In other words, do you envision God as a human-like fom as artistic depictions present him? And where do you perceive he exists: is it outside of yourself; in your heart, mind soul; everywhere? I'm being sincere; I'm curious as to individual's perception of what God is. If you could, also include what part of the world you're from.

The presence of God to me is in revelations,God revealing something to me.The only way for me to explain when God gives me a revelation is it seems to come into my mind and I understand it all at the speed of light.
When this happens God always gives it to me in a way that I know that I know it is him. Kentucky,USA

In Islam we are told "Worship God as if you can see him because if you do not see him be aware he is seeing you). This means that every move you make whather an action or anything you think He is aware of. You should not be able to physically describe Him because He is God Almighty and is Supreme. If He created you with all your complicated human body adn made you look the way you are , did you ever imagine how you would look with 3 eyes or no nose or even if the right side of your face was a replica of your left. How would the world be if teh coliour of the sky was not blue nor the sea and if the greenery around you was black adn not green in color. God is all around you in every creature adn landscape He so beautifully created.

When someone is born-again the Holy Spirit comes and lives inside of him as His holy temple forever. One way a Christian flows with the Holy Spirit is to pray in the Spirit or otherwise known as praying in tongues. When one prays in the Spirit one begins to speak with the Holy Spirit giving the heavenly language for him to speak. I am absolutely certain that God, the Holy Spirit, is with me, for whenever I pray in the Spirit, He prays through me (Acts 2:4). God is very real to me all the time.

there is an old saying wherever science ends religion begins.As long as man is able to scientifically comprehend any thing,it lies within the realm of logic and his 5 senses; but whatever cannot be explained it automatically becomes the realm of god.That is what history has proven.But then there is a realm beyond the 5 senses.It is here that god exists.( eg our senses can see a 3d object but what about 6d visual ,and it may be green in colour to us but the concept of colour may be something non existent in a 7d world)

Peace!
The Bible says God is a Spirit. It has no form. That's what Moses saw in the burning bush. But God took human form in the person of Jesus Christ.
However, only those who met him after his Resurrection can describe what his glorified body looked like. Unfortunately they are all dead. Nonetheless, Scripture tells us what his glorified body could do. It could go through walls, vanish, fly, etc.
So my answer to your question is no one really knows.

The presence of God...it is an absolute yet subjective to individuals because God is a personal God and people encounter God in His presence how God wants to meet with them. The presence of God in my opinion,it comes through His omnipresent nature, of which embodies glory and holiness.
In hebrew it is referred to as 'Kabod' which means weight, not just any weight but one that is glorious which we can say..."weight of His glory" or "weight of His presence".
His presence is one by which, you just realise His Holiness as much as your own guilt, albeit not one that condemns but one that convicts. One by which you sense His love through your lovelessness and unworthiness to have you acknowledge you have been made righteous and holy, that you are loved and accepted through the blood of Jesus. People often describe it as a mere tingling sensation...but there is so much more to that than meets the eye. Unfortunately nobody can really tell you what it is, you have to experience God yourself

God did create humans after His own image. Exactly how He look can not tell you but that He is real sometimes more real than this world. If you draw close to Him you will experience it more every day that God talk to you and that your soul long to return to Him. Good luck and hope you will experience it soon

whatever infernalfool.
God isn't human, he said so.
Lev 26:1 Ye shall make you no idols nor graven image, neither rear you up a standing image, neither shall ye set up any image of stone in your land, to bow down unto it: for I am the LORD your God.
Deu 4:16-19
Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image, the similitude of any figure, the likeness of male or female,
The likeness of any beast that is on the earth, the likeness of any winged fowl that flieth in the air,
The likeness of any thing that creepeth on the ground, the likeness of any fish that is in the waters beneath the earth:
And lest thou lift up thine eyes unto heaven, and when thou seest the sun, and the moon, and the stars, even all the host of heaven, shouldest be driven to worship them, and serve them, which the LORD thy God hath divided unto all nations under the whole heaven.
You'll just feel it when God says its time.
As for me, i really can't say. I usually feel God's presence when i feel bad or when i look at the stars. He just has this way of inspiring me.
I dunno, haha i seriously told God sometime ago that if he was real, He'd make me feel it when i needed it. and everytime ever since, He's just been so good. But it doesn't mean i don't experience bad things. My best friend went home to be with Jesus three weeks ago.
I'm in the philippines these days.

God is an invention of man. Chance is god and chance is a conception
