Present Tense

Read – Psalm 139:1-18

Scripture: “Lo, I AM with you always, even unto the end of the age.
Amen. (Matthew 28:20).”

Denial: “God has never and will never leave me.”

Affirmation: “There is Only One Power and One Presence, and I
AM one with that power and presence.”

God is omnipresence. God is all the presence there is. There is no presence outside of God. God is the everywhere, evenly present, Spirit of Absolute Good. We do not use the limiting adjective,
omnipresent, to describe God. Instead, we say, omnipresence, because no other being can make such a claim. 

Omni means all. As human beings, we are not omnipresent. Our bodies cause us to be in a particular place at a particular time. Although we are not omnipresent, as heirs of God and joint heirs with Christ Jesus, our presence makes a difference (Romans 8:17).

When we are conscious of the I AM of our being, we can change
any environment from negative to positive, just by being present.
Sometimes we need not even have to open our mouths. All we have
to do is show up and our very presence transforms the atmosphere.
Notice, the words, I AM, are in the present tense. I AM is always
present, right here and right now. When we decree and declare our
good through affirmations, they are always in the present tense
because I AM is always present. God is Jehovah Shammah, which
means I AM that I AM there, or I AM that I AM Presence (Ezekiel
48:35). We are one with that presence. That presence has never left
us and will never forsake us.

  Are You a People Pleaser (Matthew 14:6) 06 February 2024   Who are you pleasing today? Some of us are people pleasers. We live our entire lives trying to please people, trying to get their approval and validation. We get pleasure out of pleasing other people, and so we do everything looking for people to be pleased with us.   Are you living your life for people, trying to please people? Some of us try to please ourselves, and we forget people. I AM    pleasing myself, and so all our lives are consumed with self-pleasure, and immediate gratification, and so we live our lives pleasing ourselves, or are you pleasing God? Are you living your life with one purpose: to please God? Are you concerned with whether or not God is pleased with you? At the end of the day, when God says well done, thou good and faithful servant, you have been faithful over a few things. I will make you rule over me. That’s what I Am living for.   I am living to please God; I desi...

  The Kingdom is About Growth (Matthew 13:24-30)   The kingdom is about growth, not condemnation, judgment, sin, abomination, transgression, or iniquity. The kingdom of God is about growth. Jesus said it is like wheat and weeds, or "tares," as some versions say. As you grow, once you plant a seed in the ground, you don’t just get what you get; you also get weeds. As you keep growing, you will outgrow any behavior, any way of being, seeing, thinking, speaking, or acting that is not like God; you will outgrow it. Stop trying to pull up the weeds and keep growing. Stop trying to put people out of your life because some of the people you think are weeds are really wheat, and some of the people you feel are wheat might not be. Just keep growing, and it will automatically separate. Jesus said the growth in the kingdom is like a mustard seed. It starts as the smallest seed, but it’s potent. So do not despise the days of small beginnings; keep growing. Don’t compare yourself to a...

  I AM a Good Tree and I Bring Forth Good Fruit (Matthew 12:3) I AM a good tree, and I bring forth good fruit. I was created that way. When God made everything, He spoke over the creation and said it was good. When He got to human beings, He said not only were we good, but we were very good. Affirm with me today: I AM a good tree because I was created that way. It doesn’t matter what anybody else says; I was created good. God said I was very good.   Good is the essence of who I AM. Because I AM a good tree, not only was I created that way, but I also continue in that way. My good is a continuation of how I was created. Because I AM a good tree and I was created that way, my way of being is good. The energy and aura that come from me that exudes from me are good because I AM a good tree. How I see people, places, and things is good because I AM a good tree. I can’t help but see the good in God and people because I was created that way, so I continue that way. My way of th...
