Do You Always Want To Live In The Presence Of God?

in bible •  7 years ago 

Lord, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart. Psalms 15:1-2 (KJV)

The Word of God has answers to all the questions of life. As a child of God, if you have any question about your life, go to the Holy Scriptures for answers. The Psalmist asked a question about who will abide in the tabernacle or dwell in the holy hill of the LORD. After he had finished asking the question, the LORD gave him an answer. There is one thing that is synonymous to the tabernacle and the holy hill: the presence of God lived there. In the new dispensation, the bodies of all believers in Christ Jesus are the dwelling place of God. In other words, when you become born again, you are born into the presence of God and God lives in you. The keys to continually enjoy the presence of God are to walk in uprightness, work righteousness, and speaking the truth always. Use these keys to live a triumphant life in Christ. Hallelujah! Be An Overcomer!

I fail to see how Psalm 15 applies to Christians today.

What applied in the Old Testament doesn't apply to Christians today.

God is omnipresent so everyone already lives in the presence of God. Plus, if you're born again then the Holy Spirit lives inside you.

You can draw closer to God by engaging in spiritual discipline. You can pray everyday, read your Bible everyday, go to church regularly, take obedience seriously, listen to scripture based Christian music, and Christian podcasts.
