical response in the second.
- People were amazed in the first story, and in the second story, the Disciples come to realize something.
- In the first story, there was a shift in fate (from now on, you will be men's fishermen), and in the second, there was a shift in perception (revelation).
- In the first narrative, we are told to be ‘fishers of men,' whereas in the second story, we are told to ‘feed my sheep.'
- They followed Jesus in the first story and sat and ate with Him in the second.
– In every situation, the arrival of Jesus and His presence is the turning moment.
– Here we have two scenarios that are quite similar, but with one huge difference: when Jesus appears, everything changes.
– The word conversion, by definition, refers to a process of transformation in which we move from one state to another.
– It's similar to when ice melts and transforms into water, which is completely different.
2. BE CONSCIOUS OF YOUR OWN ACTIONS.
– Revelation 21:3 “I'm going fishing,” Peter told them. “We will also come with you,” they told him.
– These men were disillusioned and frustrated, and in that moment of weakness, they made the decision to go it alone.
– They did what they felt like doing, which turned out to be what'seemed good to them.'
– We will not be successful in the long run if we do our own thing instead of what the Lord has commanded us to do.
– That is why it is critical for us, as His children, to hear and heed His voice, since it is the key to the supernatural success that only God can provide.
– They had not only been given no orders to go fishing, but they had also gone fishing without Jesus.
– It's like getting chosen to compete in a sporting event. We are given a track to run on during the race. We will be disqualified if we arrive at the race and decide that we do not like the course and bring our own paint and paintbrush to create our own track.
– We must run in accordance with His instructions and in the midst of His ever-present presence.
– We used to sing a tune that went something like this: “I have no strength of my own…”
– Nothing is worthwhile without Him in our lives, but everything may have meaning, purpose, and effectiveness with Him.
3. THE MIRACLE HAPPENED IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD.
– The presence of Jesus in any given scenario almost invariably results in a miracle or a series of miracles.
– His presence in the lives of people in the Bible frequently resulted in a miracle.
– There is a correlation between the location of Jesus' presence and the incidence of miracles.
– If the presence of Jesus is present in your congregation, miracles may occur.
– If the presence of Jesus is present in your life group, miracles can happen.
– If the presence of Jesus is present in your business, miracles can happen.
– If the presence of Jesus is present in your family, miracles may occur.
– If Jesus is present in your marriage, it is possible for miracles to occur.
4. SUCCESS FOLLOWS HIM WHEREVER HE GOES.
– In both of these stories, the most important phrases for me come from the second story.
– This is the point at which the Disciples realize who is speaking to them.
– We can appreciate success once we see God's hand in our life and recognize that it is He who has given us the success.
– I had a meeting with a lawyer a long time ago. This attorney had assisted a number of churches and ministries in resolving their legal issues. Throughout the journey, he encountered a variety of people and organizations, each with its own set of challenges and triumphs. As we started talking, he told me that based on his experience, there are two types of organizations. ‘There are people who put $100 in and get $5 out, and those who put $5 in and receive $100 out,' he explained. I was perplexed by the illustration and asked him to explain it. He stated that some of the organizations he aided appeared to be struggling. They put in a lot of effort to make it a success, but despite their best efforts, it never seemed to be a true success. Then He went on to say that while some people didn't put in much effort, every attempt seemed to bear fruit and grow. He was baffled at first as to why this was happening. But, he added, over time, he realized that those who seemed to thrive and prosper were those on whom God's hand rested. He had wondered if those that were a constant struggle were things that God had genuinely asked for or not. ‘You see, you put 5 cents in and you got $100 out!' he exclaimed as I told how our small endeavor had blossomed and nearly ran away with us.
– I believe this illustration can be used in any situation. It applies whether you're in the ministry, at work, or running your own company.
– The Disciples in this area had attempted to do it on their own. They put $100 in and got nothing in return except tiredness and frustration, but when Jesus arrived on the scene and His presence was with them, success came easily and undeservedly.
– What does success mean to a fisherman at the end of the day? Of course, a fish capture!
5. HIS PRESENCE HAS THE ABILITY TO GO BEYOND THE HUMANLY POSSIBLE.
– As a result, when we require assistance in any area, we normally seek the assistance of a specialist.
– If we're unwell, we'll consult a doctor; if we're in difficulty, we'll consult a lawyer; and if we need guidance, we'll consult a skilled counselor.
– We don't always find what we're looking for with a Doctor, a Lawyer, or a Counselor.
– Then, for the breakthrough we need, we must turn to the Great Physician, the Advocate, and the Wonderful Counselor.
– I've witnessed God's presence at work in people's lives, producing results that years of counseling had failed to achieve.
– I've witnessed God's presence influence people's lives, and legal issues that they were facing were instantly handled.
– I've witnessed God's presence in people's life, and they choose to forgive, and their health conditions are resolved.
6. GOD HAS THE ABILITY TO FILL YOUR EMPTY NETS.
– When we operate under God's teaching and in His presence, the same nets that came up empty under our own initiative can be filled.
– When seen in the context of the big picture of Jesus and the effect His presence made in this scenario, this may appear to be a minor detail.
