God’s House

My pastor did a sermon a few weeks ago on “Where Glory Dwells”. He asked us if we knew the purpose of our salvation. It is for the worship of the most high God. He told of the Garden of Eden, where God put His first creation of people, Adam and Eve. He told about the beautiful relationship God had with them and how they enjoyed his presence. Sin entered the garden and changed our relationship with God until eternity. He then went on to talk to us about our study in Exodus and about God dwelling in the cloud by day and fire by night so he could lead His chosen people, Israel. He told the people, in great detail, how to build His Tabernacle, where He would dwell and that the Levites would be His priest. He told us about in the Gospels, how Jesus is God’s dwelling place. And in present day, our worship of God in the church is through His indwelling Spirit in us. And by us having His spirit in us, we will take Him to the nations. We need to always remember that we need to run from sin. We need to strive for holiness. God deserves nothing less from His people. Ps.19:14 Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in your sight. O Lord, my rock and my redeemer. In the new creation, after God completes judgment, He will dwell in heaven and come down with the New Jerusalem and we will dwell with Him, and be able to delight in His presence. All creation will be filled with His Glory! John 1:14 And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth. Rev.21:3 And I heard a loud voice from the throne saying,” Behold, the dwelling place of God is with man. Halleluiah and Amen!!!!
