Holy Ground
“He said, ‘Do not come near, take your sandals off your feet, for the place on which you are standing is holy ground.’ And He said, ‘I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob.’” (Ex 3:5-6)
Jesus promised to be with us until the end of the age, but honestly, there times in our day that we can become so focused on the moment that we forget His presence. When our days get so busy and stress levels rise, it is in those moments that we fail to remember He is present with us. There are times when it becomes so hard to see past the trials and troubles of life that we become so consumed with trying to power through in our own strength that we forget to rely on the power that Jesus promises and provides. God wants to reveal Himself to us in the middle of our daily tasks and worries, just like He did to Moses at the burning bush. The Holy Spirit burns within the heart of the child of God, and the place where “you are standing is holy ground.” My friend, take a moment to look for evidence of God in our daily life, in those moments of striving and in your trials. Remember He is always with you, and in His presence you are walking on holy ground. Father, thank You that You will never leave me, and I am never alone. You always care, and You hear me when I call. Help me to know You more fully and recognize Your holy presence at every waking moment. Thank You for loving me. Thank You for Your faithfulness and indwelling me with Your holy presence and Your power. In the blessed Name of Jesus. Amen.
