Prioritising His Presence (His Presence)

Good morning.

so,

I thought I was prepared in the message. Yesterday, the title gave me was a prioritizing his presents. That sound okay. Sounds tinny

Josh Bryant.

father, pray that time as we move into 2026, Yeah, your time coming by the mess. You want to come by this morning in Jesus name? Amen.

So we all have priorities.

Okay. So we all have priorities. In life.

That people still do it about the New Year resolutions that people still do outside stuff. well, thing we want to achieve in 2025 and 2026.

And that's and that's all well and good.

Aloe vera plant need to be founded them. The word of God. I walked outside to us. Personally, I walked outside to ask off early.

I live alone. Said, two challenges of this morning Felicia online. Uh, yeah. You listen lights are on in the room. I want to challenge is about prioritizing his presence.

About the things.

There are many voices cry out for our time. Flash. If I'm like what it said, your multiple social media accounts. If you dive multiple multiple accounts. Hello. That's where cars are the things that can fill your life? I'll fill your time.

I think the log onto a sizes, as we going to 2026 that we need to prioritize his presence Above All Else. Another things will fit into place.

Tony Bennett, the first picture.

So, you're going to have to look at 1 Kings 17. LOL, we'll see how that goes.

So one Kings is a very last 16 17, 18. 19 is a very familiar chapter talks about Elijah, it's Elijah's. All right, talks about I was about to loud. He was a ball. Who was that fertility? A rain God.

Another interesting wife spell Jezebel.

So it pick up the starting 1 Kings 17.

when the send to Elijah to.

Make some decorations at walking $0.17 and Elijah, the tishbite, all the inhabitants of Gilead set to a app. How's the Lord? The god of Israel lives? Before whom I stand. That shall be. Not beat you nor rain these years, except by my word.

I have believed in ball. Silly by Elijah who believed in the world, true Living God. So if I decide not going to rain by your God, the thing I need to notice is Elijah makes a statement before whom I stand

At least and always sit in the presence of God everyday. We're on the bus or at work or at school, whatever we are waiting on God's presence. Where does Representatives?

People watch, always say it. What shall we do? Cuz we have God's Representatives. this man, understood He was standing in God's presence. that's because I wasn't something, they

A theoretical exercise for him. It was a tangible truth.

And we stand in God's presence this morning. God is here.

I got a concert to recognize that his presence goes with us. It's around us all the time just because you cannot send selfie, that doesn't mean he's not with us. Sometimes you can't and you be feel the presence of God all the time, time to fill the president, doesn't mean he's not that

soolantra, these word

Another side to him and bus to of 1 Kings 17. The weather Lord, came to him saying, get away from here until he stood and Hyde, by the Brook Church, which flows into the jardim. I will pay you that you shall drink from the brook. I have commanded the Ravens to feed you that. So I went and did a count of the word of the Lord for he went and stayed by the Brook cherith which flowed into the John. The Ravens brought him bread and meat in the morning. My brother meeting the evening, I need to run from the brook.

It happened after a while, the brook dried up because that be no rain in the land.

I noticed that Elijah. Recognize the presence of God, Elijah. I got 11 in God's presence is easier for us to hear. What is saying? if you got, Lots of other things competing but our time which may be violated. There's lots of things we have to do in life, but how we prioritize it, I want to. I want to draw it out from here, was a lie.

Was in God's presence, and you heard what God Said.

Go set to. Okay. Now, go and sit by the book chat as soon as I get to the Ravens to feed you and the day and the evening, and drink the water, right. Unless, you know, you know, you know, it's got Spice. But he went because he knew it was God's voice.

so it's important that we know God's presence so we can hear God's voice cuz the two things are Linked. Yeah, he cannot walk and be in God's presence. You're not going to hear what God is saying. You're not going to hear what God is saying, you're on your own.

Recommendation. Number one, you don't want to be on your arm. We walk by faith and we don't walk by sight. We need the presence of God.

So, the brook dried up.

Subway source of supply.

Was no more.

Lego said, Arise go to Zarephath, which belongs to side and then do all that. So you have commanded a widow. That's what they provide for you. That's why I'm king 17 829. when we walking in God's presence and we got into that pattern, Gatos Paytas on the right is when someone's mother thing ends, another door opens. If you're not in that guy for Not In God's Presence, we're not going to hear what God is saying. All right, this is a fundamental basic stuff but walking outside because we need to put a reminder for the straightforward Basics, that we walk in the basics, he got the basics. What I know that things will fall into place, all right. We do not know what 2026 holds for the. Oh yeah. But we do know that we are going to have to walk by faith and not by sight. I went out to Pratt, I've got presents to make sure we're ready to do what he wants us to do when he wants us to do it. We do not want to miss God. We do not want to miss God. I don't want you to in our lives and then us as a corporate body. We are all responsible. We are all responsible for hearing God for us at Lowe's. It's not something that has responsibilities if got for you. Everyone is responsible.

