Jehovah Shammah – The Lord Is There
Pastor Dawn traced the reality of Jehovah Shammah, “The Lord Is There,” from first mention in Ezekiel 48:35b to Matthew 1:23 where it is recorded, “They called His name Immanuel, which means ‘God with us.’” God wants you to experience His Presence. God is here right now, and He wants to pour out on you and give you a taste of what is to come. As you acknowledge and seek Him, He will give you a hunger to have more of His glory. God is a Living Spirit, transforming you into His image and giving you true peace in His Presence. You ask, “Where is God?” He is here, He is there, and He is with you when you get a bad doctor’s report, and He is with you when you make major life-changing decisions. He is there when you’re lonely; He’s there when you are tempted; He’s there when you’re sad; He’s there when you are truthful. He’s always there, always offering His comfort, His love and His strength, even when you don’t feel Him. God wants you to be aware of this even when you’ve lost your faith: GOD IS THERE WITH YOU.
