Our instincts tell us to hide our sin. But we actually gain freedom when we confess it to God and let Jesus cover it with His blood instead.

Filled with Glory
When He tells us to move, we need to move. When He tells us to be still, then we need to be still. The pattern of His movement in our own lives may also be unpredictable. We too need to trust Him & know that if He hasn’t moved yet, it is because He wants us where we are. Also, if He moves too quickly or takes us somewhere that we do not want to go, He is Lord. Whether we know it or not, we want to be wherever He takes us because that is where His Presence dwells. Being in His will is the most comforting & safe place to be.
Beautiful & Costly
Can you picture what the Holy Place & the Most Holy Place could have looked like? This was a beautiful & costly place! It was God’s dwelling place, HIS HOLY HOUSE. It had to be beautiful, because He is beautiful. It had to be costly, because His value is beyond measure. To be in His Presence is more valuable than any created thing! When the priests walked into that room, they were supposed to see God in their minds eye: His BEAUTY; His WORTH; His LIGHT; His SACRIFICE; His GLORY. After-all, it was His house & they were in His Presence!
Knowing God More
While we are living on this earth, we will not ever fully see God. But He will show us the parts that we need to see when we need to see them.
