You are the house of God...!

Genesis 28:16-17 NKJV

Then Jacob awoke from his sleep and said, “Surely the Lord is in this place, and I did not know it. ” And he was afraid and said, “How awesome is this place! This is none other than the house of God, and this is the gate of heaven!”

Shalom! Day #81. Do you know that there's no any other awesome and wonderful place than dwelling in the house of God? Let's pray. Father,  it is better to be found at Your court's than be found elsewhere. Give us a sensitive spirit that's sensitive towards Your presence and Your voice. In the temple of God we want to be found and grow. In Jesus name we ask and pray,  amen!

Surely the Lord is in this place. Wherever the Lord has placed you, you are able to create the atmosphere of heaven. In today's verse, Jacob was able to sense the presence of God at the place where he was laying and he had a dream. In that dream God showed him a ladder to heaven. God was present there where he was laying. All Jacob can express was "how awesome is this place!" Where the presence of God is, that place will be extremely awesome! Everyone of us is Bethel, the house of God. The bible says that we are the temple of God and God lives in us. So if we are in the presence of God, therefore whatsoever you do, wherever you are, you will be awesome because of God.  He brings you to a place of significance.

Now, how sure you are that the Lord dwells in His temple, you? Well sin separator between us and God. God with all His holiness and glorious majestic cannot dwell in the places where sin is present. A holy and blameless life before God, an upright heart, a righteous - these are the requirements. None of us are perfect yet we are being perfected daily in the presence of God. It's an unspeakable and indescribable environment and atmosphere when you are in the house of God.

How to experience it?

1. Through your praise and worship.

2. Through your daily devotion.

3. Through your fellowship with God.

4. Through your relationship with God.

5. Through your servanthood.

6. And this sum up to through your love and passion towards God and His calling.

Our vision, our passion and devotion. Devotion is an action resulted from vision and passion.  God is not just interested in our attitude alone, but our actions as well. You are able to create an atmosphere of heaven when you are true before God, sincerely seeking Him in worship and in word. Be the house of God!

Let this day be the day of the Lord!
