How do we know Christ's presence with us is real?

Answered in 1 source

We know Christ's presence is real through our heart's longing for Him and His promised engagement with us in worship.

The reality of Christ's presence among His people is evidenced by our sincere desires for Him and His Word. When believers earnestly seek the Lord, as illustrated in Isaiah 65:24, we can be assured that He hears us and is close to us. Our hearts, filled with a deep yearning for communion with Him, reflect that He is already at work within us, reminding us of His unbreakable covenant and grace. Moreover, Hebrews 4:16 embraces the invitation to approach the throne of grace with confidence, reinforcing that Christ desires our fellowship.

Additionally, the experiences of the church collectively demonstrate the presence of Christ. When believers gather for worship and prayer, they often sense His nearness in moments of shared joy, conviction, and encouragement. This shared experience confirms that Christ is not only a theological concept but a living reality amongst His people, providing hope, guidance, and communion through the Holy Spirit.
