1 | God is everywhere? | Bible general Archive 1 | inmyheart | 73705 | ||
God has said, "I will never leave you, or forsake you." He is always and everywhere present. Here is how he said it through the prophet Isaiah: Isaiah 43:2ff "Fear not for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you… For I am the Lord, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior…" Jeremiah 23:23,24 "Am I only a God nearby", declares the Lord, "and not a God far away? Can anyone hide in secret places so that I cannot see him?" Declares the Lord. "Do not I fill heaven and earth? declares the Lord." John 14:16-23 "I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor to be with you forever – the Spirit of truth. The world cannot accept him, because it neither sees him nor knows him. But you know him, for he lives with you and will be in you. I will not leave you as orphans; I will come to you… On that day you will realize that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you… If anyone loves me, he will obey my teaching. My Father will love him, and we will come to him and make our home with him." 300 years ago Stephen Charnock wrote concerning the Acts 17 passage: "In him we live and move and have our being" God is "not absent from anything, but so present with (everyone), that they live and move in him, and move more in God, than in the air or earth wherein they are; (God is) nearer to us than our flesh to our bones, than the air to our breath; he cannot be far from them that live, and have every motion in him. The apostle did not say, "by him" but "in him" to show the inwardness of his presence." Again, I ask you, where IS God? Listen to God’s own answer as given through the Psalmist David in Psalm 139 READ Verses 8-9 directly address the question, "Where is God?" In these verses David imagines the furthest distances away. In verse 8 he speaks of the highest place above and the deepest place below. In verse 9 he speaks of the furthest east ("the wings of the dawn") and the furthest west ("the far side of the sea" – the Mediterranean was west of where he was). Any direction David might go, and far as it was conceivable to go – who was there? God! God bless |
