Day 346 - God's presence

I wanted to check how much in the Bible the factor of God's presence appears, and how much we sing it and talk about it, so here it is:

"Tremble, earth, at the presence of the Lord, at the presence of the God of Jacob" Psalms 114:7

"the earth shook, the heavens poured down rain, before God, the One of Sinai, before God, the God of Israel" Psalms 68:8

"He was with God in the beginning." John 1:2

"And the people of Beth Shemesh asked, "Who can stand in the presence of the LORD, this holy God? To whom will the ark go up from here?" 1 Samuel 6:20

"The angel said to him, "I am Gabriel. I stand in the presence of God, and I have been sent to speak to you and to tell you this good news." Luke 1:19

"May he be enthroned in God's presence forever; appoint your love and faithfulness to protect him."
Psalms 61:7
"Each year you and your family are to eat them in the presence of the LORD your God at the place he will choose." Deuteronomy 15:20


With those verses I conclude that being in God's presence is something more complex than we think, it means having this privilege, being blessed, VIP, chosen; at the same time it means being holy, and protected by His grace. His presence is so powerful that earth trembles, incredible things happens, and then at the same time, it means being His children, playing around Him innocently, with no fear and with no pride. His presence is wonderful, it's overwhelming and just inexplicable.
