I was reading in my Bible the other day and came across something that I thought was really interesting. I believe that a lot of people don’t see God as a right here right now God. They believe that he is a far off. This is not true, He is always near. In the book of Exodus it says that Moses pitched his tent far off from the rest of the group, and that every morning he would go into the tabernacle, and as he would enter tabernacle that a pillar of cloud would come and stand at the door and God would talk to him face to face as a man speaks with his friend. Now that is a close encounter of the God kind. But it seems to me that we are always looking up. The tabernacle represents our place prayer, it could our bedroom or a guest room. No matter, when we make the decision to have prayer, God is there and is ready to speak with us face to face. So that morning during my prayer time, I did not look up, but instead I turned towards the door of my prayer room with my eyes wide open and talked with God face to face.

Scripture Reference:

Exodus 33:9-11

And it came to pass, when Moses entered the tabernacle, that the pillar of cloud decended and stood at the door of the tabernacle, and the Lord talked with Moses. All the people saw the pillar of cloud standing at the tabernacle door, and all the people rose and worshiped, each man in his tent door. So the Lord spoke to Moses face to face, as a man speaks to his friend.