– But may us never lose sight of the amazing fact that these empty nets were filled because of Jesus.
– My brother and his son just went fishing. They fished for four hours and didn't get a single nibble or bite. He contacted me after he got home to tell me what a waste of time it had been. I reminded him that at the very least, he gets to spend time with his son, doing something he enjoys.
– Something you had high hopes for, something you put a lot of effort and energy into, but it never yielded the results you expected or saw others achieve with far less effort?
– Keep in mind that it is the Lord who fills the empty nets if we call on Him and obey His commands.
7. WITHOUT HIS PRESENCE IN OUR LIVES, WE CAN DO NOTHING OF LONG-TERM VALUE.
– We all want to leave a legacy that we can be proud of for our children and family.
– It is for this reason that seeking God's presence in our life is so critical.
– 15:5 in John's gospel ‘I am the vine, and you are the branches,' she says. Those who stay with Me, and I with them, will bear a lot of fruit. You can't achieve anything without Me.'
– 15:16 in John's Gospel ‘You did not pick me, but I chose you and assigned you to bear fruit – lasting fruit…'
– Quote: ‘We can do without many things, but none of us can do without Christ!' declared my later father, Pastor Ed Roebert.
– This quote was recently shared on social media, and it elicited a vitriolic and caustic response.
– 1:3 (Hebrews) ‘The Son is the exact expression of God's being and the light of His glory, upholding all things by His powerful word.' He sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven after providing purification for sins.'
– The world may believe that it can support itself or that it is dependent on nothing and no one, but it is deceiving itself.
2 Corinthians 2:15-16 (NASB) ‘Our lives are a fragrance that rises up to God in the likeness of Christ.' However, individuals who are being saved and those who are dying have different reactions to this smell. We have an awful fragrance of death and doom to people who are dying. But we are a life-giving scent to those who are being redeemed.'
– John 21:12 (NIV) “Come on in and get some breakfast!” Jesus remarked. “Who are you?” none of the disciples dared to ask. They were certain it was the Lord.
– Prayer: Lord, I am in desperate need of Your presence in my life. Every day, I need to be aware of and experience Your presence. May I never try to tackle things on my own, neglecting and believing that I can do it without You. May Your love and mercy follow me throughout my life, and may I live forever in the Lord's house. Amen.
How do u know if the Holy Spirit is in you?
The presence of the fruit of the Spirit is one indication that you have received the Holy Spirit. You know someone has allowed God to work in their hearts when you watch them grow in the fruit of the Spirit. The road to salvation is long, and the fruit takes time to fully manifest in our lives.
- The Spirit of Truth dwells in the believer to guide, show the believer what she needs to know, praise God, and show her what she needs to know. “I am the way, the truth, and the life,” Jesus declares.
the way of life The Holy Spirit is the spirit of truth, as Jesus described Him.
- The Holy Ghost, whom the Father will send as a comforter, will teach you all things and bring them to your mind (John 14:26).
- Remove sin, righteousness, and judgment from the world.
- These are the exact actions that Jesus took while on earth.
- As Jesus, the Third Person of the Trinity, departs, the Holy Spirit will continue the task.
One of the reasons the ruling class and the people were unable to accept His message was that it instilled in them a sense of guilt for their sins, which still exists today. They were pushed to change by Jesus. The folks appeared to be godly, yet they lacked the substance or capacity to fight sin. They were labeled hypocrites by Jesus, who told His disciples that unless their righteousness surpassed that of the Pharisees, they would not be allowed to enter the kingdom of God. Conviction of sin, righteousness, and judgment is carried out by the Holy Spirit. On the day of Pentecost, after Jesus had finally left, the Holy Spirit descended. The Holy Spirit resides in every Christian who has been born again or has accepted Jesus Christ as Savior.
According to First John 5:7, “The father, the Word, and the Holy Spirit are the three witnesses in heaven, and these three are one.
“Jesus is the Word made human.” (See John 1:14)
The workings of the TrinityGod the Father, Son, and Holy Spiritcan only be revealed by the Holy Spirit. An ordinary man will never be able to comprehend the Trinity without the Holy Spirit. This tremendous mystery, which has generated such a stir throughout Church and global history, can only be revealed by the Holy Spirit, and anyone who lacks the Holy Spirit does not belong to Jesus Christ. We accept God's Word on faith as believers. The Holy Spirit gives believers the ability to comprehend God's Word. Believers don't always understand everything, but the Holy Spirit gives them peace to accept it when they don't. Believers recognize that some things are unclear right now; we don't know everything. According to 2 Corinthians 13:12,
“For now, we view through a hazy window, but then we will see face to face: now I know in part, but then I will know as well as I am known.”
Things believers don't fully comprehend will be revealed to them in heaven one day. The new believer, on the other hand, must be taught that God exists in three persons: the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit, all of whom are one person in essence and power. Many people continue to hold strong opinions against this important Christian value. You will never be a disciple of Jesus Christ unless you grasp and practice the trinity. That means he or she lacks the Holy Spirit, who will teach about the Trinity's operation: God the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. There would be no understudying of the trinity if the Holy Spirit did not exist.
