THE PRESENCE OF JESUS
Psalms 16:11 NKJV
“You will show me the path of life; In Your presence is
fullness of joy; At your right hand are pleasure forever
more.”
Identity in Christ is everything and as I have
explained in previous chapters Satan is going to try
everything He can to take your Identity from you. I
can’t emphasis enough the importance of knowing
who you are in Christ. I am regularly faced with this
from congregants from all over the world, as we travel
and we go from church to church, many Christians ask
me to pray for them because they don’t know who they
are anymore, they have lost their joy, they have lost
their peace, and they have lost their identity.
The quickest way to lose your identity is by
neglecting the presence. The moment you start losing
heart, the moment you start losing focus and you feel
lost, you need to think to yourself when last did I get
into His presence? When last did I just sit with Him
and let Him minister to me.
My first recommendation to Christians that have
backslid and that have lost their identity is to get back
into the presence. Because no man can restore you,
no one can make you whole like Jesus Himself.When
His precious Spirit reveals Himself to you He will lead
and guide you into all truth.                                                                                                                                                                                                                     Author Stephen Hockey Shadows & MIRRORS                                                                                                                                                                                   chapter 5 page 97
