The Presence and the manifestation of the Presence are not the same. There can be the one without the other. God is here when we are wholly unaware of it. He is manifest only when and as we are aware of His Presence. On our part there must be surrender to the Spirit of God, for His work it is to show us the Father and the Son. If we co- operate with Him in loving obedience God will manifest Himself to us, and that manifestation will be the difference between a nominal Christian life and a life radiant with the light of His face.

A.W Tozer - Pursuit of God
The global church is continuing the Book of Acts, and we have exchanged the Presence and Power for Pragmatism and practicality.

They have built their movements around His Presence, Much of what we have built in the American Church is around the void of His absence.
Church models around seekers — instead of Him

Church movements around celebrities — instead of His Presence

Church services around style — Instead of His Presence

Striven to be Culturally Relevant and without knowing it, become irrelevant.

We need to become Kingdom Relevant: instead of making the Bible applicable to our everyday lives, we need to make our everyday lives applicable to the Bible.

There was a time in Israel’s history when there were 2 tabernacles: the Tab of Moses in Gibeon and the Tabernacle of David. Difference? One had the Presence the other didn’t.
