Where is God?

[Daily verse and quote]

“Where can I go from your Spirit? If I go up to the heavens, you are there; . . .

if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me,

your right hand will hold me fast.”

Psalm 139:7-10

 

A heathen philosopher once asked a Christian,

“Where is God”? The Christian answered,

“Let me first ask you: Where is He not?

Aaron Arrowsmith

Naturally, God Speaks

For the Christian the witness of the Bible is that God is with you.

See Josh 1:9, Drug 31:6  & Matt 28:20.

 

Let the non Christian ask his question, he isn't interested in the answer, only in destroying ones faith.

God is everywhere!  ...Selah

Psalm 139:7-10

7 Where can I go from Your Spirit?
Or where can I flee from Your presence?
8 If I ascend into heaven, You are there;
If I make my bed in [a]hell, behold, You are there.
9 If I take the wings of the morning,
And dwell in the uttermost parts of the sea,
10 Even there Your hand shall lead me,
And Your right hand shall hold me.

[Selah7]

You're Everywhere

Third Day

Like the rain that falls to the earth below
Watering the seed to grow
So it is with Your precious word, O Lord
It won't return until I know that

You're everywhere
You're everywhere

Like wind that blows no one really knows
From where it comes or where it goes
So it is with You Holy Spirit, Lord
Falling down on us to show that

Like the rain that falling
(You're everywhere) Like the wind that's blowing
(You're everywhere) Like the sun upon my face
I feel the warmth in Your embrace
You are everywhere

My Lord, now I truly know
That I could never go from Your presence
My God, You are everywhere
From the lowest depths to the heavens
You're always there

 

I really ❤️ this song.  Posted in Christian music videos just now...May take a little while to show up so you can go to YouTube.  I love how the guitar picks out the harmony notes.  Very cool.

God is with you, beside you, above you, and inside you.

[Daily verse and quote]

In referring to God, it can be said that He is "omnipresent"- meaning everywhere at the same time.

The subject of how God is everywhere at the same time is a hard thing for the mind to grasp.

I am reminded of the funny little story of two boys, Tommie and Billy. The 2 boys were always in the neighborhood streets getting into trouble of one sort or another, and one day the went into the neighborhood church, and were messing up the furniture and stealing little things, putting them into their pockets etc.

Well, the pastor caught them, and brought them into his office for a talk to try to straighten these 2 little boys out, and to get them on the right path. So, the pastor thought that if he could convince the 2 boys that God was everywhere, watching them, that they would have the fear of God, and stop getting into trouble, stealing, etc.  So, after sitting them down in the pastors office, he looked at Tommie and said "Young man . . . Where is God???". Tommie didn't know what to say, but he was a little scared and said nothing. Then the pastor asked again "Young man, WHERE IS GOD!!?!?!?!?!????". Tommie said nothing, but was getting afraid now. Then the 3rd time the pastor asked "Young man . . . I WANT YOU TO TELL ME,  WHERE IS GOD!!! ???.  

Then Tommie, very scared,  got up and ran out of the office and said "Come on Billie! They lost God and now they are trying to pin it on us!!!" LOL

Its a cute joke, but, sometimes we all have a little Tommie inside us, that misses the concept that God is everywhere, and that nothing we do misses His attention, and also, that we can call on Him for help in our times of need.

I hope  my comment/joke was not too off topic, but it came to my remembrance when I read your subject line.  LOL

Grace and Peace . .  Ray. . . . .

God is not defined by creation for it, (creation), is at the very begin begun... Creation points to God not encompass Him for that is impossible! God is Spirit for His Being is without the idea of begin or end ... He simply is unique in His existence and there is no other like Him! So when we try to ascertain within our limited spectrum the idea of God we are held in the limitation of our begin and as we grow in our new birth we find faith does not demand from God but waits expectantly to know Him as He 'IS'...   limitless can only be, for us, in thought but for God it 'IS' His experience alone as God... So where is He~ the answer is yes...

I agree with all the ways you describe our Lord and Savior.  Thank you for sharing.
