The cloud above the Tabernacle

Numbers  9:15-23
The cloud above the Tabernacle.
On the day the tabernacle, the tent of the covenant law, was set up, the cloud covered it. From evening till morning the cloud above the tabernacle looked like fire.
Whenever the cloud lifted from above the tent , the Israelites set out; wherever the cloud settled, the Israelites encamped.
At the Lord's command they encamped, and at the Lord's command they set out. They obeyed the Lord's order, in accordance with his command through Moses.
God's guidance in the wilderness was a clear and visible reality. Cloud by day and fire by night covering the Tent at the centre of their camp marked God's presence in their midst. When it settled again, they camped: no movement of the cloud, no movement of the people.
Why?
The cloud over Tabernacle means God is with them, Guiding them the way of future.
It is a visible sign and guidance. God was living with Israelite.
It was blessing that God is living with them.
Obey the word of God is the way God may living with us.
How?
When we be Christian and trust in Jesus Christ, God is with us through Holy Spirit.
