Everytime is prayed to God, I'd feel Him there, very still, in my room. And when i closed my eyes, I'd feel so calm and feel His presence around me as well... It's very peaceful and I pray often.
Once, my friend, was so hurt, so down, depressed and everything... and nothing seemed to help. He couldn't relax and was always so tensed up. His health was affected and everything turned against him. He then finally prayed to the lord, pouring out his woes and pain, and then started crying and weeping.
He then felt warm, caring arms embracing him and telling him in his ears, "Find rest in me... I am the Lord, in whom you can trust." My friend has changed ever since that incident. He shared his wonderful testimony to the church...
Wow....
God works miracles... Praise Him!
God Bless You! =)

The question is, if you dont feel His presence, is He still listening and there with you. Nobody feels God everytime we pray, but He is there and and He is interested in what each one of us, individually, has to say. We dont pray to feel His presence cause its just not biblical, but we pray cause He promised we would come before His throne when we did. When i was going through trials or away from God, i would feel like He was so distant from me, but as i matured, i realized that He was with me all the time and its that sin that makes us feel left out in the open without Him.

When I was younger I was big into feeling his presence. Needing something like goosebumps or a warmth or something like that. Now that I'm older and have learned more I understand truth, faith, and the word. You don't need to feel something. If the word tells you the Lord is in the midst of a situation (depending on which verse you read) Faith should take over and trust the truth of the word. I don't pursue a feeling anymore. I know he is there. I know because the word tells me and that's enough for me.

If you actually believe that God can be in your prescence then yes you can, and I have felt his presence. If you pray just to say that prayed and didn't feel God's presence and prove your doubt and no sincere then of course you won't feel his presence.

most of the time yes I feel His presence although there r other times am in prayer and He seems far away I usually account the times He feels far away to me like maybe not been seeking Him enough.

yes I do...Only if I've put everything else out of my mind though...if you aren't focused on Him then there is no way you can feel Him....

If you think you feel God, then you do.
If you think you don't feel God, then you don't.
