Experiencing God's Omni-Presence

God is everywhere, created everything and everyone, and exists eternally. He created time, and tis Master over and controls it. He created the elements, and is Master over and controls them. He created the three realms of reality (spiritual, supernatural and natural) and therefore is Master over and controls them. 

God’s Manifest Presence

There are also times and situations in which God chooses to make Himself known to our physical senses. The scriptures are replete with examples of His making Himself known in various ways (burning bush, dove, even angelic representations). In our age He has manifested Himself in this present reality through His Son, who was fully real as fully man. Personally, there may be times when He chooses to make Himself known to our physical senses; a personal visitation, the scent of roses, a touch of His hand, the sound of His knocking or footsteps, His calling our name, or even a taste of honey. He wants to increase our awareness of this possibility so that when He reveals Himself in this way we will recognize it is Him and respond appropriately.

God’s Personal Presence

Finally there is that personal awareness that is unique for each of us. Though it is exciting and encouraging to experience a supernatural or natural manifestation of God, what He longs for is an intimacy that has been so fine-tuned that we don’t need to have His presence or direction confirmed through outward manifestations. Since we are spirit beings, we are in constant union with Him now, so we are experiencing this personal presence now, though pretty much only in our spirit. As we pursue knowing Him inwardly, our confidence in recognizing His presence without an outward expression will grow to where He will be able to guide, direct and commune with us one-on-one as deep speaks to deep. The hidden things are protected from the encroachments of this age, and God keeps them hidden FOR His beloved.
