GOD'S PRESENCE
II Samuel 6:12, 14-15
"Now it was told King David, saying, 'The LORD has blessed the house of Obed-Edom and all that belongs to him, because of the ark of God.' So David went and brought up the ark of God from the house of Obed-Edom to the City of David with gladness .... So David danced before the LORD with all his might ... So David and all the house of Israel brought up the ark of the LORD with shouting and with the sound of the trumpet."
The ark of God was the dwelling-place on earth of the Eternal God. Where God's presence was, there was blessing and joyful praise. When Jesus was born, the angels rejoiced because Emmanuel (God with us) had come down to live with us and bless us. Today, I am the dwelling-place of God (I Corinthians 3:16). My life and my family has been truly blessed by God's abiding presence. When I get down in the mollygrubs and lose my joy, I tend to forget God's blessing in my life because I forget that God is here – living in me. What joy that He is here! Excuse me while I dance! HALLELUJAH!!!!!!
TODAY'S PRINCIPLE: The Presence of God brings blessing and rejoicing.

Have an Emmanuel (God with us) day. Love you.
