 So often believers approach the Lord and because they don't sense His presence physically, because they don't sense His presence emotionally, they begin to panic and wonder if God has distanced Himself from them. I didn't feel God. Is He angry with me? The last time I had an encounter with God where I found Him physically was years ago. What's wrong with me? Did I say something that displeased Him? Did I do something that displeased Him? Did I open some door that I'm not aware of? They can't help but wonder, why can't I feel God? Or why am I not experiencing what they talked about in their story? Or why am I not experiencing what I read about in old books about revival and church history? And here's the problem. Sometimes, an intense desire to have an encounter with God can itself become a distraction or a barrier between you and an encounter with God. And we're waiting for our feelings to confirm something that we should already know by faith. Don't forget to subscribe.
