Music – Your Presence is Heaven to Me

Who is like You, Lord, in all the Earth?
Matchless love and beauty, endless worth
Nothing in this world will satisfy
Jesus, You’re the cup that won’t run dry

Your presence is heaven to me
Your presence is heaven to me

Treasure of my heart and of my soul
In my weakness, You are merciful
Redeemer of my past and present wrongs
You’re the holder of my future days to come

Your presence is heaven to me
Your presence is heaven to me

Oh Jesus, oh Jesus
Your presence is heaven to me
Oh Jesus, Oh Jesus
Your presence is heaven to me

Scriptures

Psalm 32:8
I will instruct thee and teach thee in the way which thou shalt go: I will guide thee with mine eye.

Isaiah 30:21
Your ears shall hear a word behind you, saying, “This is the way, walk in it,” Whenever you turn to the right hand Or whenever you turn to the left.

• Abraham whose blessing we inherit by redemption got the blessing by constant direction from God as well as his willingness and response to those instructions.
• Moses fulfilled his purpose as a deliverer by adherence to instructions. The ark of the covenant had clear directions on how the were to be done as well as the outfits for the priests.
• The day Moses struck the rock instead of pointing at it, disobeying God, he lost the opportunity to enter the promised land.
• Noah built the ark with clear instructions on the dimensions of the ark.

Psalm 23
The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.
He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters.

• David never missed his way because he was always directed by God
• The day he decided not to go to war without asking God, he impregnated Uriah’s wife and killed him to cover up.
