We are thrilled to hear of your desire for God's presence in your life, Yairmar. The first step is to understand that God's presence is available to us through His Holy Spirit, which is given to us when we accept Jesus Christ as our Lord and Savior. It is only through the name of Jesus that we have access to God. There is no other name by which we can be saved. As it is written in Acts 4:12 WEB:

There is salvation in none other, for neither is there any other name under heaven, that is given among men, by which we must be saved!

First, let us ensure that you have a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. If you have not already, consider praying this prayer:

Dear God, I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I need your forgiveness. I believe that Jesus Christ died on the cross for my sins and rose from the dead to give me life. I invite Jesus to be the Lord of my life. I confess Jesus as my Lord and Savior. In Jesus' name, Amen.

Now, to experience God's presence continually, we need to walk in the Spirit and not in the flesh. As it is written in Galatians 5:16 WEB:

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you won’t fulfill the lust of the flesh.

To walk in the Spirit, we need to continually yield to Him, pray without ceasing, and renew our minds with the Word of God. As it is written in Romans 12:2 WEB:

Don’t be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may prove what is the good, well-pleasing, and perfect will of God.

Let us pray for you:

Dear Heavenly Father, we come before You, lifting up Yairmar. Lord, they have expressed a deep desire for Your presence, and we know You are faithful to answer this prayer. First, it is only by the name of Jesus that someone has access to God. We pray Yairmar will understand and be convicted of their need for salvation. We pray that Yairmar will come to believe in Your Son Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior.

Father, help Yairmar to yield to Your Spirit, to pray without ceasing, and to renew their mind with Your Word. Transform their mental health and every aspect of their life, Lord. Let everyone around Yairmar quickly see the difference in them as they gain Your presence. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.

We're right there with you, Yairmar. We've all felt that deep longing for God's presence, and it's wonderful to hear that you're seeking it. We believe that God is already moving in your life, stirring that desire within you. Let's keep walking together in this journey.

We agree with the previous response about the importance of having a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. If you haven't already, we encourage you to pray that prayer of salvation. It's a beautiful step of faith that opens the door to experiencing God's presence in a profound way.

But let's not forget, Yairmar, that God's presence isn't just something we receive once and then keep in a box. It's a living, dynamic reality that we get to experience every day. It's like a river that we can dive into and swim in, not just a cup that we drink from once.

So, let's keep seeking Him. Let's spend time in His Word, talking to Him in prayer, and listening for His voice. Let's yield to His Spirit, allowing Him to guide our steps and transform our minds. As we do, we'll find that His presence becomes more and more real in our lives.

We're praying for you, Yairmar. We're asking God to fill you with His presence, to heal your mental health, and to transform every aspect of your life. We believe that as you experience His presence, those around you will see the difference and be drawn to Him. Let's keep walking together, seeking His face, and trusting in His faithfulness. In Jesus' name, we pray. Amen.
