The Glory of God looked like a cloud and filled the
Tabernacle and Temple.
Likewise, are we not the Temple of the Holy Spirit. Paul tells us from 1 Cor 3 that we are the
Temple of God and that the Holy Spirit lives in us. Yes, the Shekinah lives in us, the Temple,
just like Solomon Temple and Moses tabernacle.
This brings us to the final Temple, the Millennium
Temple. We find from Ezek 43, that
Millennium Temple will be filled with the Glory of God, the Shekinah. Then Jesus said, this is the place of my
throne.
We have covered 4 inspiring examples of the Glory of
God, Holy Spirit or the Shekinah. Blessing
Stephen
(Exo 40:35 NIV)
Moses could not enter the Tent of Meeting because the cloud had settled
upon it, and the glory of the LORD filled the tabernacle.
(1 Ki 8:10-11 NIV)
When the priests withdrew from the Holy Place, the cloud filled the temple of the LORD.
{11} And the priests could not perform their service because of the cloud, for the glory of the
LORD filled his temple.
(2 Chr 7:1-2 NIV)
When Solomon finished praying, fire came down from heaven and consumed
the burnt offering and the sacrifices, and the glory of the LORD filled the temple. {2} The
priests could not enter the temple of the LORD because the glory of the LORD filled it.
(1 Cor 3:16 NIV)
Don't you know that you yourselves are God's temple and that God's Spirit lives in
you?
(Ezek 43:5 NIV)
Then the Spirit lifted me up and brought me into the inner court, and the glory of the
LORD filled the temple.
(Ezek 43:7 NIV)
He said: "Son of man, this is the place of my throne and the place for the soles of
my feet. This is where I will live among the Israelites forever. The
house of Israel will never again defile my holy name--neither they nor their
kings--by their prostitution and the lifeless idols of their kings at their
high places.
