In His Presence..........

HOLINESS According to the Strong’s exhaustive concordance Holy is mentioned in the bible 611times. The first place Holy is mentioned is in Exodus 3:5 And he said, Draw not nigh hither: put off thy shoes from off thy feet, for the place whereon thou standest is holy ground . God called the place Holy because God was there, does this mean that any place God is should be regarded as holy? I believe so. Leviticus 10:1 Then Nadab and Abihu, the sons of Aaron, each took his censer and put fire in it, put incense on it, and offered profane fire before the Lord , which He had not commanded them. 2  So fire went out from the Lord and devoured them, and they died before the Lord . 3  And Moses said to Aaron, “This is what the Lord spoke, saying: ‘By those who come near Me, I must be regarded as holy;And before all the people I must be glorified.’” Nadab and Abihu offered profane fire in the presence of God, and God killed them.

Man enjoyed close communion with God, they will take walks together in the cool of the garden and talk to each other, they enjoyed each other’s company because God loved them dearly and they returned that love by obeying God, their loving Father who had told them not to eat of the tree of knowledge of go...

Last week I had been studying about the Bread of Life and so when I picked up my timetable to check what topic I would be teaching my children in Sunday school, you can imagine the joy I felt when I realised it would be the Bread of Life. God must really be interested in this topic I thought, and we had an amazing time with children on Sunday. Man is naturally a hungry being, always hungry for food. And even after eating a horse like we usually say when we are so hungry, give it a few more hours and we are hungry again. Exodus 25: 30 the showbread was set before God always. Jesus Christ represents the bread that is set before God continually, so if we have Jesus in us it means that our lives are continually set before God. John 6; 53 Jesus said except ye eat of the flesh of the son of man ye have no life in you, so if we do not eat this bread which symbolises Jesus then we have no life in us and because we have no life our lives are not set on the table before God always like th...
