Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Friday 13th March 2026  Topic: In His Presence - Persisting In His Presence 2 Text: Psalms 15:1-2   "LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart." Reflection:  Continuation From yesterday Devotional.  Provide me with a sense of security in life.  A hill is a symbol for something permanent. Indeed, David’s desire was not for the ark of the covenant to be kept forever in a tent. He wanted to eventually house the ark in a temple on mount Moriah. In speaking of the "holy hill" of God, David was referring to the fact that living daily with an awareness of God’s presence in my life provides me with a sense of security concerning my one day being with the Lord in heaven. Living my life with a daily awareness of God’s presence allows me to be directed in my pilgrimage today here on earth and to...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Thursday 12th March 2026  Topic: In His Presence - Persisting In His Presence  Text: Psalms 15:1-2   "LORD, who shall abide in thy tabernacle? who shall dwell in thy holy hill? He that walketh uprightly, and worketh righteousness, and speaketh the truth in his heart." Reflection:  David understood that living with the realization of God’s presence in my life has the power to: Provide me with a sense of direction in life. The word for "sanctuary or tabernacle" literally means "tent," and refers to the tent that David pitched for the ark of the covenant to be placed in. A tent is a symbol for something transient and temporary. A tent is easily struck, it is a moveable house, the very symbol of pilgrimage in the Old Testament. Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob lived in tents although they were wealthy men and could easily have built palaces to live in instead. They were content, however, to live in tents, so that they m...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Wednesday 11th March 2026  Topic: In His Presence  Text : Exodus 33 :14 "My presence will go with you, and I will give you rest" Reflection:  "Yes, goodness and mercy will accompany me all the days of my life and I will dwell in the house of the Lord until the end of my days" Psalms 23 :6 One of the things that God has promised to the children of Israel while they were in their journey to the Promised Land is that His presence would be with them.  You need the presence of God throughout your life. It is by abiding in the presence of God, that God will speak to you. But how do you remain continually in the presence of God ?  How do you take his presence in your daily life ? We remain continually in the presence of God by devoting our time to the study and meditation of the Word, finding time to worship him truly (John 4 :23 - 24), engaging in prayer and fasting and the keeping of our christian devotion daily. I...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Tuesday 10th March 2026  Topic: In His Presence  Text:  Nehemiah 8:10  "Then he said to them, Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.’’ Reflection:  There should be time set-aside for worship, prayer and studying the word. This time should be something we have got to guard diligently. We are no good to ourselves or to anybody else if we don’t. We have to make the choice to eliminate some of the chatter and conflicts that come our way. I know this is not always an easy thing to do but we have to start somewhere.  I have found that many times when I go to spend time in the Word of God, many distractions will come to my mind. The grass needs cuttings, the dishes need to be done etc. These things will bombard your mind the second you start to spend time in the ...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Monday 9th March 2026  Topic: In His Presence  Text: Nehemiah 8:10  "Then he said to them, Go your way, eat the fat, drink the sweet, and send portions to those for whom nothing is prepared; for this day is holy to our Lord. Do not sorrow, for the joy of the Lord is your strength.’’ Reflection:  When you are down and depressed you are not full of joy are you? You are also not in His presence in that state, for you can not be in His presence and also be down and out at the same time. These things will not and can not co exist. They are opposites. Just like light and darkness are opposites, life and death are opposites, love and hate are opposites, joy and depression are opposites as well.  God is always life, God is always light, God is always love, and in His presence is fullness of joy. I tell people all the time we have a choice to make, we have a part to play in these things. Consider this, it takes your wi...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Wednesday 4th March,2026 Topic: IN HIS PRESENCE  Text: Psalm 27:4 "One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; That I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, To behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple." Reflection:  In life, many believers pursue God sincerely but treat His presence as secondary to responsibilities. We pray when overwhelmed, worship when convenient, and seek God mainly when answers are needed. People begin to assume that spiritual growth begins with discipline, but the Bible shows it begins with affection because what we love most quietly shapes how we live, and Jesus confirmed this when He said to seek first the kingdom of God. This statement was not giving a productivity principle; He was revealing a heart posture. David’s statement in Psalm 27:4 is one that's powerful when understood in context because he was not writing from a peaceful palace but...

Purity Foundation Daily Devotional  Tuesday 3rd March 2026 Topic: In His Presence  Text: Psalm 27:4 "One thing have I desired of the Lord, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the Lord all the days of my life." Reflection:  When we talk about being in God’s presence is not only about emotional experiences during worship or long prayer sessions. While those moments are valuable, true dwelling in His presence is all about  lifestyle. It means living with the awareness that God is near in every situation we find ourselves. It might be during joy, stress, work, decisions, and even silence.  Learning to include God in daily living rather than visiting Him occasionally or treating Him as an emergency number and expect a miracle out of nowhere while God does that sometimes, it doesn't mean it will work at all times. God is not a magician. Imagine someone who hasn't reached out to you for months texting you out of nowhere to ask for a fav...
