Ex 40:36-37
In all the travels of the Israelites, whenever the cloud lifted from above the tabernacle, they would set out; 37 but if the cloud did not lift, they did not set out — until the day it lifted
NIV
“The cloud of glory is moving, move with the cloud, move with the cloud…” What an awesome truth James Dorothy shared when he wrote this song released in 1997.
We are living in a hasty generation. The virtue of patience is fast disappearing from among us. The world seems to be in haste, things are happening so fast. As technology is developing at an exponential rate, so is the confusion and crime. In the middle of all the chaos, the kingdom of heaven is indeed advancing as well, not just advancing, but forcefully advancing ( see Matt 11:12 NIV).
In times like this, the only way we can survive as Christians is to move at God’s pace. The Lord wants to lead us through the valley of the shadow of death, but we must be willing to move with the cloud. We must lay down our own compasses and look to Jesus, the author and finisher of our faith. We must be willing, like the Jews in the days of Moses, to ‘journey only the day the cloud is taken up and to camp when the cloud is not taken up’.
Friend, if we must make it to the end in this race that has already been marked out for us, we must move with the cloud of His divine and glorious presence ‘throughout all our journeys’ on this earth.
Go into today determined to submit yourself to the lordship of Jesus Christ.
Prayer: Father, please show me your ways, teach me your paths and lead me today, in Jesus name I pray. Amen.
