Exodus 40:35 NKJV
And Moses was not able to enter the tabernacle of meeting, because the cloud rested above it, and the glory of the Lord filled the tabernacle.
Exodus 40:35 NKJV
It must have been a powerful and life-changing event for all who beheld and saw the glory of God fill the tabernacle. Even Moses could not enter because God's holy and pure presence rested in the tabernacle.
This is a picture of the new tabernacle of God that is established by Jesus Christ. In the new covenant, God cleansed us by His precious blood, sanctified us with His word and seated us with Him in the heavenly places.
The Bible teaches us in 1 Corinthians 3:16 that we are the temple of God. The presence of God is now in every believer and the glory of God has rested in every person who confessed Jesus as Lord.
The glory of God is in our spirit waiting to be manifested by our actions. When we follow God's word and do what He says, His glory will be revealed.
Every day we can walk in this privilege and carry God's glory everywhere we go. We need to be conscious of His presence and what we have become in Christ.
We are created from the ground but came to life by the breath of the Almighty God, not to host the dust of the ground, but to be the vessel that carries the glory of God here on earth.
This is the glorious life Christ has set for every believer, that in everything we do, we carry the glory of God in every office of ministry.
It is time we honour God as His tabernacle, be conscious of His presence and learn to walk according to His glory.
We put away every selfish ambition, we pull down every imagination that is against the image of God and live in His holiness.
God has made this possible for us to live in this manner through His Son Jesus Christ. We must not waste anything but live fully in the way God has made for us to live.
Let us live conscious of His presence, His glory and know His heartbeat for us.
Live in the blessings,
Ps Ambrose
