Indeed it came to pass, when the trumpeters and singers were as one, to make one sound to be heard in praising and thanking the Lord, and when they lifted up their voice with the trumpets and cymbals and instruments of music, and praised the Lord, saying: “For He is good, for His mercy endures forever”, that the house, the house of the Lord, was filled with a cloud, so that the priests could not continue ministering because of the cloud, for the glory of the Lord filled the house of God.
In charismatic churches especially, there is often talk about the ‘presence of the Lord’. But it is so much more than church talk. It is the daily realization that from Him, and through Him, and to Him are all things; that we live and move and have our being in God, whose mercies do indeed endure forever.
