BEING FOUND WHERE GOD IS FOUND



TOPIC: BEING FOUND WHERE GOD IS FOUND

SCRIPTURE: 📖 And Elijah the Tishbite, who was of the inhabitants of Gilead, said unto Ahab, As the Lord God of Israel liveth, before whom I stand, there shall not be dew nor rain these years, but according to my word. 1 Kings 17:1

THOUGHT FOR TODAY: *Walking with God implies being found where God is found and being absent from where God is absent.*

Sometime ago, I went for a meeting in a hotel and then met a man who needed my counsel over an issue. He suggested that two of us should sit at the bar section of the hotel and talk. Then I told him that I would not follow him to the bar and sit down with half-naked girls who swim at the swimming pool and also with people drinking alcohol. I cannot be found there; we can talk anywhere but that kind of place is abominable for me. This is because that is an ungodly environment. And doing that would not portray a godly image of a leader to his members. If the people I lead see me in that kind of place, they would ask, ‘What is pastor doing here?’ I did that because I am not supposed to be found where God is not found. A dedicated person is only found where God is found and absent from where God is absent.

*Beloved, to be a dedicated person is to be found where God can be found and be absent from where God is absent.* Elijah told Ahab, ‘…before God whom I stand…’ (1 kings 17:1). This means, walking with God implies being found where God is found and being absent from where God is absent.

Beloved, make up your mind not to be found in a place where God is absent; *do not engage in an activity that drives God away from your life. Do not follow people to an environment where the presence or activity of the devil is perpetrated.*

Remember this: Walking with God implies being found where God is found and being absent from where God is absent.

ASSIGNMENT(S):

*1.* Disengage yourself from any ungodly association you are in.

*2.* Make up your mind to be found only where God’s presence is felt and noticed.

*3.* Do not neglect the assembling of brethren together(Hebrew 10:25).

PRAYER: O LORD, I ask and receive the grace to cultivate and maintain Your Presence. Help me LORD, to be found only where You are found, in Jesus’ Name Amen.

Daily Reading:📖 Leviticus 15-19
