THE MANIFESTATION OF CHRIST

THE MANIFESTATION OF CHRIST

by Bill Elliff November 15, 2022

There is nothing more precious nor important than the presence of Christ. Everything flows from the presence of the Lord. If you have Him, you have everything you need. Without Him, you have nothing that matters or lasts. Look through Scripture and human history. When Christ shows up, everything changes.

WITH HIM

WITH HIM

by Bill Elliff November 11, 2022

Think of this deeply. Let it sink into your soul. Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Alpha and Omega, Beginning and End, the Creator of all, wants to be with you! He has provided everything necessary for this to occur. He has initiated this relationship and it is not to be a momentary acquaintance but an eternal, increasing friendship. What a humbling thought and matchless privilege. And what a tragedy if we ignore His invitation and live without His presence. It was never meant to be so.

THE SUFFICIENCY OF GOD'S PRESENCE

THE SUFFICIENCY OF GOD'S PRESENCE

There are many times in life when we feel adrift, alone, abandoned. When we do not know which way to turn, which path to take.

If we’re not careful, our minds can wander and become envious of others, just like the Psalmist in Psalm 73. His “steps came close to slipping” until he came into the sanctuary of God.

WHY YOU SHOULD PLACE GOD AT THE CENTER

WHY YOU SHOULD PLACE GOD AT THE CENTER

by Bill Elliff February 23, 2022

The book of Numbers in the Scripture begins with a seemingly laborious account of a census taken of all the Israelites after they came out of Egypt. But this very accounting has a purpose. As always, it teaches us something about God.

THE PROMISE OF GOD'S PRESENCE

THE PROMISE OF GOD'S PRESENCE

by Bill Elliff January 22, 2020

The omnipresence of God is a reality (that God is everywhere all the time). “Where can I go from Thy Spirit?” David said (Psalm 139). And, since the coming of Christ and Pentecost, which was the sending of His indwelling Spirit to all who believe, the true follower of Christ is assured that Christ will never leave them nor forsake them personally. Once the Spirit comes to reside in the believing heart, He is there permanently.

But, it is possible to have our head turned by the world, the flesh, and the devil. We can quench and grieve the Spirit who lives within us. We can ignore Him or resist His leadership. If we do so, we will lose the conscious awareness of His presence. We will begin to operate on our own, not walking by the Spirit, and the results are always disastrous. We get what our humanity brings. Like an unseen guest standing in the shadows, He is still present, but not prominent.
