Disclaimer: Not really a devotional…more me pondering and self-reflecting.
“Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the Son of God, God dwelleth in him, and he in God.” 1 John 4:15 KJV
This scripture sent today through my daily verse app on my phone made me pause. God dwells in me!
He resides within me…
I have people that live in my house. They have a profound effect on it. The look and feel are affected whether I want it to be or not.
I have so many self-reflecting questions that now arise. Perhaps you have them too.
According to the verse stated above, due to my submission and confession, The Almighty has taken residence in me. His Spirit lives within Daphne. Am I acting accordingly? Are my thoughts and actions in line with Him? Do I act as though I have precious content/cargo living within?
Does my inner co-habitant cause me to walk in confidence and react as Jesus would to life situations? What is my response? Do I yield?
I’m asking myself, have I confined Him to a room or have I allowed Him to have “full run” of my life?
Then I go deeper. What do I allow my body to take in through my senses? What do I taste, hear, see, touch and smell and how does that affect His presence? Do I take care of the body that houses Him?
There is so much to consider with the knowledge of God’s presence in me. Consider His presence in you.
