Everything God does is perfect and magnificent. The only action He wants from each of us is to walk in His Presence—This is what He asked of Abraham, as it is written in Genesis 17:1, “… walk before Me and be blameless.”
It is known that perfection is exclusive to God. However, He wanted to tell Abraham that if he walked in His Presence, he would have a blameless life and that, even if he encountered problems, they would be resolved because he would always have the Creator’s guidance.
At another point, we see that the Lord Jesus also promised the same thing, but He used other words, as described in John 7:37, “If anyone thirsts, let him come to Me and drink.” What is He referring to thirst for? This Word is for those who desire righteousness, those who thirst for discipline and order, and those who desire a well-established family with a peaceful home where the Almighty can reign. When Jesus offers the Water of Life, which is the Holy Spirit, it means that He will make the person a fountain that will generate water for all eternity, which is the full and abundant life that Jesus promised. This is only possible when the person drinks the water that Jesus offers through the Holy Spirit, who is the One who gives us the direction on how to live and walk in the Presence of God.
When this truly happens, we live a worthy life that honors, glorifies, and sanctifies His Name. Many people praise God in words and hold prayer vigils—thank God for that—but sometimes, they are not truly living in His Presence. To live in the Presence of God legitimately is to be 24 hours a day with your thoughts righteous and clean, leaving your life completely in the Hands of Him, who is perfect.
