Living in God's Presence
Reading
Psalm 51:10-12 KJV
10 Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. 11 Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. 12 Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.
John 15:4-5 KJV
4 Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. 5 I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

Naaman wanted to take soil from Israel back home, symbolizing his commitment to worship the true God. This reminds us of the importance of maintaining God's presence in every area of our lives. It's not enough to experience God at church; we need to cultivate His presence in our homes, workplaces, and daily interactions.
How can you create reminders of God's presence in your everyday environments? Consider establishing regular prayer times, playing worship music, or placing Scripture verses in visible locations. Remember, apart from Christ we can do nothing, but as we abide in Him, we will bear much fruit.
