You Lord

"...They have heard that You, LORD, are among these people; that You, LORD, are seen face to face and Your cloud stands above them, and You go before them in a pillar of cloud by day and in a pillar of fire by night" (‭Numbers‬ ‭14‬:‭14‬ NKJV). Seek the Lord with all your heart and you will not regret it. The only way Moses was going to continue his walk with the Lord was as long as the Lord was with him. God was always there. All Moses had to do was call upon Him. Moses learned quickly that without the Lord He was not going to get very far. He could not stand before Pharaoh on his own, but only through the power of God. Moses recognized the cloud that covered them during the day. God had the children of Israel follow the cloud, which was a representation of the glory of God, in the day time. If one stepped out from the covering of the cloud, they would fall into heat exhaustion. The cloud kept them from the great heat of the desert and protected them from the scorching sun that would burn their skin. At night, Moses learned to follow the pillar of fire, which represented Christ and the glory of God. It kept them from freezing during the cold desert nights. Moses understood the presence of God, and he learned that by getting into God's presence daily he would have victory. There is no exception for the believer today. We too must follow the glory of God and get into His presence daily. The Apostle Paul also learned that there was nothing greater than the presence of God in his life. He counted everything he had learned before, in his old life, a loss to win Christ. We must seek God for our lives. God bless you. Amen
