The value of the God’s Presence
The presence of God is an inexhaustible source of life, never the flow
of his presence upon us is terminated.
Development
2 Samuel 6:
1-12
The ark of God represented the presence of God.
How to come before God in our lives? How do we make God's presence not
only touch us or visit, but also stay with us?
This is the problem with many receives God's touch in meetings but
during the week living in defeat, did the presence of God to stay with them.
David loved God, and he had every good intention of bringing the ark,
had the desire but that did not guarantee that the presence of God to stay.
What ensuring the presence of God stay with us? Obedience to walk the
steps God says you have to walk, to live in his will that ensures the presence
of God not only come into your life but also stay with you and that is the
greatest treasure you have in your life and in your home.
v.3 "set the ark of God upon a new cart". Human efforts do not
guarantee that the presence of God comes where you want this, obedience itself.
David has the good intention and brings the ark of the house of Uzza 20
years the ark there. We’re walking, the oxen stumbled and Uzzah wanted to touch
the ark, the ark it was normal because I had 20 years in his home.
v.6-7 But one day God made him understand through the everyone that his
presence is not normal. We cannot make it a routine because it can bring
spiritual death for our lives.
Now David, wonders what happened here? Something was wrong. The
intention was good but how? Was not right, was wrong. For the Ark of the
Covenant was not to be taken by car but on the shoulder consecrated people,
called to carry the ark of God's presence.
You're one of those people, God called you to put on your shoulders his
presence for you to be the bearer of this wonderful presence of the glory of
God in your life.
You can have the best intentions of having the presence of God but if
you do not intend you add the way it is obedience as God wants it all going to
be in a mere intention and nothing else.
Everyone wants the presence of God for giving us but nobody wants the
presence of God for what it means to have it.
Do you give value to the presence of God? Until we understand the value
of your presence you're going to belittle. Few are those who know the value of
your presence.
After what happened v.10-11 David decides to leave the ark in the house
of Obed-Edom. After what they had seen at that time, a man was wounded, broken
by God, who had wanted to take the ark at home? Perhaps for some it was a risk.
But for Obed-Edom in time, the presence of God I keep having the courage he had
to take his life.
To some say "oh no, because I do not think I can respond to God as
He wants us to respond." They do not understand the value of it because
only been used to living than the demonstrations made in their lives.
If you give value to the presence of God, you're going to submit to Him
completely. And his presence will make in your life that you fail you with your
own strength.
v.12
There blessing because of the presence of God.
The presence of God is not only a spiritual experience but also has
significance in our life and in all that surrounds us.
Because of their presence you will be borne fruit, you will be blessed,
you will be restored.
After David brought the ark of God, I go dancing to the city, Michal
look and contempt because she did not understand the value of God's presence.
She then remained sterile.
Also, when people do not understand the value of the God’s presence are
spiritually sterile, become religious and do not live the life of God's
presence.
2 Samuel 8:
1-6
Where David was defeated enemies because I retrieve the God’s presence
for your home.
When you recover the presence of God and live under God's presence, you
will always have victory over enemies.
Conclusion
Give the value you have to give to the presence of God so that what
happened to the house of Obed-Edom also happen with you today. Because this is
a special time when the very presence of God will bear witness to what she does
in your life.
Retrieves the God´s presence, returns to find his presence.
Rate your presence, surrender to it and let it work in your life.
