FAITH FOR MIRACLES SERIES 


5. SEEK & DWELL IN THE PRESENCE OF GOD


Miracles happen when we enjoy and desire the presence of God through worship.


God wants us to tap into His unlimited power so we can be overcomers and fulfill His purposes on earth. How do we tap into His unlimited power? We need to fall in love with God above all else and enjoy coming into His presence. Our greatest love and desire on earth should be God because God created us to worship Him. We need to remain in the Holy Spirit always so that Christ may manifest through us. We are nothing without the Holy Spirit. We need to rely on the Holy Spirit in the big or small things.


The more we seek the presence of God, the more God can guide us to do supernatural things through the Holy Spirit. I like to spend time worshipping God alone before every ministry whether I am in a big crusade or small meeting. I do not want to stand before people pretending that I have special power or ability. I know my ability to hear from God and do the work of God comes through spending time waiting and listening to Him. I rather pray a few words with the power and anointing of God than utter hundreds of words without any result.

Psalm 84:1-12


1 How lovely is your dwelling place, O Lord Almighty! 2 My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God. 3 Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young— a place near your altar, O Lord Almighty, my King and my God. 4 Blessed are those who dwell in your house; they are ever praising you. Selah 5 Blessed are those whose strength is in you, who have set their hearts on pilgrimage. 6 As they pass through the Valley of Baca, they make it a place of springs; the autumn rains also cover it with pools. 7 They go from strength to strength, till each appears  before God in Zion. 8 Hear my prayer, O Lord God Almighty; listen to me, O God of Jacob. Selah 9 Look upon our shield, O God; look with favor on your anointed one. 10 Better is one day in your courts than a thousand elsewhere; I would rather be a doorkeeper in the house of my God than dwell in the tents of the wicked. 11 For the Lord God is a sun  and shield; the Lord bestows favor and honor; no good thing does he withhold from those whose walk is blameless. 12 O Lord Almighty, blessed  is the man who trusts in you.
