You don’t realize how much you need God until you don’t have Him in your life!
Do you believe this statement is true?
We all have stepped away from God at some point in our lives. No matter if we have done it once or several times, we all know what it feels like to be without God.
We may have walked away from God because of a bad situation. We may have become distant, because life is good, and we think we don’t need Him anymore. There are many reasons why we walk away from Christ. I know I am guilty of stepping away from God. I remember once I was so consumed with life issues that I walked away from God’s presence for a short period of time. I was in a confused state of mind and decided to do life without God.
I learned something about myself during the season of darkness and confusion. I need God in every moment of my life. The truth is, you do too! God wants the good, the bad, and the ugly in all of us. In the bad times, we need to press into God more and soak in His presence. In the good times, we need to thank God for everything He has done and is doing in our lives. God is a part of every season we walk through in life. We cannot do life without God in it, no matter how hard we try to run away from Him!
The Bible is full of encouraging Scripture. The Word tells us that God helps us in time of need. Hebrews 4:16 says to “come boldly to the throne of our gracious God. There we will receive His mercy, and we will find grace to help us when we need it most.” When we come to God with our problems, He gives us grace to meet our needs. Philippians 4:19 tells us God cares about us and supplies our every need.
We are conquerors through Christ. In 1 John 5:4, it declares that “everyone born of God overcomes the world. This is the victory that has overcome the world, even our faith.” Our needs are met by God whether He is helping us through a difficult time or celebrating a victory in our lives. He is always there cheering us on to bigger and better things!
When we are on our knees, we are victors in Christ!
When we are seeking God’s presence over our lives, we will be conquerors through Christ!
To sum up this blog, we need Jesus every second, every minute, every hour, every day for the rest of our lives! We simply need God to be our everything!

Very true! Even when we don’t realize it! There were many times in my life that I wanted to be in full control of my life…and tell God and His plan (because at the time it seemed awful) to stick it. He really is amazing that He will accept not only those who have turned away from Him in the past, but even those who once felt as I did. Sometimes I still wonder if He really knows what He’s doing…and that’s okay, too. It’s now a fact in my life that I would much rather live with Him, or at least try, than to go totally without Him.

I have learned the hard way that I have to have God in my life, because if I don’t my life will be chaotic.

Yeah, there’s a limit to self-reliance and reliance on other people. God really can do anything, and sometimes we only get that when we’ve tried doing it the other way.

Yes, in good and bad times, we need to press into God more to SOAK INDEED IN HIS GLORIOUS BLESSED PRESENCE. We thank God and count our blessings in good times and in all things, thanking God for everything in our lives. God is the Reason we are alive in every season of life. No God, no life!!! Thank you for sharing this amazing Truth. No matter what we have done or ommited to do God says “come boldly to His Throne through the Blood of Jesus in repentance to receive forginess. God’s Love, Mercy, and Grace are endless to the humble in Jesus Name. Thank you and God bless you!

Oh absolutely! Learning to remove yourself and stand still is difficult, but worth it. We need him more than this life for he gives life.

It is totally worth it being in God’s presence even when we do not know where God is taking us. We have to believe and trust that He knows best! I love your statement, “We need Him more than this life for He gives life.” That’s powerful!

Thank you this is one of the greatest secrets to living if not the ultimate secret as it saved Noah and his family. The more we draw close to God the more we begin to understand Him. Above all, God Notices we make Him Priority so He Draws Closer to us too through BLOOD of Jesus in Jesus Name. Things that charmed us most away from GOD’S PRESENCE become sacrificed in the Blood of Jesus. Thank you and God bless you.
