VBS will be held July 21, 2013 through July 25, 2013.
Wednesday, September 5, 2012 – 1 Kings 8:1-21
The temple and all of its furnishings are completed, and the temple is ready to be dedicated. But before the dedication can happen, one more thing is needed – the Ark of the Covenant. Remember the how the waters of the Jordan River were parted when those carrying the Ark first stepped into the water. Remember how the Ark was carried around the walls of Jericho seven times before the city was destroyed. The Ark was the very presence of God among the people.
As the Ark was carried into the Temple, the presence of God filled the place like a thick smoke, reminding the people of the presence of God as He led the people out of Egypt as a pillar of smoke by day and as a pillar of fire by night. The same God who delivered them then is with them then.
And that same God is still with us. Even though we might not experience smoke filling the church during worship (because if we did we would call the fire department), even though He is not physically visible in our day to day life, He is with us always!
