Underestimating God's Presence With Us

We can underestimate and take for granted God’s presence with us. We can so easily forget His power and the peace we are promised when we look to Him, rely upon Him—live our lives trusting in Him.

Meditate on the first six verses of Psalm 18. Read them once. And then again. And then a third time. As they sink into your heart, what is it you see, hear, believe? What is God speaking to you through David’s words?

“Lord, I passionately love you and I’m bonded to you,
for now you’ve become my power!
You’re as real to me as bedrock beneath my feet,
like a castle on a cliff, my forever firm fortress,
my mountain of hiding, my pathway of escape,
my tower of rescue where none can reach me.
My secret strength and shield around me,
you are salvation’s ray of brightness shining on the hillside,
always the champion of my cause.
All I need to do is to call to you,
singing to you, the praiseworthy God.
When I do, I’m safe and sound in you.
For when the ropes of death wrapped around me
and terrifying torrents of destruction overwhelmed me,
taking me to death’s door, to doom’s domain,
I cried out to you in my distress, the delivering God,
and from your temple-throne you heard my troubled cry” (Psalm 18: 1-6, TPT).
