It Is Written

Contributed by Terry Laughlin on Nov 3, 2018

If you want to meet God on a daily basis, you must take a decision to pitch your tent far from all earthly things or attachments, including social media, desires and even needs. Before you meet God, you must leave all your earthly things outside. You must come with the sole intention of meeting him.

Moses took his tent and pitched it outside the camp, far from the camp, and called it the tabernacle of meeting. And it came to pass that everyone who sought the LORD went out to the tabernacle of meeting which was outside the camp. Exodus 33:7 To meet God on a daily basis, Moses took his tent and ...read more
