Mt 22:29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. II. . . SEEK THE PRESENCE OF GOD. 4 The LORD is in his holy temple, Moses prayed, “If thy presence go not with me, carry us not up hence” (Exod. 33:15).

To disciples“Lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world [age]”Matt. 28:20). When Paul had been forsaken of all men, he could declare, “ (2Tim 4:17) Notwithstanding the Lord stood with me, and strengthened me; that by me the preaching might be fully known, and that all the Gentiles might hear: and I was delivered out of the mouth of the lion.,
