The way to salvation

 ^"If disaster comes upon us—sword, judgment, pestilence, or famine—we will stand before this temple and in Your presence (for Your name is in this temple), and cry out to You in our affliction, and You will hear and save." 2 Chronicles 20.9

The Temple of the Lord is the Church where the name in evidence is that of the Lord Jesus Christ. It is the place where we will all cry out in one faith, one spirit and one heart, and He will hear us and deliver us. It happened to Jehoshaphat and his entire kingdom, including their wives and children.
And the answer came immediately, saying: the battle is not yours but of the Lord your God.

Glorious promise

"No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life; as I was with Moses, so I will be with you. I will not leave you nor forsake you." Joshua 1.5

This same promise was also made to Abraham, Isaac, Israel and Moses. Now it was Joshua's time. In every age, the chosen of the Lord are assured of His constant presence. There is no jewel or treasure in the entire universe that can be more precious than this. His presence has been with all those who are with Him. But those who despise Him are lightly esteemed.

LACK NO OIL

"Let your garments always be white, and let your head lack no Oil."Ecclesiates 9:8

The Holy Spirit is the Oil the Lord Jesus sent to His followers. What else can we say about such care? What words can we use to express the greatness of His presence? How can we explain to the world that He is His Son Jesus' Substitute?
Only those who have an experience with Him can truly value His importance!

WITH YOU ALWAYS

"And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age." Matthew 28:20

Even when we do not see a cloud guiding us by day or a pillar of fire by night, even when we can't feel His presence and everything seems to be lost.... The Lord Almighty remains faithful to the promises He made our fathers Abraham, Isaac and Israel. And if that weren't enough, He personally said: I am with you always... If that weren't so, one of our many enemies would already have destroyed us. 
His love is truly wonderful!

Whole heart

"...But from there you will seek the LORD your God, and you will find Him if you seek Him with all your heart and with all your soul." Deuteronomy 4:29

Sincerity and faith are essential tools in order to come to God's presence. If these are absent, time and distance unite in order to make the access to His Throne more difficult.

Plenitude with God

"... Behold, I will send you grain and new wine and oil, and you will be satisfied by them..." Joel 2:19

The children of God have the right to a plenitude of life beyond the eternal one. The Lord provides grain (daily bread), wine (joy of His presence), and the oil (the anointing of His Spirit).

Filled with the Spirit

"And when they had prayed, the place where they were assembled together was shaken; and they were all filled with the Holy Spirit, and they spoke the word of God with boldness." Acts 4:31

The manifestation of the power of God has come in many ways, but most importantly, through the presence of the Holy Spirit in us.

Feast

"Therefore let us keep the feast, not with old leaven, nor with the leaven of malice and wickedness, but with the unleavened bread of sincerity and truth."

1 Corinthians 5:8

The Lord Supper is a celebration of the live presence of the Lord & Savior Jesus Christ in us. For this reason, it must be taken with a free conscience of all emotions and guilt.

Trembled and Shook

"O God, when you went out before your people, when you marched through the wilderness, the earth trembled; the heavens also dropped rain at the presence of God; Sinai itself shook at the presence of God, the God of Israel." Psalm 68:7-8

God saw, heard and came down to manifest Himself to those who cried out to Him. His presence shook Mount Sinai. The same thing happens today: the powers of hell see His presence in the lives of those who believe and cannot bear it and so they rattle around like a caged lion. However, God is faithful in fulfilling His promises.
