Not Just Another Face in the Crowd

.

Not Just Another Face in the Crowd
8.7.15

It pains me to think of all the times in my daily walk that I've checked quiet time off my list, then dashed out the door to jump into a crazy day without ever giving quiet time and my fellowship with my Lord another thought!

These were days that were full of people, rehearsals, teaching, concerts, recitals, and meetings......always face to face with a lot of people, but Jesus ended up being just another face in the crowd.

Now, I'm just beginning to learn something! I need His presence every passing hour - I know you must feel that way too!  The enemy is prowling about desiring to trip us up and lure us away from the Light and into his darkness. He's trying every day to ruin our witness and to keep us lulled into complacency. He knows that our witness and walk are the key to turning the tide in this evil world!  He's coming at you today with guns blazing! Today and EVERY day! 

Don't you want to be used to turn the tide??  If we are going to be agents of change and empty vessels that He can shine His glorious light through to dispel this present darkness, then we have to cling to this!

"My presence shall go with thee" Exodus 33:14

We must start each day with an emptying of self, a clinging to Him, a firm determination to take His presence with us through the day, AND a claiming of His promise!

"My presence shall go with thee"

He's promised His presence to those who love and seek Him. Though the enemy would pull out all the stops to keep this from happening, you CAN experience the presence and the power of the Holy Spirit  as you walk out the door, at work.... All day long!  And He won't be just another face in the crowd, and you'll reflect His presence....His Light!

"The whole world was lost in the darkness of sin. The Light of the world is Jesus."
