Exodus 40:34-38 - Homilies By J. Urquhart

Indwelling and guidance.

I. GOD OWNS THE DWELLING - PLACE SET UP ACCORDING TO HIS COMMANDMENTS . "Then the cloud," etc. "And Moses was not able to enter in," etc.; it was claimed as his own and taken possession of by the Lord.

1 . The soul which comes by God's way will be filled with God's glory.

2 . The Church which honours God he will glorify.

3 . The full glory of the perfected Church, the bride of Christ.

II. WHERE THE LORD DWELLS HE GUIDES . When the cloud was taken up they went onward; when it rested they rested.

1 . He is our guide in our onward journey.

2 . He is our guide into patience.
