You are a Presence Carrier

When the enemies of God, the Philistines, captured the Ark of the Lord they thought they 

could use it as a weapon against their enemies. 

-Remember Indiana Jones and the Lost Ark?  

Same idea.  So they brought it into their temple and set it next to 

their god, Dagon.  The next day Dagon 

had fallen on his face before the Ark of the Lord.

Fast forward 2,000+ years and today believers in Jesus 

carry that very same Presence. 

The Ark of the Lord held the Presence of Almighty God before Jesus Christ had died on 

the cross at Calvary.  Since that day forward, the Presence of God now dwells within 

those who ask him to.  His Presence is also known as Holy Spirit. 

So the next time you go anywhere, if you are a believer 

in Jesus, remember you are carrying his Presence.

Stop for a minute and just think about that.  That is a powerful thought 

isn’t it?

One thing the Philistines got right is that the Presence of God is a weapon. - just not the 

type of weapon they were hoping for.

The Presence of God, Holy Spirit, is a spiritual weapon.  One 

that tears down the strongholds of the enemy, our adversary, the Devil and his demons.

Ask Holy Spirit to show you how you can partner with 

him demonstrating the power and the Presence of God in 

your life daily.
