September 6

Ezekiel's Great Temple Vision - Ezekiel 44:4-31, 45:1-25, 46:1-24, 47:1-23, 48:1-35

The special portion you are to offer to the Lord will be 25,000 cubits long and 10,000 cubits wide. This will be the sacred portion for the priests. It will be 25,000 cubits long on the north side, 10,000 cubits wide on the west side, 10,000 cubits wide on the east side and 25,000 cubits long on the south side. In the center of it will be the sanctuary of the Lord. Ezekiel 48:9-10

God not only has a place for His presence in the Temple - the Most Holy of Holies; He also has property in the Promised Land - the sanctuary of the Lord. So what was that like? What happened on that piece of property? Was it like the Garden? Did God walk there in the cool of the evening? I imagine God liking the world He made so much there were times when He just walked through nature, considering and enjoying it. Is that what He did with the land He claimed for Himself. And what would I do if on my next hiking trip on the mountain, I happened upon God. In fact, most times I do.

Lord knows.
