God Dwells with You
Exodus 25
Ex 25:8 Then have
them make a sanctuary for me, and I will dwell among them.
PROMISES—the Bible is full of God’s promises.
Other names for promises are covenants and testaments. God promises much to his
people in the desert. Those promises are part of his plan to give you the promise
of salvation today and forever.
Do
you see the promise here? God says he will dwell among them. Do you grasp the
wonder of the promise? God dwells among his people. Pause, my friend, and
consider this. (Are you pausing and considering?)
The
God, who has created the vast and impenetrable universe, promises to dwell
among his people!
Conditions
come with this promise. In the desert, the Hebrews must do certain things and
prepare a special place for God made exactly as God instructs them. They
respond, and God comes.
Then
Jesus, the Son of God, came to dwell among us and show God’s love. Jesus
instructs his people in the truth. And today, Jesus has sent the Holy Spirit to
come and dwell within you as you
trust Jesus as your Savior.
Do
you see God’s plan and progression? The Father comes. The Son comes. The Spirit
comes. And it is all for one purpose: Your Salvation!
Prepare
your heart to welcome the Spirit to dwell inside you. Spend time each day in
the Bible. Know the truth to pray and listen with your heart for the Spirit to
teach you. Dwelling within you, the Spirit will guard your heart and guide your
house.
LIFE Connection: it
is easy to trust your God when you invite him to dwell with you.
