BEGIN IN GOD'S PRESENCE

"On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you." - John 14:20

Every movement in the body of Christ has a beginning and that beginning starts in the heart of a man or a woman before God. God plants a seed, that He then waters and makes it to grow into a movement. God plants seeds in our hearts as we come before Him and spend time with Him. He waters those seeds as we worship Him and read His Word daily. When we seek first His kingdom, He causes all these things to be added unto us. What are all these things? All these things means all the wonderful aspects of His kingdom. What is the fruit that is produced from the seeds He plants? The fruit that grows out of our relationship with Him are: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, long-suffering, gentleness, faith, modesty, self-control, and chastity. And with all of these fruits we are equipped to ignite church planting movements in our own cities and around the world.

Go into all the world and preach the gospel to every creature. Go and make disciples of all men. All of these commands begin with Jesus and a relationship with Him. They begin in God’s presence. They are rooted there in that relationship. The relationship with God is what moves us to go. It equips us to serve. It enables us to love others deeper and more perfectly.

What is God’s presence? It is simply God being present. He is real. He is a being. He is everywhere. He is surrounding you right now. You have your breath, life, and being in Him. He is holding you in the palm of His hand. His grace is poured out on your as you focus on Him. As you are intentional to seek Him, spend time with Him, and make Him a priority in your life, He shows up. He speaks to you in the secret place of your heart. Begin in His Presence.
