Two Words for 2022

Two Words for 2022 – Jon’s Notes:

Presence

Psalm 139 – where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?

Psalm 22 – We cannot escape God’s presence. But we can’t always feel it either.

His presence is constant, our perception is varied.

Isaiah 6 – I saw the Lord

Exodus 33 – show me your glory

…presence and rest

• Purpose of presence – validation and distinction – how will people know / how will we be any different from the rest of the world?

Expectancy

In his presence is fullness of joy. And we become hopeful again. Have you lost your hope? Get in his presence.

Isaiah 45:3 – I will give you hidden treasures, riches stored in secret places, so that you may know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who summons you by name.
