You must first realize you are in darkness. Complacency is the enemy. You must realize that living without the conscious presence of God is abnormal and tragic.
Lord, I will not let You go until You bless me. I claim the promise of Your Word: 'Draw near to God, and He will draw near to you.' I come now, not in my own righteousness, but in the name of Jesus. Fill me with Your Spirit. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation. Let me walk in the light as You are in the light. I believe I receive it now. Amen." experiencing the presence of god by charles finney pdf
