Sermon: Omnipresence (omnis praesentia)Scriptures: Psalm 139:5-12, 1 Corinthians 3:16-17, Matthew 18:19-20, 2 Chronicles 7:13-15Sermon Notes:Omnipresence in the BibleJeremiah 23:23-24 – God fills the whole earth1 Kings 8:27 – Earth cannot contain GodProverbs 15:3 – God’s eyes are everywhereMatthew 28:20 – God is with usActs 17:27-28 – God is never far awayEphesians 4:6 – God is over all and in allColossians 1:17 – All things held together by GodMain Points:1. Comfort & Challenge: God sees and knows all things. It comforts us because there is no difficulty that escapes his view. It challenges us because he sees every sinful heart. 2. Fellowship Reflects God: God’s presence is inside us, but his glory is reflected in our fellowship and communal worship. Inviting his glory activates his power. 3. God Dwells In Righteousness: Humility and prayer are important, but God responds to righteousness because it’s sacrificial and reflects the sacrifice he made for us. Notes: David is uniquely positioned to speak of God’s Kingdom Authority because he himself is a king. He understands that a kingdom is accessible to a king, but that a king is not always accessible to the kingdom. However, he sees God’s ability to be everywhere at all times for all his people and he marvels over it. God’s presence is in us personally, but his glory is found in our fellowship and corporate worship. He says he is always with us but makes it so that we must gather two or three to see his power activated fully. The presence of God is further activated through upholding a Biblical standard of righteousness in our lives. When we live for God, it invites him to move in and through us with greater fluidity. Humility and prayer are good, but it takes turning away from sin to truly see the power of God activated personally and/or corporately.
