God Is Everywhere

Don't think of God as being far away, because God is present everywhere. "For in Him we live and move and have our being"(Acts 17:28) That means God is where you are. God is there all the time. Only faith recognizes God is present everywhere. Unbelief does not consider God present anywhere.

God is everywhere. He's where you are now. Even though you don't see God, the Bible teaches that God is everywhere. Theologians use the word omnipresence, which means God is everywhere. Therefore, we can say with the psalmist,"The Lord is near to all who call upon Him, to all who call upon Him in truth"(Psalm 145:18).

There is not only the omnipresence of God, but there is also the manifest presence of God. While God is everywhere all the time, yet God may manifest himself in different ways at different times. God manifested his presence on the Day of Pentecost in a dramatic way (Acts 2). Yet, we must not think of God as only present in dramatic and unusual ways.

Faith sees God everywhere all the time (Hebrews 11:1-6). We need not dramatic manifestations to know that God is with us everywhere. Someone may say,"How can God be with us? We can't see Him nor feel His presence." Faith does not require feelings nor manifestations to know that God is present everywhere.
