(You’re Born Into God’s Glory)
TO THE BIBLE: Exodus 13:21-22
“And the Lord went before them by day in a pillar of cloud to lead the way, and by night in a pillar of fire to give them light, so as to go by day and night. He did not take away the pillar of cloud by day or the pillar of fire by night from before the people.”
LET’S TALK
When the children of Israel came out of Egypt, they carried their own atmosphere with them. As they journeyed in the wilderness for forty years, the desert heat didn’t scorch them by day, nor did its bitter cold freeze them to death at night.
That was because a pillar of cloud was present during the day to keep the heat away, and they were canopied by a pillar of fire at night that kept them warm. How extraordinary!
The Holy Spirit made this possible for them, and He does the same for us today. When you were born again, you were born into God’s glory, God’s spiritual cloud. You live there now.
The Bible says, “Therefore, if anyone is in Christ…” (2 Corinthians 5:17); that’s the place and environment of glory! Christ is a person, but He’s also a place. In Him (Christ), you’ve arrived; you’re at home!
When you’re conscious of this atmosphere of glory and you carry it with you everywhere, your joy and satisfaction overflow. When you face challenges, others can’t help but wonder how you go through unscathed.
They’re dazzled by how you could be happy, at peace, joyful and exuberant with praise to the Lord amid adversity. It’s because you’re “in Christ”; it’s a peculiar environment, where your joy is independent of circumstances. Glory to God!
