Promise 66 from Exodus 25:22
Ex. 25:22 - "There I will meet you; and from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubim which are upon the ark of the testimony, I will speak to you about all that I will give you in commandment for the sons of Israel." - I love how detailed God is. He gives such explicit detail in how the ark of the covenant should be built, then He tells Moses exactly where God can find Him. God makes sure His people know where to go to find Him. He makes sure the communication lines are always open to Him. Because of His great love for us, He longs for us to find Him so that we can chat with Him. You notice that God didn't tell Moses where He'll be so Moses can go and download his troubles to God? No, God says, "You can find me above the mercy seat and I will speak to you!" God longs to speak to us. He longs to give us instruction and direction. He longs to pour out His goodness on us, for He has great plans for us, not for calamity but for prosperity, good future and hope (Jer. 29:11). We are to go to Him so that He can tell us His great plans for us. That requires us to keep our mouths shut and listen. We have such a great God!
