HIS ABIDING PRESENCE

Scripture:  Psalm 125:1-2 “They that trust in the Lord shall be as mount Zion, which cannot be removed, but abideth for ever.  As the mountains are round about Jerusalem, so the Lord is round about his people from henceforth even for ever.”

     The Psalmist is giving us encouragement here concerning His abiding presence in our lives.  “They that trust in the Lord,” are the ones to whom this blessing is promised. Those that will put their faith and trust in the Lord are shown as being secure.  They cannot be removed.  They shall forever abide with the Lord!  
    His presence is described as the mountains that are round about Jerusalem. These mountains are permanent! They will never move!  They will never go away!  So our Lord has promised that He will be with His people, now and forever!  He will never leave us, nor forsake us!  He will never walk away!  No matter how far away we may stray, He will abide with us forever.
    One of the most comforting thoughts for the believer is that wherever we may go or whatever we may do, the Lord has promised that He would be with us!  Moses told the Lord in Exodus 33 that if His presence did not go with him, he didn’t want to go any further.  The Lord assured him with these words, Ex. 33:14 “And he said, My presence shall go with thee, and I will give thee rest.”  
   John 10:28 and 29 says, “And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father's hand.   
    What a blessing to know that as we travel the pathways of life that we have someone with us, who will never leave us, but will abide with us for ever! Thank God for His abiding presence! Are you walking with Him today? Is He walking with you?