Does Alzheimer's in that. Trust and Obey. No other way to be happy in Jesus. But to trust and obey,

So, they tell the Sun.

Trust and Obey What God Says to do.

If you're rolling out to 1 Kings 19, verse 11 on Woods,

this is after Elijah has been up to Mount Carmel East. Basically. Go to the trash around the offering is filled it with Walters is doused the offering with water, God Answers by fire and looked up all the water in the trench and burn to the printer and then is killed. S 450 prophets of Baal.

So I went from Big hi to get the message. When Jezebel was saying coming to get you, I'm going to kill you and I'll see you out there at the moment and I a flight to Mount Carmel.

So, just pick up. Plaza Mount Carmel.

And about said, go out and stand on the mountain before the Lord. I'm at home with the law passed by. I was a great and strong wind tore into the mountain and broke the rocks in peace before the Lord. The Lord is not in the Wind.

Enough of the wind, an earthquake. Too loud. Was not in the earthquake. Not to the earthquake of Fire. But the Lord is not in the fire.

And after the fire a still small voice.

So, it was when the largest heard it got to run out to the his face and his mom. Till I went out and stood at the entrance of the cave. suddenly, I've always kind to him and said, what you doing here, Elijah? Any weather is Dale. Will even stay up. And that's not that the point of the scripture.

God wasn't in the wind. He wasn't in the earthquake. It was in the fire. It was in the still small voice.

I noticed a lie Joe you when it was time to go out,

Timing is key to hearing from God, okay? Time is Key to hear me from God. God speaks to us. In different ways. God speaks to each individual has a patent. How he speaks to people. You need to find your pattern.

You need to find your pattern. It always speak. And we need to find out how he speaks to you. Yes, he speaks to you so that the word. Yes, it might drop something into your spread, it the other way of doing things, all right. With this individual to everyone in this room, I've been listening online. The same light that is individual. I got treats. You like an individual will not? All chocolate soldiers, you know? Got raised like individuals and he speaks of individually.

And he sounds like me when he speaks to me, it sounds like me.

And he speaks in English.

Yeah, if you want from, if you are nice. In English. My speech, a different way.

I can't sit here. I know God's patent. Yeah.

Psalm 46 verse 10, says be still and know. I am God. Be still and know that I am. God.

On the casings to haircut. If I'm God, one of the key things is to be still In a world where is 24/7? Everything is going on.

Nothing seems to stop something happens inside the world. If you look on your phone, he tells you about it in great detail. If I okay, when I whatever. And everything is moving. I was moving. But God says be still and know we need to cry. Some be still and know time.

Jesus rose early in the morning.

I'll sometimes late in the evening. He go and pray. He was a busy boy, I trust you. And the day he was out preaching Administration, and Healing, The Sick, cast out devils.

I had an Entourage that went with him, people around him all the time.

Mach 1 35 puzzle this way now. In the morning, haven't risen a long while before daylight he went outside departed to a salty place and that he prayed

So no electricity.

No semoball, no Coffey. He went out to Salt, your place to pray.

He connected with the father and they walked in that presence through the day.

Jesus is a model we need to follow his pattern with the father walk in his presence. How much more do we need to do that? I'm not talkin about.

Ministry besides lay hands on the sick. What I'm talking about, just getting through the day, successfully walking by faith walking in love walking in Pace. Walking in forgiveness, we need that connection. We need that presence daily to be successful in our daily walk. Yeah.

Luke 5:16. Game itself. Often withdrew into the Wellness and pride.

Being still and receiving from God, okay.

As we move into 2026. Wants to remind this, Of the fundamentals of relationship.

If your mom had to go kick it in speak to me all day. I said nothing to her then if I have to, I'll decide to go to problem.

How much more do we need to connect to the father Jesus and the Holy Spirit?

He may not be a morning person. You might be like, Dave, who's an evening person.

You just need to work out. What works for you? Then stick with a bottom.

Need to get accustomed to his voice. Not the voices all around. There's that many voices crying for our time right now. Funny voices. Need to get accustomed to his voice. Anyway, you do a lot is by spending time with him so you let you know when it when it's him speaking and not somebody else. Are the change God whatever?

I was outside of a line with Edgewood Boulevard with his principles.

Haven't talked with you about The Hobbit.

Spohn, Hospital fall into condemnation. Yeah, Yeah. From God immediately.

Somebody wanted to hear that God and out here in the morning or not. I'm some kind of God sometimes God does that he makes us wait longer.

I need to speak but God is always speaking sweetheart. That moment you have to get up and go to work, but listen Israel today cuz he's always speaking, he's always speaking. The key thing is, when always listening tuned to watch the same.

Navigate to condemnation.
