Holy Ground Is Wherever You Are Right Now

 

Holy Ground Is Wherever You Are Right Now

"The commander of the Lord’s army replied, ‘Take off your shoes, for the place where you are standing is holy ground.’" – Joshua 5:15

Bare feet standing on holy ground symbolizing Divine presence


   Holy ground is right where you are. Holy ground is not confined to a church, mosque, or synagogue, it exists wherever your feet stand. This is because Divinity is the everywhere, evenly present Spirit of absolute good. There is no location where Divine Presence is absent. Every place your feet touch is holy ground.

   Wherever you are physically, emotionally, mentally, or spiritually, you are standing on holy ground. This moment, this place, this season of your life is sacred because Divinity is present right here, right now.

   In Joshua’s encounter, the angelic commander instructed him to remove his shoes as an act of recognition and reverence. Whenever we become aware that we are standing on holy ground, a shift occurs. There is often something to release, something to let go, so we may fully honor the sacredness of the moment.

   First: Commander Spoke. Divinity speaks directly in the present moment. The Divine voice does not call us elsewhere; it affirms the holiness of our exact position and awakens us to the awareness of Divine Presence right where we are.

   Second: Shoes Removed. Removing the shoes symbolizes releasing what is no longer aligned with the highest good. This includes Thinking (thoughts), Theology (words), and Treatment (actions). Let go of beliefs, speech, and behaviors that do not honor the holy ground beneath your feet.

   Third: Stand Still. Pause intentionally. Stand firm in stillness. Allow yourself to fully inhabit the sacred reality of this moment without rushing ahead. Divine placement unfolds as you honor where you are now.

   This is a kingdom principle of Divine placement: right where you are is holy ground. Recognize it. Release what hinders you. Stand still in sacred awareness. Divinity meets you here and now, offering abundant life.

   Right Where You Are! (Joshua 5:15)
   1. Commander Spoke
   2. Shoes Removed
   3. Stand Still

📖 Reflection: What thoughts, words, or actions might you need to release to fully recognize the holy ground where you are right now?

💡 Action Step: Pause today and intentionally acknowledge Divine Presence in your current situation. Affirm aloud, “Right where I am is holy ground.”

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
